Load old Ethereal Earth Library
Hi there,
I just opened an old project but a few instruments are not supported anymore by the current version of Kontakt.
I downloaded the old version of the library (Ethereal Earth) and tried to open it in Kontakt, but it only says "DEMO" and doesn't make a sound, even less the sound I would like it to make.
Does anybody know what the issue could be?
I own the license and I can load the library perfectly in Kontakt 8. But there I don't have the preset I used on my old project.

What version of Kontakt were you using in these old projects? Was it Kontakt 6? If this is the case you probably updated some Kontakt libraries that broke compatibility with Kontakt 6. You can downgrade the libraries here:
You didn't mention what DAW you were using, some DAWs have an auto-migration system, like Logic or Cubase: Notes about Auto-Migration of Kontakt Versions in DAW Projects

Hi,
sorry for not responding before.
I managed to do it now but without really solving it. My old MacBook had the old version still on it, so I could open the project there and just export the stems of the regarding tracks.
I'm using Logic by the way.
The solution that was given with downloading the old version somehow did not work for me as I did not manage to pair the right version of Kontakt with the right version of Etheral Earth. So I just gave up and used the above mentioned option.
But thank you anyway for your help!
Cheers,
Dennis

You fail to mention version of old Kontakt used as well as you mention neither computer type nor exact OS version. Your profile says Mac but that is not specific enough.
If you are using Kontakt 5 on Apple Silicon then check this : GUITAR RIG 5, KONTAKT 5 and SUPER 8 R2 Open as Demo Versions on Apple Silicon / M-Systems
Else then be sure that you are using latest version of Native Access for your OS
Have you done all the Mac users must do when using N.I. software ? :
ALL NI apps including NTKDaemon must have full disk access. : Howto Enable Full Disk Access on mac OS and disks must be of correct format : Notes on Network Drives and Disk Formats
Also then please check that iCloud Private Relay has been turned off : Native Access Error Message: "Download failed" (macOS)
Also then do not use Clean My Mac.
And quote Kymeia : if using Sequoia then N.I. apps must be added to the Local Network
