# AIR Music Technology — Jura — community NKS pack

> ⚠️ **PROTOTYPE / PRIVATE DOGFOOD CONTENT — NOT core app source. NOT an official or vendor
> redistributable claim. License/redistribution status: UNKNOWN.**

A **community-sourced** NKS pack for the **AIR Music Technology — Jura** VST3 (instrument), committed
only for prototype/private dogfooding. Quarantined under `content-packs/prototype/` — never mixed into
`app/` or runtime source. A large pack: **503 presets** across Plucks, Arps, Synths, Leads, Pads,
Chords, Bass and FX banks (plus two 106-preset Factory Banks).

## Provenance
- **Source:** Native Instruments community forum — created/shared by
  **[Mercury](https://community.native-instruments.com/profile/418007/Mercury)** (the presets carry the
  NISI comment *"NKSF by Mercury"*):
  <https://community.native-instruments.com/discussion/comment/76789?utm_source=community-share#Comment_76789>
  **Thanks and credit to Mercury.**
- **Imported:** 2026-06-28 · **Platform tested:** macOS
- **Plugin tested:** `/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST3/Jura.vst3`
- **Contents:** 503 `.nksf` presets · 6 images (vendor artwork) · NI database JSON/`.meta`.

## Previews stripped
The pack's **503 `.ogg` audio previews (~20 MB, ~90% of the original)** were **removed before
committing** — Topo doesn't use NKS previews yet, so they'd be pure git weight. They remain in the
original source zip if a preview feature ever lands. (`previews_stripped: true` in the manifest.)

## License / redistribution
**`unknown_prototype_only`.** The `.nksf` carry AIR's factory sound state (AIR's IP) — though authored
into NKS by Mercury — and the images are vendor artwork. No license in the pack; forum availability is
**not** redistribution permission. Committed as a pragmatic prototype decision **only**. Same boundary
as curated art. See **RACK-101** (research now on the tracker idea).

## Removal / replacement policy
Remove/replace if **official AIR / inMusic NKS** ships (announced inMusic↔NI, 2026) or any licensing
concern surfaces.

## Priority / override (locked)
Official installed NKS always wins; this pack is **fallback only**; never overwrite the user's NKS.

## Prototype install
**Quit Topo Rack first**, then:
```sh
scripts/install_prototype_content_packs.sh --refresh ~/TopoLibrary
```
Copies the pack into your NKS user-content root (additive) and refreshes. Restart Topo Rack — the 503
presets appear under *AIR Music Technology / Jura*. Also visible to Komplete Kontrol (without previews).

## Known technical caveat
Like other AIR NKS, the NICA mapping uses **VST3 paramIDs**, so the macro row won't resolve correctly
until the paramID-aware join (**RACK-101**). **Preset browsing + load + identity are valid today.**
