Do you need to install both Kontakt 6 ad Kontakt 7?

I've giving it another go after wiping my computer and reinstalling previous macOS. I am new to Native Instruments. Does Kontakt 7 run all Kontakt instruments, or do you need to have both Kontakt 6 and 7 to run everything that comes with the Komplete 14 Standard bundle?

Hello,

you just need kontakt 7 but if you have some projects already with kontakt 6 loaded not all daws support to change it automatically to kontakt 7, so just try with K7 and if a project shows missing kontakt install 6 or if you remember the instrument load it manually and re save the project.

@Uwe303 thank you! I have never used NI instruments in my DAW projects, so it sounds like I can skip downloading and installing Kontakt 6.

Correct - then you can skip it like you said
