it's awesome! I got it a while back and it's great to play with!
figuring out how it works is a mystery even with the manual, though.. I got as far as mapping samples across the synth.

The basic areas of kontakt should be pretty easy to get the hang of if you play around with it for a good hour or so. The more advanced stuff like writting scripts will take some time learning. Its great for adding lfo's to things like sample start and delay rate for some good variations in your sample. I love the way native instruments sets up their lfo rates too. Give you a good control over the way the sounds go.
For more basic intuitive sample mapping, I always suggest intakt. It allows on the fly mapping and sample arrangement. Chopping up of beats and then arranging where the sounds go isn't easier.

how do I change the frequency of the pitch modulation thingie I put on? I can only make it go at one rate and the only slider can only change both depth and rate at the same time and not by much, mind you...

which pitch modulation thingie? There is more than one pitch modulation option. Did you assign it from and to a source?

When you turn on modulation, you have to set up a source, say an LFO or a midi CC. Then you need to assign it to one of the knobs in your instrument. Those drop down menus will show you what you can choose. The slider just decides amount, or wet and dry.

Right click on the knob you want modulated. Choose LFO. A little LFO window thing will appear at the bottom of your sample. Edit from there. That should show you how it works.

It's fun to see you help people with their IT problems. What do you get out of it?

Nothing much. Its kind of a spiritual thing. Humans will be judged by historians by their art and their technology. I feel its important to help the cycle by making it less troublesome for people trying to practice their art. Therefor, in helping people as much as possible with their art, I act - to an extent -as one of many catalysts for people that both represent and (hopefully) further our culture.
As far as I can see, the best way to go about this is to do it trying to get as little recognition for it as possible.

I don't necessarily believe the people that make the art are as important as what the art is representing in their environment, or the thousands of people that helped make that art possible. The people who make it are just as responisble for that art as what influenced it and the people who developed the technology for that art.

well, on the left there's that explorer like thing and it has a few tabs. I haven't got the program here as I'm not at home, but there is a tab under which one gets a list of different modulators.. I then select the sine one and drag it on top of the button I want it to apply to. A new control strip appears, and the button gets modulated, but the problem is that there is only one control for changing something, and this control only simultaneously changes both modulation rate and level and not by very much...
