Import into Kontakt 8.1 Fails

DrewCrazy · 2024-12-16T15:36:26+00:00

There was an error rendering this rich post.

I included some images of the errors I get when I import folders that include .nki's The only one that shows up is ThunderSprings, while omega Drums and United Strings of Europe fail. I also have dragged & dropped the NKI's into the library section but they don't show when I do. Any thoughts on how to fix this? Thanks!

This is a known bug but the bug is the error message itself, which is spurious, the import process still works, just dismiss it.

Thanks for your reply. It doesn't recognize omega Drums and United Strings of Europe. Which both have .NKI files and are technically "imported."

Any thoughts on what to do next? Thanks!

I can see imported files on the right - do they not load? (Or is 'Thundersprings' something else - not sure what you're showing here?)

Not sure why some things are not importing and I don't have those libraries to test - the whole import system in my view is a bit of a kludge. But I do know that the incompatible file dialogue seems to pop up regardless of whether the library has actually imported or not, and certainly on my system (and with others who reported this) in every case the library was still imported and usable after dismissing the error message. Also sometimes I think you need a bit of trial and error to select the right folder to import.
