Crackling/poor audio if app isn't in foreground in windows 11
SO I have a weird issue that just started happening within the last couple months. I'm running kontakt standalone without a daw on windows 11 to help when I'm doing school online.

How to remove a library that never really existed from the Kontakt libraries list?
Odd thing happening here. I have a non-existent library simply called 'Instruments' showing in the list of libraries in Kontakt 7 and Kontakt 8 Player. I know I can hide it from showing in the library, but I'd like something that doesn't exist to not appear anywhere. Previously this also showed up in Native Access, where I…

Older libraries need Kontakt version indexing in Download Manager
Hi, I just found out that by now (no idea when that was added) you can download older library versions so the work with older Kontakt versions. But there's several library versions available and none of them shows which version of Kontakt the library actually needs, so it's absolutely impossible to find out which would be…

NI have not fixed the issues with recent Session Guitarist Updates
NI seem to be closing down discussion about the issues related to the botched up updates of the Session Guitarist Series. They are simply saying if you are having troubles you should roll back to previous versions not containing the update.

I have bought and downloaded Kontakt 8, but I still have no library inside Kontakt 8?
Hello, I'm new to Kontakt and I am having trouble with my library. I bought Kontakt 8 recently for £269 and have downloaded the native instruments app on MacOS. On the app, I have installed Kontakt 8, which opens a seperate 'Kontakt 8' application where all the sounds I bought should be. But when I go on the Kontact 8…

Any problems operating Kontakt on a Windows Tablet PC (e.g. Microsoft Surface)?
Is anyone using Kontakt on a Windows tablet? If so, is it all working as it should? I want to buy a tiny MIDI keyboard and tablet to perform in a band setting (as a backup to my usual instrument). I'm already heavily invested in Komplete 15, so being able to use that in live performance makes most sense. I want to avoid…

I saw the news today that updates were available for all past Session Guitar Libraries, so I updated all available. Now Picked Acoustic, Electric Sunburst, Strummed Acoustic, Strummed Acoustic 2, Picked Nylon, Electric Vintage Guitars are not loading.

Careful What you wish for
I was pleased and fac#scinated to hear that NI were going to update all the Session Guitarist Series with updates to bring them in line with newer releases of the series. Progression builder was potentially what fascinated me the most. So I did the update through Access. However i was a bit disappointed with the upgrade to…

Regarding the installation of chamber strings
I installed chamber strings from Spitfire Audio and entered the serial code in Native Access. Normally, “Install” or ‘Locate’ should be displayed for that product, but “Add product” is displayed instead. Why is that? Also, when I click “Add product,” a folder selection screen appears, but if I want to move it to an…

Hard drive space optimizing and standalone apps
I want to ONLY have kontakt and all the plugins and stuff be ONLY in my DAW of choice, logic as AU. I've already cleared vst and other formats. Lastly, I deleted all the standalone apps because they take up a lot of space and I don't need them. But now when I goto native access it shows many things as needing repair and it…

Kontakt Slow to load even before I load an instrument/Sample Library
Hi Guys. So I updated Kontakt. It was working fine before, but now it takes over 2 minutes, just to Load an empty Kontakt instance, before even Loading an instrument or Sample Library. I am using FL Studio 2025, all up to date. I even tried it in Reaper and Studio one. It takes the same amount of time. It also takes the…

Why does the Kontakt team keep neglecting UX—starting with poor tagging capabilities?
Hello I wanted to touch base on the tagging feature handicap that has been mentioned in multiple threads over past few years without any comment from the Kontakt/KK product team, leaving us with tedious workarounds that do not work as we'd expect anyway: With thousands of presets being added each year by library developers…

Cannot import audio sample files into Circular.
I'm using Circular (1.0.2). I'm trying to import my own audio sample files, but dragging and dropping the files doesn't work. When I try to import, the Circular logo just spins endlessly. I'm using Kontakt 8.6. Has anyone else experienced this issue?

We Sound Human
I just bought two We Sound Human packs. Is anyone else using them? First problem was they don't operate inside the free version of Kontakt. So I upgraded to the Full version of Kontakt 8. That's a whole new learning curve! After a lot of to-ing and fro-ing (NI had to guide me through Go>Library>Application Support>delete…
