Komplete/Kontakt 7

pnoman88

Thinking about buying Komplete 14. I have Kontakt 7. will the Komplete libraries run in Kontakt 7?

Monochrome

Well, all Kontakt libraries from Komplete 14 can be used in Kontakt 7. Even Kontakt 6 versions of libraries can be used in Kontakt 7. It just won't work the other way round (you will get a "Your version of Kontakt is too old to load this file" error otherwise).

Milos

Most of them, yes.

Abbey Road, Session libraries and similar instruments can be played on both Kontakt and Komplete

Thanks for your quick response! Is there any resource I can access to find out specifically which once will work with Kontakt 7?

Milos

Hmm, for that, idk.

But again, I've seen on youtube many Komplete instruments being used with Kontakt, like 10000 of them.

So yeah, pretty sure Komplete 14 will let you run most of the instruments on Kontakt, maybe even all of them.

That is all I know.

Have fun producing and composing!
