Default Virtual MIDI keyboard & Kontakt

Why can't I use the virtual keyboard with kontakt ? It also seems that I can't record MIDI. I tried various configurations and it still doesn't works. Anyone can help me ?

Hm, I have no issues here doing just that... Define "various configurations"?

I enabled "use computer keyboard for midi" in Kontakt, enabled everything in "send midi to outside world", and tried "merge with midi input" in reaper, but nothing worked, i still can't use it.

You need to set the input of the track on which Kontakt is loaded to Virtual MIDI Keyboard, and of course, VMK MUST BE FOCUSED.

It won't work if VMK is in the background because Reaper is catching other keyboard shortcuts...

I know this is an ancient thread, but I was having a problem where Kontakt wouldn't work with Reaper's built in virtual midi keyboard and I found that I could resolve the issue by making sure the keyboard was set to MIDI channel 1. It appears that, at least by default, Kontact only accepts MIDI on channel 1.
