How do I downgrade Products (minimu requirements change)

There was an error rendering this rich post.

Hi,

I've just ran my normal check for updates in Native Access. Now my Analogue Dreams and Ethereal Earth instrument dont work on Kontact 6.

I foolishly didnt read the update text (minimum requirements changed to Kontact 7.6) so the question is, how do I get it back to a version that runs on Kontakt 6.8 without spending money I dont have :D\

Cheers,

These libraries have been updated to Kontakt 7.6 to enable some features o our forthcoming keyboards.

Please note that all NI libraries only need the Kontakt Player to operate so you could run them in Kontakt 7 Player.

However, some users do not wish to use Kontakt 7, full or Player, so here are the installers for the 3 Play Series libraries:

Analog Dreams 2.0.3

I asked for a communication (in another thread on here) from NI on other libraries that are already causing people hassles now too (Electric Mint/ Electric Sunburst Deluxe)

I think it would be in everyone's best interest if NI made ALL original installers for ALL K6 libraries that will be affected by these changes available quickly so as to avoid a major outcry.

@Vocalpoint Working on it!

Sweet! Thanks.

+1 @Jeremy_NI The sounds need to be backwards compatible.

It would be a major bummer to open an old project and then have one of these libraries not open, telling you you need to re-load the sound in Kontakt 7 for it to work. I've seen 7 of the libraries pop up as updates and simply stating in the change notes, "The minimum version required is Kontakt 7.6". Luckily I check change notes before updating, but it could easily be missed and cause issues.
