Kontakt 8 = 52GB? Surely that's a typo...

…or they meant Kontakt plus whatever comes with it (Kontakt Factory?) is that big…but if so, it's not clear on this web page:

    Not a typo.

    More like a "here's how much space you will need if you install everything that comes with" Kontakt 8 - kinda thing.

    Kontakt 8 itself is 1.16 GB. The Factory library takes up another 40 or so - but there is no requirement to install that if you do not want to.

    Not exactly sure where NI get's 52GB from - I cannot account for that much space.

    Thanks; that was my guess, but that page was poorly done….don't say "52 GB" and not explain that's if you install the stuff that comes with it and here's what that stuff is. At the very least, correct it to say 1.16 GB.
