Compatibiliy on Catalina

Marzio2002

Hi, I would like to buy Native Instruments Komplete 14 but on the Native Instruments website among the product specifications it says that it is only compatible with Mac 11, 12 and 13. On other websites it says that it is compatible from 10.15 (Catalina) . I have Catalina (version 10.15) and so native access 2 doesn't work on my operating system and I'm forced to use Native access 3.5.3, but through Native access 3.5.3 is it possible to download and to use the contents of Komplete 14 on my 10.15 mac?

@Marzio2002 Komplete 14 requires Mac OS 11 as a minimum.

We have a compatibilty article for all products on Catalina here: Compatibility of Native Instruments Products on macOS

You'll find the installers for the compatible versions too.

Please note that some Kontakt libraries in Komplete 14, or their latest updates will require the latest versions of Kontakt 7, that are not compatible with 10.15. That could be tricky. We do have a list of some Kontakt libraries previous updates (compatible with Kontakt 6 and Kontakt 7.3.2): Previous versions of recently updated Kontakt libraries / compatibility with K6 older libraries

And finally, here are the legacy versions of Native Access: Native Access Legacy Installers for Older Operating Systems

So, it will be possible to make most of the products work but it will require some workarounds and the more we move in time, the harder it will get as more and more products will be updated and break compatibility with 10.15. So, it's at your own risk.
