Sequoia 15 and NA/Komplete

MEGCLECTIC MUSIC

I know that Sequoia 15 hasn't been cleared yet to be compatible with NA/KK and I have an Apple Mac M2. However, if I purchase plugins without the compatibility being cleared, shouldn't they still play in Logic? I can't see the Komplete Start in my NA right now, even though the versions have been updated, so I figured it was the OS update and it was. However, that shouldn't stop new plugins from working should it?

What plugins do you want to purchase?

I have a whole list of Expansions I want to get and I want to purchase some of the Kontakt 8 ones. I was trying to get the Leap Drums that are free, but I think the incompatibility of the OS System is preventing me from purchasing it.

OK so as I thought basically you just need Kontakt 8 to work, and Maschine 3 for the expansions. So far I have experienced no problems with either of them on Sequoia, and Maschine 3 is actually officially compatible.

So if I want to purchase the plugins, I need to purchase Kontakt 8 correct? The OS upgrade won’t affect it?

Not necessarily, I think they should also work in Kontakt 8 Player. Thing is they are not plugins, Kontakt and Maschine are the plugins, the Expansions are content (eg presets, samples etc). So as long as the plugin works in Sequoia the content should too. If you try the free player version of Kontakt 8 with a free library you can test it out for yourself but it works for me (well I have the full Kontakt)

I think some Maschine expansions also contain content for other NI plugins like Massive - so it's a bit more complicated, but the Kontakt ones just need Kontakt (I'm not 100% certain Leap Expansions load in the player though so check that first)

Ok. Thanks.
