3rd Party Installation Kontakt 7 - sample files greyed out

mkelly1031

I'm trying to install a 3rd party library into Kontakt 7; I followed all instructions lined out in various tutorial videos, but when I go to add the files, they are greyed out...does anyone know how to fix this?

You are saying that you can't open the libraries inside Kontakt, right?

I can't install it in Kontakt 7, which according to this 3rd party's website, is required for the plugin.

Milos

Maybe the libraries require the full version of Kontakt?

Do you have the full version?

yes, I purchased it last night. I haven't found anything really online that addresses this issue. Someone had a similar problem, but they were "inside of a DAW", and that was the issue. I don't believe that's the problem here, so I'm doing nothing with my DAW, Logic, when trying to get this going.

Hmm...wait a second...

You said you can't install the libraries inside Kontakt, but yet you have the libraries inside your computer.

Yeah, the issue is that you can't open the libraries.

Well, there is an alternative that might help you.

But for that, you need the OG Rack View, then go to the Files, not File, specifically go to the Files button, which is beside Libraries button, then you can search around the files inside your computer and open the library you are looking for.

Let me know if it helped or if you need more explanation.
