Well, coming from Komplete 8 to 14 is a bit of a leap for me. Nice interface, happy the preview stuff is finally a thing. Nearly double the factory selection, and a lot of new stuff I'm interested in for Kontakt came with Komplete 14. The Creator Tools app looks useful, and I hope it evolve to automate the sampling of an instrument.
I think it was a terrible time to mess with Native Access though, as it's been a constant pain. I'm on my fourth restart to finish downloading the Kontakt libraries. It'll probably collapse again, and I may see the last library installed by midnight.
It's going to take months to really use everything just in Kontakt :)

Bought komplete 14 standard but kontakt 7 has yet to show up in Native Access for me.
Do I need to be using Native Access 2 to be able to get it?
Thx

Their FAQs say to wait up to 2 hours (sometimes more). I had to wait nearly 4 hours. I also had to downgrade Native Access 2 to successfully install things, so I wouldn't recommend updating.

Thanks for the tip.
What about Ozone 10? Were you able to get that? And if so, how?
1 -
Ozone 10 did successfully install with Native Access 2. After downgrading to Native Access 1, Ozone shows up as a failed installation, even though it's successfully installed.

Ozone 10 is too tiny for my eyes, so I won't be using it.
2 -
It’s resizable
3 -
Resizing empty space doesn't help me much.
6 -
hahahahahah! sorry but ”resizing empty space” is funny on several levels!

When SW resizes like that your only option is to change your OS scaling options.

Maybe something minor, but I'm seeing the Kontakt 7 Player in my Native Access library.
However:
- I don't own Komplete 14.
- Kontakt 7 is still being a week away until it's hitting the store separately and there's no store page for the dedicated Player available yet.
- (I've also never downloaded the Kontakt 6 Player before.)
In other words: I shouldn't have it (yet).
What happened there?

Just installed Kontakt Player 7 and i have a big issue...
I have WIN10 with my FullHD monitor 125% zoom scaled.
I always using Kontakt inside Komplete Kontrol, and with Kontakt 6 -> KK - DAW (REAPER), my Kontakt interface is OK, besides my Windows is 125%, Kontakt 6 shows up at 100% size and looks good definition.
When I put Kontakt 7 Player inside Komplete Kontrol, it is been auto rescaled to 125% and looks awful, tremendous BIG. Some libraries even don't fit.
The only way i managed to fix it right now is using Windows 100% scale, but with that, all the other stuff in my PC looks ridiculous small.
Going back to Kontakt 6 right now until an option to set zoom size for Kontakt :(

We strongly recommend to use Native Access 2 to download K14 products.
1 -
Unless this has changed between 9 and 10 it shouldn’t be just scaling empty space - the whole gui is scalable
1 -
It only resizes the window for me too. Text and images remain the same size.
