in Kontakt

Hi All,

I finally had Kontakt 8 working fine in my Windows 11 PC. But now it just stopped working. I have no idea why. Every instrumnet loads fine, the keyborad pops up and the playable notes are in blue. Keys press down, but not a sound.

There does seem to be several issues. The first is the only midi channell available is Omni. Every other is Not Available. See attached. I don't have an interface so I use the onboard WASAPI Shared Mode. I have tried changing it, that didn't work either.

Everything seems to updated and loaded. It will not sound in standalone or in my DAW, Mixcraft 10.

I have a Mac and everything works fine on there.

Any thoughts on how to fix this?

    i went through the same exact problem.

    solution is indeed simple but easy to miss.

    SOLUTION:

    go to the audio/midi options, click on the routing tab, and change

    headphone L to Speaker L

    and

    headphone R to Speaker R

    Click OK and you got sound. Enjoy!

    Please open a new question of your own and give a full description of the problem including exact OS version , exact version of used app , if the problem is happening both using Kontakt standalone or only in a DAW. Also include a screenshot of Kontakt standalone Audio and Midi settings.

    Also then do not post same message more places , doing so counts as spamming the forum , so your duplicate message in another thread were were deleted.
