If I am understanding what you are saying right, (which I hope I am), then can you not just load up another Kontakt 2? Seems like you just need more ouputs with Kontakt which you can achieve if you are full, by just loading up another one. In SX it will load it, and just call it Kontakt 2 #2.

each instrument that you load into a multi has it's own midi-channel, this is where you need to assign stuff.. if you don't want them to pay alltogether, toggle the Omni-mode off and choose a seperate midi-channel.

k, glad you gottit sorted
you can ask me anytime smt about cubase sx3 or kontakt or other stuff
was hooked solely on reason for a while, but i'm more&more gradually switching to cubase only...
cubase+reason rewired is STILL THE workhorse that fits my needs.

cheers

create a second instance of kontakt

OR

one instance holds a maximum of 16 different midi and audio output channels.

you can use multiple instruments on one midi channel by f.e. mapping the first instrument into the lower keyboard register, and the second into the higher. (or three, four, five ... this way you could potentially load 88 different instruments, samples and send em through one channel, but then again, why would you wanna do that)

then again you are obligated to send it through the same output, which is not really a problem when you're f.e. putting rhodes and piano or rhodes and organ samples through the same channel (or any other similar combination, in terms of frequency range that is)
but which is kind of undone when you wanna combine kicks/hats or something like that.
or you could, but create your internal balance first before recording/programming inside your track again.
