Need a Previous Version of Strummed Acoustic 1 (V1.0/1.1)
I updated Strummed Acoustic 1 to v1.2 and now it won't work with Kontakt 8 or 7 because I can't update to v8.4 without updating my OS, something my studio isn't comfortable with due to concerns with compatibility issues with other plugins. I REALLY need a download for V1 but its not listed on the "Previous Versions" page…

Kontakt 8 Crashing FL Projects?
Recently ran into an issue with where I'll open any project in FL Studio that uses Kontakt 8 and they just don't load. I can only get projects to load by using the diagnostic tool to remove all instances of Kontakt 8 and then reload the recovered files. I reinstalled Kontakt and that temporarily resolved it, but the issue…

Kontakt 8 not detected in Logic Pro 11.2.1

Sound Session String Pro
Hello, I'm having a problem: after installing the Session String Pro instrument in Kontakt 8 and Komplete Kontrol MK3, the instrument doesn't play when you tap it with the mouse to hear the sound you want. However, if you load it into the MK3 controller to play, it works fine. This only happens with that instrument. The…

Session Bassist User patterns
Is there a way that modified patterns within Session Bassist can be saved as User patterns and also then even be shared or accessed across all 4 different Session Bassist products? Also, how does one reset patterns to their factory default after modifications were made?

Record midi from the Session Guitarist Picked Nylon?
Is there a way to record midi from the Session Guitarist Picked Nylon? I mean the output, what you hear. It seems like the phrases you get are audio and not midi. The only thing I've come up with so far is bouncing it as audio and use au audio to midi converter, the results are usually very imprecise and awful compared to…

Kontakt 7 Refuses to open after update but works outside of DAW
I just received an update via Native Access for Kontakt 7 (Kontakt 7.10.9 (2025-08-12)) but after installing it, Kontakt 7 no longer opens but requests that I contact the manufacturer. When I open it independently (oustide the daw) it opens up just fine. Please help.

Please add a DOUBLE TAP to return encoder to default (or better yet preset default) value
NI please add a DOUBLE TAP to return encoder to default (or better yet preset default) value to both KK and Kontakt. This would be especially helpful for fine tuning knobs that are so hard to precisely adjust with the encoders. Of course as it might some annoy other users, you may want to add it as an option. Please like…

Wishlist: Custom tagging and drag and drop thumbnails for non-player libraries
I know this has been asked before, but if there would be one thing I could put on the wishlist, than it would be a better handling of non-player/third party libraries. Yes, there is that 'trick' how to add thumbnails, but it is super time consuming, and I a simple drag & drop solution would be amazing - as would be custom…

Kontakt 7 vs 8
I don't care about AI songwriter apps - AI should be finessing the sound, not the notes because the notes are the human's business - ANYWAY, so to compare 7 and 8, is there anything in the performance, sound library, or sound sculpting abilities that should convince me to do the upgrade? Or, is K7 just as good?

Hello, I have a full license for Kontakt. I use Kontakt 7. Since the latest updates of certain VSTs, I have been unable to use some of them (Picked Nylon and Acoustic for example). Where can I find updates for these VSTs? I want to use an older version to maintain compatibility with Kontakt 7. I tried the Kontakt 8 player…

Older projects and product library updates
Hi all, I just noticed that in the release notes several libraries mentioning the following… "Minimum Kontakt requirements: Kontakt 8.4.0, if you don't own this version you won't be able to use the product" It appears to be most of the Session Guitarist series. I have Kontakt Player 8.6.0. … so will that work with these…

Can anyone help with this STRUMMED ACOUSTIC issue??
Hi, Team. I revisited a couple of old sessions I did while I was on the road years back in an attempt to re-record things I liked and finally finish a couple of songs for a loved one. The original sessions used to work fine (regardless of the demo issues), but when I loaded it today after a few years, I got this: Does…

Kontakt Panning Left Logic Pro X
Hi, When I load a Kontakt instrument it plays everything in only the left channel. I can "fix" it by adjusting the pan on the track but I can't find a way in Kontakt to make it work right. I'm loading the instrument as a Stereo instrument. The pieces default their output to fx→main out. I can't find where the pan for that…
