Import Content Option in Kontakt 8 Gives "Incompatible Files" Error on Almost All Libraries
Almost every library I own that worked perfectly as a tile in the library browser in Kontakt 7 can not be imported into Kontakt 8 without giving me a "Incompatble Files" error on hundreds of files ending in .ncw This is happening to multiple libraries from Zero G, Sonuscore, etc… Batch resave doesn't resolve this either.

Vintage Organs - Aftertouch Swell Seems Backwards to me
When applying aftertouch, it creates a negative swell (decreasing volume). This is counter-intuitive to me. I understand Hammond organs likely had no aftertouch, but other synths I have used, normally aftertouch mapped to volume or CC 11, or a filter, normally increases volume and/or brightens timbre. I have gone into…

Missing components in WINE?
I know NI doesn't support Linux in any way or form (much to their own detriment really), but could it be possible to at least get to know what components/DLL's/libraries are actually needed to install it?
