Can I Import an older Kontakt Factory library into Kontakt 7

George Wood

Hi guys,

The seems like a silly question, I have the full version of Kontakt 7, Komplete Kontrol 14 Standard plus a bunch of individual libraries I’ve bought over the years.

I also have an old Kontakt 5 DVD with a previous version of the Kontakt factory library on it, it was given to me after a friend upgraded, I wondered Is there to add this library to my current version of Kontakt, I like some of the older Vienna library sounds which seem to be missing from the latest factory library.

Kind regards,

George

Well, as far as I know, it is most likely possible to load the first Factory Library into Kontakt 7.

I can play my instruments from Factory Selection from Kontakt 5/6 (which is just Factory Library Lite) with no issues whatsoever.

Let me know if it helped.

Hi Milos,

Thanks for the speedy reply; that’s what I hoped the answer would be.

I copied the files to the library folder, but there was no way in Kontakt or Native Access to add the new sounds.

I’m possibly missing something really obvious, I’d appreciate any suggestions?

Kind regards,

George

Native Access won't as they weren't installed through it but I'm not sure that really matters. You should be able to load them though in Kontakt 7 by adding them via either the files tab or adding the whole folder to Quickload and then browsing to the from there. You can also import older libraries into the new browser.
