Putting older libraries in the Kontakt 7 browser

Gone To Lunch

I am trying to include some older libraries, eg Angelic Zither, in the new Kontakt7 browser.

The

site advises use the batch process if it fails, but when I do this, I just get an error msg 'Error encontered in batch process: Angelic.Zither. could not be saved!'

@Gone To Lunch Do you still need help on this? What kind of library is Angelic Zither? Is it a Kontakt Player library or are you accessing it through the files browser ? Then you should follow this article: How to Add Non-Player Libraries to KONTAKT 7's Browser

Did you try adding it Standalone instead of as a plugin? Looks like a file permissions error...

Thanks, but I don't understand your reply? There was nothing in the NI online help along these lines, and in any case, I would be seeking to use the instrument within my DAW as loaded in the Kontakt player, rather than using it stand alone?

It is a troubleshooting step to see if the issue is because you are trying to add it using the plugin...If you add the library to standalone it will be available in the plugin as well.

Ok, I understand. I opened it standalone, but once again got the same error msg

Make sure you set full disk access for Kontakt as outlined in this article...
