Hey all,
Please check this other thread for updated links:
Previous versions of recently updated Kontakt libraries / compatibility with K6 older libraries
(We had to create this new one for users to find the links directly, without going through all the comments)
There are a lot of recent updates for Kontakt libraries to port those to 7.6 and taking more advantage of the MK3 keyboard new possibilities. Some of you expressed the need for previous versions as you do not wish to use Kontakt 7 for various reasons. Here are the installers for those libraries. Let us know if you see one missing and we'll update the links.
IMPORTANT: Make sure to open Native Access after installation to complete the activation process.
If you wish to move the library to an external hard drive after installation and activation, please follow these steps: How to Move a Kontakt Library

Exactly. Just download and manually install the older K6 version. Only use NA to activate the licence. Don't use NA to install the library.
Thank you very much for your help!
I've tried but something gone wrong…
I didn't purchase it yet. I tried to be sure it could be installed…
I think it just means Session Guitarist isn't activated yet. Since you didn't buy it that should be expected. They should change the text of that error message to be more clear. I seem to remeber reading about that issue before. I could be wrong though. I'm pretty sure it will work when you activate a licence before installing the K6 version.
OK. Thank you very much!!
Look at page 3. There is someone with the same issue with Ashlight. It looks like he installed the latest version first and then installed the K6 compatible version to get it working. I would just buy the licence, activate it and download the K6 files. Then, in NA, point the library to that folder. I never tried it myself but it should work, theoretically.
How to get Picked Acoustic work with Kontakt 6.8?
I have the "Session Guitarist - Picked Acoustic 1.1.0 Setup PC.exe" (from the first post) but maybe the 1.0.0 version is available somewhere?
(I have projects with K6.8 and Picked Acoustic and one day it stopped to load. Now I can use Kontakt 7 Player and set all the parameters once more but I'd prefer not to think about it the second time and just load the library as it has been working before. I had the same problem with Noire, but it works with K6.8 after installing the file from the first post. Picked Acoustic doesn't work that way but it should.)
Hey, I'm in the same boat. The download link to the previous version contains the wrong file. We need version 1.0.0 for Picked Acoustic to work in K6. I've requested this in a new post:
Hoping NI will provide that file, I'm also currently working on a whole lot of projects with Picked Acoustic, all not working now. And I don't remember all the parameters, in order to set it up again in K7 Player.
Electric Mint"s minimum version is 6.7.1, so it won't run on Kontakt 6.6.1 on a Windows system.
Oh, sorry. I shouldn't try to help people without knowing all the details. It never occurred to me that someone doesn't run the latest K6 version. Sorry @m. r. m.
No worries, it would help if this information was more proeminent. @m. r. m. If you bought it already you can ask for a refund.
@spun Working on it, will provide the zipped library soon.
That's great to hear, thank you so much!
Not sure if this has been asked yet, but is there a plan to add the old version of the Retro Machines MK2 library to this list?
Just added it.
This is causing me so much stress. Even after downloading the older version of Analogue Dreams some of my tracks that have Kontakt 6 on them are simple empty. I have spent literal years on some of these songs and now they're irreparable. Legit feel like crying at this point.
