I've been plagued with crashes in Kontakt 7 (which usually takes out Cubase too) and have been unable to get any stability with it. I know others have used the various guidelines here and found success but I've never been that lucky. My question is whether Kontakt 8 has similar issues, or whether we're seeing pretty consistent stability throughout? I know it's early days, but I would jump to Kontakt 8 in a heartbeat if I had confidence that it was more stable than Kontakt 7.
