How to open Kontakt 6 instruments on Mac M2 Pro

Charles Av

Hello NI Community I have some instruments that can only be opened in Kontakt 6, I’m gone run it in mac 🖥️ m2pro also some advice in issues opening this version in this machine?

Any advice on issues opening this version in this machine, would be highly appreciated, since I am a Beginner in the NI Technologies. thank you so much.

Also is some one around here, interested in selling a License for this version ?

Kontakt 6 will open on Apple silicon both natively and in Rosetta 2 , but you have not supplied information about your OS version ? But going with Ventura from your profile page then I think that Kontakt 6 ought to work with Ventura !

I deleted the duplicate discussion and cleaned up this one to reflect the actual questions !

Please post in the N.I. Forum Buy / Sell / Trade if you should decide to go on with your plans to buy a Kontakt 6 license !

I thought Kontakt 7 was backwards compatible with older libraries? Which libraries do you have that require Kontakt 6 and won't work in Kontakt 7?

It is backwards compatible, but not on a super old Library like my Chris Hein Horns which I have at least 10 years ago and I could open it if I pay for an update (as far as I know) and in K5 and K6 the library used to open fine that is why I was thinking to buy a K6 License when I don't even know if K6 could be open in my mac mini m2pro.
