List of Kontakt Libraries that require Kontakt 7?

There was an error rendering this rich post.

Hello,

I am on MacOS High Sierra, which means I can not install Kontakt 7. (My laptop is quite old now, so I am sticking with what works.)

When I browse libraries/instruments from NI I can't seem to find any mention of what version of Kontakt they require. Only if it runs in "Player" or "Full".

This information would be very helpful. And a comprehensive list would be awesome.

@Studio KRUT You should find the minimum version required on most NI Kontakt libraries, for example, this is for Playbox and states version 6.7

Thank you. It seems that by coincidence the ones I had looked at did not have this information. For example Spotlight Collections, that look like this:

And then I saw that yet some other libraries says "the latest version of the KONTAKT..."

I checked and could open MIDDLE EAST in Kontakt 5, so maybe the libraries that don't state version numbers are compatible that far back? I am pleased because I have been waiting for a Darbuka, included in the middle east percussion library.

Well, there are some inconsistencies. Kontakt versions are only indicated when there was a recent Kontakt update at the time of the library's release date. The Middle East library has been around for a while!
