I'm having the same problem described in this other thread. That thread was marked as resolved, but no solution was described.
I'm using Pro Tools in my case. When I load up my various templates, all my Kontakt instruments will load up, but not the samples. When I play notes, it will load up the sample for each note I play, and that's it.
I've never had this issue before, so I don't understand why it's suddenly happening. I've tested this loading up my template with Kontakt 7 (fully updated) and then Kontakt 8, and the issue is the same.
Anyone know how to fix this? Thanks!
