Waves software version 4.0 initially offers OS X support for TDM, AS, RTAS and VST, with other formats to follow

Version 4.0 will initially support TDM, AS, RTAS and VST, while forthcoming releases will support the full gamut of plug-in formats under Macintosh OS X. The powerful, UNIX-based multithreaded nature of the OS X operating system makes it ideal for audio, and allows the highly efficient DSP optimization coding schemes developed by Waves to be used to their fullest capability, maximizing single and dual processor availability for DSP operations, freeing up the power needed to run many more plug-ins, and in the case of host-based systems such as Nuendo 2.x, making it possible to handle significantly more tracks and simultaneous functions.

The KONTAKT 1.2 update and Direct from Disk extension are now available on NI website. KONTAKT 1.2 comes with many new functions such as a release trigger for triggering groups by releasing notes as well as a key and controller activator for group activation either by keyboard commands or via a Midi controller. The update also comes with a Round and Random Robbin function for consecutive cycling through groups upon keystrokes or for random cycling through groups for playback and much more.

The separately available Direct from Disk extension enables KONTAKT to
play samples directly from the hard drive. Sample size will no longer be
limited by the amount of physical RAM - an instrument can be as large as
available hard drive space. All KONTAKT instruments will load many times faster than RAM-based instruments.

The Direct from Disk extension requires the update to KONTAKT 1.2
