Kontakt and Studio One on Mac
I have a Mac running OS 15 and Studio One. Kontakt 6 Player works just fine, though some libraries are missing (I'm assuming they require 7 or 8 Player to function). I've downloaded 7 and 8 multiple times and reran the plugin scanner multiple times. I cannot get Kontakt 7 or 8 to show up in Studio One. Any ideas on how to…

Kontakt 8 Corrupts the OpenGL Context Upon Instantiation
I am a developer creating a VST host on macOS, and I'm using Kontakt 8 VST3 as one of my test plugins. My app does a lot of video rendering, and therefore must maintain close control of the current OpenGL context. As soon as I instantiate Kontakt 8, my app throws an assertion error saying that the current OpenGL context is…

Kontakt 7 freezes my mainstage on my new m4 macbook pro
Hi. I just bought a new m4 pro macbook pro and used Migration Assistant to move everything from my 2020 intel macbook pro. For some reason my mainstage projects, which rely heavily on kontakt libraries, keep freezing (pointer turning to 'thinking' icon) for about 10 minutes. I tried a new project with only native mainstage…

Reszie or Scale Kontakt Instrument Editor
Hi, Is it possible to scale the Kontakt instrument editor? Using Kontakt on 4K+ resolution screens is almost impossible, given how small it is. Appologies, I'm sure this question has been asked many times before but I've never found a resolution to it. If its not possible now, is a scaleable UI, even fixed scalling…

Both K6 arpeggiators don't stop (and often don't start)
I encountered this problem awhile back with the regular arpeggiator, and it's also happening with the (sync) arpeggiator. I was using K5 for years and never had these problems. Over on VI forum, EvilDragon suggested the script editor being open was the problem but even with that closed I get either no playback or, most…

How to get non-player (Custom) libraries added to kontakt 7 into kontakt 8
I had added many non-player libraries to my Kontakt 7 as "Custom Libraries". Kontakt 8 does not show any of those in the main window. Where is that data for custom libraries stored for Kontakt 7. And why didn't the Kontakt 8 install carry those over?

Metadata and samples
I have a instrument that contains samples in compressed format, (ncw). Some of the samples contain loops that was added to the original wav-files before importing it into Kontakt and compressing the samples. If I now resave the instrument, as uncompressed wav-files, the looppoints are not present in the samples. Is there…

Editing Action Strings Phrases
I'm using a Mac Ventura, running Actions Strings 2.2 on Kontakt 8 in cubase 14 Pro. My problem comes when I try to edit a phrase. The instruction is to double-click on the pattern required at a certain point in the bar. This only works if the double-click speed is ultra fast. Adjusting the time between clicks in the Mac…

Komplete Start, Kontakt, VST plugins... which? where?
I haven't used any of the Cremona Quartet instruments in a while and realized recently that NI updated them and made them unusable in version 6 of the Kontakt Plug-in, which is the version I purchased them with. They now require Kontakt 7, which is apparently no longer available. I checked out the Komplete Start Getting…

How would I go about making my own Kontakt library that shows up on the main menu of Kontakt 8
I recently recorded a whole bunch of samples from a ton of instruments I own and have painstakingly sat there and made them all into NKIs. Rather than having to drag and drop all of the instruments into Kontakt, I would like to have them show up the same way as stuff like the Kontakt Factory Library 2 and all other…

I'm experiencing audio engine hiccups & complete freezes with a particular library - the Impact Soundworks Pearl Concert Grand, whilst playing using a controller. On my main machine, I've lowered the voice count as far as 80, and it's still happening. On an older, slower machine, it seems to be working at 64. I haven't…

Automation tracks in cakewalk or cubase
How do I make the parameter automations from Kontakt 7 and 8 appear separately on each MIDI track in Cakewalk or Cubase? They only appear on the Kontakt track, and I need each MIDI track to have its own separate automation. I'm using only one instance of Kontakt with multiple instruments. For example, I have violin, viola,…

Do two Kontakt tracks always crash a DAW?
I loaded Electric Sunburst Deluxe into two tracks in the same Studio One multitrack session, which then crashed. Does that always happen? Would two different guitar packs work in the same session?
