How can I get rid of the +groups output in Kontakt 7 NI instruments like picked nylon guitar

There was an error rendering this rich post.

When I set up Logic Pro x with Kontakt 7 for 8 different instruments, I route them to the separate MIDI channels etc. All that works fine, until I hit an instrument that shows as output for example 4 +groups. It is possible to get rid of this in the group editor when the instrument has the spanner symbol, but the newer instruments like picked nylon guitar, picked acoustic guitar etc etc don't have the spanner and don't seem to have any facility to access the group editor to switch this off. Is there anything that I can do to switch the group off? It sort of makes these brilliant instruments tricky as I then have to have them as standalone instruments which will totally eat up CPU.

From my experience, I solved a very similar issue by doing this: just by clicking on the +groups and changing it to st. 1.

Let me know if it worked.

I've got this same problem witht he Congas instrument that come with Kontakt Factory Library in 7. It opens as a "+ GROUPS" MIDI channel. I go to set it as a specific channel in the MIDI channels menu and nothing—it continues to be triggered by every other MIDI track, regardless of channel. THere is no "wrench" button on this instrument so I cannot go in and manually turn off the + Groups function. This is maddening. What am I missing here? Obviously I do not want this instrument to be triggered by every other MIDI channel in my song.
