Kontakt 6-7 issues.

Hi.
A while ago i got Kontakt 7 full instead of Kontakt 6.
However since then, all my 3rd party kontakt instruments in both Kontakt 7 and Komplete Kontrol have been full of errors.

I get error messages about missing content, even though the instrument is fine and opens in Kontakt 6 standalone.
And the graphics is totally missing, so I can't se the parameters, only the buttons.

Am I missing something here? Or do I have to scrap all recent Kontakt instruments, when I upgrade to a new Kontakt version?

My Komplete kontrol version is 3.3.3 and my computer is a Mac mini M1


Cheers
Matias.

    Hey Matias,

    Make sure to tick that box here:

    So does that mean that you ticked the box and didn't work? Have you tried that in Komplete Kontrol in standalone? Have you tried to open Kontakt 7 in standalone? IS everything working as expected there?

    Here's the experience.
    When i open the Instruments in KK standalone, I get no graphics and/or error message.
    If I open Kontakt 6 in KK standalone, and then drop the .nki file in the window, some of the instruments open perfectly (the ones with the graphic issues).
    The rest of the instruments gives an error message that the files are either incompatible or corrupt.

    It seems that some of the files are incompatible with Kontakt 7.

    I'm still confused, you mentioned errors in Kontakt 7, now you mention errors in Kontakt 7.

    Did you also update Kontakt libraries? Some of these updates broke compatibility with Kontakt 6.

    Can you share screenshots of the error messages?

    Hi Jeremy.

    I'm sorry if my posts are confusing. Komplete is a huge collection, and it's hard to keep the overview.

    On the left is an instrument loaded into kontakt 7, and on the right the same instrument in Kontakt 6.

    Framegrab two is a reaktor file (Harmodrone) opened inside Komplete kontrol in Pro tools. The GUI won't load before I go to another track, and then return.

    And last, an error message from Komplete kontrol, inside Pro Tools.

    Might be two different issues.
