NI DIscovery Series package: Accesible from within GP?

General discussion about Gig Performer
1

I’m planning on purchasing the Native Instruments package, “Discovery Series: Middle East”

https://www.native-instruments.com/en/products/komplete/world/middle-east/

Will this package and its user interface be accessible from within Gig Performer as a plugin?

For example, will I be able to integrate a selected ethnic instrument, with its custom scale, into a Gig Performer rack space?

Well, you still need Kontakt or Kontakt Player, then you can use Host Automation to assign “Instrument” parameters AND then yes, map Gig Performer widgets to above mentioned host automation.

This is usually true for most Kontakt “Instruments”/Libraries.

As @keyman noted, that “package” is in fact just a library that requires the Kontakt plugin.

NI only sells a few actual plugins (and the best way to get them is to buy one of their Komplete packs, e.g. KOMPLETE 14)

Everything else is typically either an instrument for Kontakt or an ensemble for Reaktor. They also have some patch libraries for their synth plugins (Massive, FM8, etc)

There are also numerous third party instruments for Kontakt out there.

Thanks for your helpful comments.

Since the package I’m interested in is sold as a Komplete pack,

  https://www.native-instruments.com/en/products/komplete/world/middle-east/

I believe that I’ll be able to access it from within Gig Performer via the Komplete Kontrol plugin.

It is a Kontakt Library, no need to use it in Komplete Kontrol.
All Parameters should be available via HOST Automation provided by Kontakt.

Excellent. Fewer access layers is always better. Just today reading about Host Automation. Thanks for the suggestion.
