Absynth 5, FM8 and Reaktor 5 are some of my favorite legacy NI products, which still appear in my latest Native Access portal as installed products, but DO NOT appear with available libraries in the Kontakt 7 stand-alone or the plug-in.
I'm on Win 10 but started a long time ago with Komplete 8, then 10. Now running 12. All else with Komplete 12 runs with no issue—I just want my legacy products back to hopefully run as plugins in the DAW.
How-to videos on "batch re-scan" and "adding 3rd party libraries" seemed to point in the right direction, but I couldn't get anywhere with that process since:
I cannot find the library file ("Absynth5.nki" or similar) anywhere on my computer.
Native Access' "Application Location" points to a place on my HD that is an EMPTY folder—yet Native Access claims Absynth 5 is installed?! I really don't understand how this works.
The situation is exactly the same for FM 8 and Reaktor 5… What puzzles me is that I didn't delete anything, yet these libraries are now gone from my HD.
Perhaps there is a way for legacy customers to petition NI for copies?
I'm sure someone else has faced this situation and come up with something… Anyway, thanks in advance for any solution, suggestions, or fundamental explanations that will help.
I get the feeling I'm missing something here.
