User Manual

For this you will have to import the files into the Library first. Importing files does not mean
they will be moved from the directory they currently reside in, they will only be referenced by
the Browser. That’s why whenever you move files, make sure to update the paths to their re-
spective directories in the Library page of the Preferences panel, as described in section
↑2.6.3, Preferences – Library Page.
The Files pane allows you to import whole folders. All KOMPLETE KONTROL-compatible files
found in the selected folder(s) will be imported.
To import a folder, do the following:
1. Click the Files tab at the top of the Browser to open the Files pane.
2. In the Files pane, navigate to the folder containing the folder you want to import. To do
this, use the various tools described in the previous sections.
3. Select the desired folder as described above.
4. Click the IMPORT button at the bottom right of the Browser.
You will be presented with the Attribute Editor.
5. In the Attribute Editor, tag the files you are about to import to the Library as described in
section ↑6.5.2, Editing the File Tags and Properties.
6. When you are done, click OK at the bottom right of the Browser to import the files to the
Library.

All KOMPLETE KONTROL-compatible files found in the selected folder(s) are imported to
your Library. They are added as user content (User icon selected in the Content selector
of the Library pane, see section ↑6.2.2, Choosing Between Factory and User Content).
Furthermore, the paths of the imported folders are added to the list of user libraries in
the User pane of the Library page in the Preferences panel—see section ↑2.6.3, Prefer-
ences – Library Page for more information on this.
You can also apply/remove tags at any time after they are imported. However, it may be
best to tag files on import, since it will make it easier to find them later.
