Congrats NI team! 🙂

Sorry for posting this here, but I hope there will be a button to clear filters. I don't see it here. Please consider adding it. I requested the same for the new Massive X browser and the Kontakt 7 design looks identical (and nice, of course).

can’t wait.

is there the ability to import non player libraries?

is there a full release notes somewhere?

So now there will be 3 products with this style of browser: Massive X, Native Access 2, and Kontakt 7...

I wonder what that means, are we heading towards every major instrument having its own fancy browser or should we expect a browser like this in KK?

Howl

perhaps a strange question, but the accent lies on the hi DPI for the browser.....

only the browser??

If K6 users stay on earlier versions of Komplete do they still get K7?

Personally I'm quite glad to see a more coherent design style appearing.

Right... back to Tumbleweed Central ..........🤣

Since it's part of Komplete 14, you'd either have to buy Komplete 14 or buy Kontakt 7 when it hits the store in October.

Or buy Kontakt Upgrade...

This new browser design will be VERY welcome in KK.

At last the interface had to be improved, I hope that the size is not fixed, the old square instruments and that it covers the entire 16:9 screen, I will wait for an offer.

I really hope they make the main page resizable. In 2022 it is looking very outdated; I really struggle to see the tiny interface. I would have thought this is the most requested feature.

If they miss resizing the main screen out of version 7 then really it should be called 6.8.

I think they should have run a dual program; Version 6 to remain compatible and Version 7 for those third-party companies who wish to upgrade their libraries with new UI scaling. They have to make to switch at some point to a modern scaled UI. The sooner the better.

In the pre-release text it says HiDPI Factory Library - does this mean a larger UI for the NI module's and option for third party developers to do the same?

I live in hope!

I think they will do it similar like in Guitar Rig 6. Only several scales to choose.
