kontakt 8 is such a mess
the new side panel browser is a welcome edition but its pretty useless without tags lol. its like the old style browser from kontrol 2.9 but not quite. we have to use the library tab to browse by type which makes the side panel pretty redundant. what was the point? double clicking on a sample now loads in leap, this is so…

Why does it take 4 clicks to resize the Kontakt window
When is kontakt going to be updated from 1990 software to 2025. Why do we have to use the archaic interface that has been outdated for years? Just an example, to resize to default view, which wouldn't be a problem if kontakt would update the interface, you have to click file, options, resize and close. Just ridiculous. If…

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…

Remove older instances of Kontakt from Native Access
Hi, Does anyone know how to remove older instances of Kontakt (in my case, 6 and 7) from Native Access? I'm doing the auto migration option and have manually deleted all the relevant files from these apps. Yet they still appear in Native Access with the orange exclamation point alert and a prompt to "repair." This is…

Kontakt 8.1.0 extremely sluggish, unusable.
Mac Studio M2 Max 4TB / 64GB / 12CPU / 30 GPU / Sonoma 14.7.2. I launch Kontakt 8.1.0 standalone, and the interface responds to mouse clicks after a few seconds delay each time. E.g. I click on an instrument and wait 3 seconds for it to become highlighted. I double-click and wait a few seconds for anything to happen. With…

Chords Tool Connundrum
Just got the Kontakt 8, horray. Just trying to figure it out, and my first hairy eyeball comes with the Chord tool. I hit a D on the keyboard, and it plays, like an Asharp or something. I don't understand… Why doesn't a D play a D chord, and maybe some keyswitches a couple of octaves away have the various voicings, modes,…

Kontakt7 with VelvePro
I bought VELVE Pro yesterday, but unfortunately I'm having a lot of problems installing it. I keep getting error messages about the paths. I've tried everything possible, but it just doesn't work. I thought the installation would be as straightforward as with Session Guitarist or Symphony Strings. Now I have to get into…

$99 instrument voucher with crossgrade
I was planning to buy kontakt 8 crossgrade, but I noticed it is a bit cheaper if I buy on a plugin key site (legit one) due to conversion and such for me. Is the $99 voucher that comes with the crossgrade only if I buy on the NI site, or if I activate a key on the NI app, does that count as well?

Joystick Controller for XY Axis Movement
Can anybody please tell me if a single USB joystick controller would be able to operate the XY axis movements that various instrument programmes now feature? If this unit could "revolve" the XY axis in the programmes, is it simple to programme the unit to do so? Thanks for any help.

Keyboard browse issues after Kontakt 8 update
Hi everyone, Since I installed the new version of Kontakt, several of my plugins no longer work properly — including Glaze, Soul Magic, and Noire, for example. Native Access shows that everything is correctly installed, and I’ve already tried reinstalling these plugins, but unfortunately, the issue persists. This is…

Is there an update for Spotlight: Ireland coming to fix the bad sustain loops?
Hi folks, I guess this is more of a question for the NI spotlight product owner, but I'm really surprised at the poor quality of the sustain loops on the wind instruments in "fast" playing style. Unfortunately the "slow" playing style has bad intonation in the initial onset - every note seems to scoop upward by enough…

Static on horns
I recently purchased Session Horns Pro. I'm using Kontakt 8 Player on a Mac Book Pro with M3 chip and latest Sequoia OS. On the horns samples there is static along with the note. Some notes the static is minimal or not noticeable, but some are requiring me to put a notch filter on the EQ because the static is so bad. This…

kontakt player controls not showing up for automation
Hi wondering why the volume and pan controls are not showing up the DAW for automation? Seems like an oversight. These controls should be selectable in Ableton or Bitwig for automation or modulation.

Kontakt 8 player and preset selection going to default
HI for some reason many of my kontakt libraries when selecting a preset from the library browser panel on the left of kontakt and then later clicking the right or left preset arrows in the instrument panel causes the next preset to be the default preset rather than the next preset from the one I had selected initially. Why…
