15. LOAD/SAVE COMMANDS
15.1. General Information
File Formats
It is possible to load and save the following file formats:
• KONTAKT arrays (.nka files)
• MIDI files (.mid) to be used with the file commands in KSP
• IR samples (.wav) to be used with KONTAKT's convolution effect (loading only)
Async Handling
Loading and saving files cannot be executed in real time. This is why all load/save commands re-
turn a unique value upon completion of their action. You can use this value in combination with
$NI_ASYNC_ID
and 
$NI_ASYNC_EXIT_STATUS
within the 
on_async_complete
callback to
check whether the the command has completed its action, and whether or not the loading or sav-
ing was successful.
Path Handling
All file paths in KSP use a slash character (/) as a folder separator. Backslash characters are not
supported. The full path has to start with a slash character “/”. 
Examples
Factory folder on OS X:
/Library/Application Support/Native Instruments/Kontakt 6/
Factory folder on Windows:
/C:/Program Files/Common Files/Native Instruments/Kontakt 6/
When loading or saving files with an absolute path as opposed to loading from the Resource Con-
tainer, always use path variables in combination with 
get_folder()
.
