Is this a kernel problem?

GaryV

Hello guys,

Only today I've started to encounter a problem with Kontakt 7.6. Once its launched it freezes then restarts my Mac Studio M2 Ultra.

Was wondering if anyone has encountered this? Kontakt 7 is a main go-to plugin that I desperately need to get working again.

Please help?

peace,

Gary

I own a lot of the Arturia plugins as well, FX, V Collection, Pigments and haven't had any issues with them on Macos 13 or 14. Arturia instruments have always been very stable in my opinion.

Try to drag the kontak to the midi player and integrate it.

I am not sure if it helps, but I hope it works!

I have a M2 Studio Ultra too and had this exact same issue with Kontakt when I was on Ventura. It was the main reason I decided to upgrade to Sonoma when it was released.

I'm on MacOS 14.1.2 now and with the latest versions of NI software I no longer have issues with Kontakt crashing.

Am not sure I quite understand dragging Kontake into Midi Player?

Thank you reffahcs but if I do upgrade my OS to Sonoma I’m afraid that my other plugins may no longer work. I also have Izotope and Arturia plugins. But thank you for your response
