"Hybrid Keys" library won't launch

There was an error rendering this rich post.

Hello,

Although I already downloaded & installed "Hybrid Keys" I'm unable to launch it.

I get a dialog says "Your version of Kontakt is too old to load this file please update to the latest version."

Although my Kontakt updated to the latest version. In the "Native Access" there isn't any new Kontakt version listed in the "Available Updates" section.

In fact previously I was able to load it in both Kontakt 6 & 7 with no problems.

Specifications:

Bitwig Studio 5.1.7
Kontakt 6.8.0. & Kontakt 7.6.1
Hybrid Keys library 2.1.0
Windows 10 pro

Hello,

latest kontakt is 7.10.5 so you should update, and you are using na1 as far as i can see, please install na2 from here:

Native Access 2 (native-instruments.com)

or you load an older version here but i wouldn´t do that in your case:

Previous versions of recently updated Kontakt libraries / compatibility with K6 older libraries — Community (native-instruments.com)

Ok I downloaded NI 2 & installed Latest Kontakt 7 version. Now I'm able to load Hybrid Keys.

Kontakt 6 VS. Kontakt 7 loading time :

The problem is Kontakt 7 takes too much time to load in comparison to Kontakt 6.

more than 30 seconds. if I saved multiple Kontakt 7 instants in a project this might take very long time to load them all.

So what is the solution in here?

Maybe this helps:

I also noticed if you open kontakt the first time it may need a bit longer and after that it loads faster until you reboot your PC, as far as i found out in a short test - but my test was not good enough to say that for sure and for all computers too.

I think I noticed this change around the same time as they were working out the problems in Native Access 3.12 so I suspect it had something to do with the verification process. The above noted approach @Uwe303 posted about does help this initial loading a bit, but I'd rather put up with that first and only delay than the plethora of problems there were in the older Native Access releases. I verified this somewhat by loading Native Access and leaving it running while I opened Kontakt 7 and it loaded almost instantaneously.

I can say in brief Kontakt 7 needs to be improved in terms of loading speed this might be a popular issue now. I'm sure they are working on it.

I'll be using Kontakt 6 & hoping for an improvement soon.

Regarding Native Access 2 it also takes long time when loading the products. this happens after I logged in then logged out. should I must be logged in all the time even when the app is closed?

I prefer to stay logged out while the app is closed this is essential for security reasons.

Anyways thank you guys for your kind support & info.
