Kontact 3 Libraries

Moseph

I see that Kontact 3 isn't supported by Windows 11, but is there anything I can do to use the libraries besides upgrading? I still have the DVDs.

I skipped K3 but if it's like K4, although it's extremely unlikely you'll be able to activate the factory library, the samples are unprotected wav files, and you could build your own instruments from them in any full version of Kontakt.

Realistically it's unlikely you'll be able to use them. Which libraries do you have?

You can update to K8 from K3 for £89 and you'll get a voucher towards another instrument, but check your instruments are supported still, or that updates are available.

I do not know if your library can be installed and activated but if it it can then Kontakt Player is free to use and works with licensed libraries if it can also open that old libraries (?)
