Unable to load third-party Kontakt libraries without serial numbers

January 29 in Kontakt

I am using kontakt7 on mac.
I purchased a instruments called aquamarine from Muze, but I can't figure out how to add it to kontakt library and use it.
It is a kontakt library with no serial number. The unzipped file contained ncw files.
https://www.muze.shop/en/index.php?route=product/product&path=72&product_id=58

I also referred to the following article, but could not load the sound source with my kontakt 7.
https://support.native-instruments.com/hc/ja/articles/115000685889-%E3%82%B5%E3%83%BC%E3%83%89%E3%83%91%E3%83%BC%E3%83%86%E3%82%A3 %E8%A3%BDKontakt%E3%83%A9%E3%82%A4%E3%83%96%E3%83%A9%E3%83%AA%E3%81%AE%E8%A8%AD%E5%AE%9A#h_01GATNHGSPKXNQ6FZ1G1AT6J5W

I also checked the non-players content base path from Loading in Options and stored the aquamarine folder in that location.

If anyone has a solution to this problem, I would appreciate any help.

I used deepl translation from Japanese to English.

Muze Aquamarine requires the full version of Kontakt (can not be used on the Player version)
Else you unzip the Muze Aquamarine, copy to preferred Content location , open Kontakt file browser and select the preset in the browser.
Otherwise then see how to add to library view by using support pages below (P.S. if adding to library view then do not expect the sound preview to work if no preview is supplied by library maker)(e.g. no sound preview for Muze Aquamarine - so I think that there is really no idea in adding to library view) :

Hi, Thanks so much for your message!
My Kontakt 7 is full virsion.
and I have checked both NI support pages and i can not work.
If I select the ncw file directly, I get this screen.
I can hear the sound, but it does not go to the aquamarine synthesizer screen.
(I see that you are a aquamarine user!
My aquamarine does not have an “instruments” folder, only “resources” and “samples”.
This was purchased today from muze.)

Perhaps then you have not installed all the content ?
First check your emails and Muze account for downloads
then try following the installation instructions as shown through the link at the page bottom of this page
Else perhaps then your Muze Aquamarine is not a 'complete version' ?
Otherwise then you need to contact Muze Support

Have you tried to use the "Import Content"?
Click the "wheel" icon at the bottom left of the screen

A window will open. Click the "Add" button and navigate to the folder of your library

That's all

P.S.
If you like the Muze offerings then perhaps you would like this Free Rigid Audio software/libraries for Kontakt full version also ?
