Kontakt 8 did not install its VST into Reaper.

Risbert

Hi, I have been trying for several hours to get Kontakt 8 to work with Reaper. I'm not sure why it wont install its VST into Reaper. I downloaded Kontakt 8 with the Native Access App and standalone Kontakt 8 player successfully installed. However the it did not install the VST version for Reaper. I have been told by multiple videos that Kontakt should automatically detect and install the VST with the standalone app. But after multiple reinstalls and messing with the settings this has not happened. Please can someone help me with this problem. If you need more info about my settings or pc specs please comment and ask. much appreciated.

No that's the 32 bit folder - it should be C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3

Which means it should download into the VST3 Folder right? I been checking that folder but nothing is in there. I think this is the correct file path C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\VST3.

Its not working for me , i have a PC and a laptop and kontakt never worked on Reaper, the only way for me is to use a pirated copy of it, I only supose it has to do with the piece of ****** auth software NI use.

So pirate guys won this one

It needs a special kind of stupidity to come to the official Native Instruments Forum and talk about pirated software… i rest my case… 😜

Congrats, you just won a nice ban…
