Can hardly hear the plugin
I bought the NOIRE plugin today, and installed the Kontakt 8. When I open Kontakt on a track in Logic Pro X, it sounds good and loud when I press the keys in Kontakt. But when I play through the track (for instance change the instrument to Kontakt on a already recorded thrack) or play my midi keyboard the sound is very low…

Kontakt 8.10.0 Crashing Studio Pro 8
M2 Pro Chip Upon updating Kontakt to the latest version, now Studio Pro 8 (latest version) crashes upon loading Kontakt 8. However, Kontakt 8 works fine as a stand alone. I deleted the database folder for Kontakt, and re installed it, nothing works. Is there a way to revert to the previous version?

Kontakt 6 paid - want it back
Hello, I had to reinstall my computer due to a system crash. Unfortunately, I'm now very dissatisfied with the Native Access installer because I can only install the Kontakt 8 Player. A few years ago, I purchased the Complete 13 Select bundle, which also included a full version of Kontakt 6. I find it quite annoying that…

AV problem with Kontakt 8 update
Hi there, When I recently tried to update Kontakt 8, I received a message from "Virus & Threat Protection Settings" that a file had been blocked. I then have to go to "Virus & Threat Protection Settings" > "Exclusions" and add the file type as an exclusion. Unfortunately, I often don't know where to look for the file to…

A49 rotary knobs don't work in Kontakt player
If I open an instrument in Komplete Kontrol, all the knobs and buttons work fine on my A49, scrolling up and down the menus, with the joystick wheel, and controlling all the faders etc. loveley… But when I open the exact same instrument in Kontakt, either standalone, or as a plugin, none of these knobs do anything. The…

Drumlab kills Cubase's sound engine over time
Open new empty project → add drumlab → wait a day or two. This kills cubase's sound engine. Additionally, this spikes the cpu usage and you can't unload the project - you have to kill the cubase process.

Corrupted Kontakt 8 Leap UI
Seeing this quite often, when opening any new Leap Kit after having been working in Maschine for a while. Re-starting Mascine resolves the issue, but it's clearly an issue (attached image).

how to half the speed in kontakt?
Hi. I have some phrase based libraries such as Funk Soul Horns by BigFishAudio. Im working on a track thats 190BPM and at one point it drops down to what feels like 95BPM. I need to halve the tempo that kontakt is syncing to. The speed dial is set to 'zone' and greyed out. No matter what i do it seems like i dont have…

Just get used to the alphabetical nature of the browser. Following all the standard ways of importing these libraries and images btw. Thanks in…

Is there a way to record midi from the new Patterns tool in Kontakt 8.2?
Is there a way to record midi from the new Patterns tool in Kontakt 8.2? With the Chords and Phrases tools there is this star shaped drag to DAW button. Can't find anything like that in the Patterns tool. Or is there any other way. I use Logic Pro and recording with internal MIDI in does not work for any of the Kontakt…

Is it just me, or does Kontakt 8 suck?
I am liking the Kontakt 8 interface even less than the previous! I have to switch between default and "classic" views constantly! I switch because many patches for instruments (like from Spitfire Audio) just don't show up, and are noteven searchable!!! But I can find them searching the file system in "classic" view.…

Vintage Organs - Aftertouch Swell Seems Backwards to me
When applying aftertouch, it creates a negative swell (decreasing volume). This is counter-intuitive to me. I understand Hammond organs likely had no aftertouch, but other synths I have used, normally aftertouch mapped to volume or CC 11, or a filter, normally increases volume and/or brightens timbre. I have gone into…

Reseting Kontakts CC's
For a long time I was having trouble with my MIDI controller and Kontakt and had to set my CC's to 00 modulation 01 vibrato 06 expression. Then I couldn't use the mod wheel on my S88 and after I got that fixed (actually I don't know how that got fixed) I want to reset all my CC's back to the typical 01 modulation 11…

Is there a different way to load samples in Circular? Seems impossible in Mac + Ableton
I'm trying to load samples in Circular which I am using as an Ableton plugin. The way to load samples as stated in the manual is to drag and drop them to a certain area in Circular. The problem is that this is impossible when running as an Ableton plugin. As soon as I bring the Finder window up front, the plugin…

Updating Kontakt from 8.1 to 8.9 destroys all instances of VST3 in Ableton
If I have a project saved in which I used Kontakt version 8.1, and I update kontakt to 8.9, reopening ableton sessions will result in the previously saved instances not being found. In other words, it will give the "VST3 cannot be opened" error. When Kontakt was updated to 8.9, it must be showing Ableton a different plugin…

Dopamine release - graphic design quality at NI still lacking
Come on NI, where is the graphic design quality control? This looks very third party lower quality and not AAA sample library instrument from Native instruments. Has an educated professional graphic designer made a passthrough on this instrument or did the third party developer do it themselves? I've seen many of the…
