Kontakt works basically the same running as a plugin (you can even load standalone projects into it) but with the added convenience of not having to keep track of multiple project files an maintaining a complex setup.
You'd need to route the MIDI and audio from Kontakt through virtual cables. Quite a bit of setting up to do, so no quick explanation for it. I would use ReaRoute (re-run Reaper installer if you didn't choose it the first time) for audio and LoopMIDI for MIDI.
But again, I'd recommend avoiding it if possible.

thanks for the reply.
To be honest my plugin-Kontakt is too old to run certain libraries, and I was looking to get the Portable which seemed more mobile CPU wise etc and could run any of the newer libraries.
Sounds like a pain in the anus I'm not willing to go through what you're describing, oh dear yes. I guess I'll just look for other solutions outside Ktkt.
