Kontakt 8 cannot open GIU from old NKC/NKR
Hi there, I have a few old libraries NKC/NKR for Kontakt Full stored with K5.0. They open perfectly with K6 and K7 but they do not show the custom UI graphics with K8. I tried a test, and opened a library in question with K6.7 and stored the patch only. After that, K8 could load the UI graphics. Do I have to re-save all…

Sesson Guitar Series updated - but not the GUIs (come on, NI)
Nice to see oldest instruments getting new features. This is how life cycle management of instruments series should be. However again it is extremely frustrating seeing basically all intruments are still pixelated. Why not update the GUI if you make a mid cycle refresh. This is the same issue we just saw with the current…

Kontakt 8 not loading libraries on external drive
I have some libraries stored on an external drive (Albion One, Arkhis, and others). Native Access shows the correct installation path for these (on the external drive) but when I start Kontakt 8 it does not load the libraries on the external drive. It looks like it can load locally installed libraries. These libraries seem…

Is the Retrigger/Legato function in the stock AHDSR bugged?
The AHDSR controlling the volume seems to not be working as described in the info tab. When Retrigger is disengaged it should "keep its current position until the last note has been released" However whenever you play more than one note in this mode, releasing ANY note, regardless of the order in which it was played, makes…

Kontakt 8 unstable in FL Studio
Hi everyone, I have a recurring problem with Kontakt 8 in FL Studio: Each time I use multiple instances of Kontakt (one per FL pattern), at some point the plugin will become unstable.

Looking for someone willing to sell me their Kontakt version 7 license
Hi, I run exclusively on Linux and unfortunately only version 7 of Kontakt works. Starting at version 8 it can no longer be used on Linux. I currently have the "Kontakt Player 7" working well in Ardour via yabridge + wine, and Native Access 1.14.1. So all I miss now to have Kontakt work is a serial number for version 7.…
