My misfortune is that I purchased the update from 4 to 7 from NI when it first came out, but due to a series of family crisis was not able to get back into the studio and install it. My PC's are not recent but I do have Windows 10 and Cubase 8.5 running well in 32 bit.
There has been much catching up to do and I really cannot abandon all my 32 bit projects that require 32 bit VST's. It was my hope that I could get to use Komplete 7 until I learned that Service Center is gone. After installing Native Access I was able to register the package and several of the programs are listed as able to download or locate on my system.
First, I downloaded Kontakt 7 and saw that no libraries were found. So I installed the libraries from my DVD's. They are not recognized by 7 but can be accessed in 4. Next I downloaded the Vienna Concert Grand, which is recognized it 7 but are seen as "demo" in 4.
I am not sure about the order here. I might have installed Kontakt 4 first but could not activate it. I could be that when I downloaded 7 that it automatically activated 4. I am pleased in any event that I can use the original orchestral samples, but am confused as to what is happening. Has anyone else had this issue or something similar?
Other apps and samples I have installed work only as demos, since they do not show up in Native Access.
Thanks in advance for any help offered.
