when running multiple tracks of the violin along with a few audio tracks I get constant system overloads in logo pro. I can’t seem to get around the crashing. I have tried so many setting changes along with reformatting the entire system and reinstalling everything. Still crashes. I replaced all the instruments with a…

Has this happened to others? After a while, my Komplete Kontrol freezes on one plug-in instance. Everything works fine for a while, then the interface on the KK is stuck on one library, even if I change it. The keyboard still works, but all the KK functions, like the knobs, do not work. Any suggestions? Native Access and…

Hello, yesterday (03.05.2026) — in Native Access — i update two Plugins. I guess one of them was Kontakt 8. … Today i can't start Maschine MK3 nor Native Access. Maschine: „Waiting fpr product scan …“ (MacOS says it doesn't react) N.A.: „Loading Products“ (MacOS thinks its fine but … i waited for 30 Minutes now, so it…

Please update Maschine FX to version 3.

I just got an MX2 after using only an old Z1 and I'm totally stuck on how to remap. I've watched a bunch of videos on remapping other NI hardware, but I'm not understanding something with the MX2. This is where I'm running into trouble: In the Controller Manager, I can't find any of the default MX2 mappings, so I can't…

I keep getting this pop-up in logic when recording midi: "The Audio Unit plug-in "Kontakt" by "Native Instruments" reported a problem which might cause the system to become unstable. Please quit and restart logic Pro. Have already talked to apple support, deleted logic preferences, and restarted. Nothing seems to fix this.…

Why are we not seeing this content for Native Instruments own product? Even before the Maschine+ got updated with the ability to run Play Series, Akai got access first with the MPC Editions. Later, Maschine+ users got a brief trickle of content, but now they're back to releasing it for MPC first. 😲 Another negative aspect…

Maschine is responding to MIDI signals that actually shouldn’t be there. I have two A&H K2 controllers, one set to MIDI channel 15 and the other to channel 16. One K2 controls Maschine, the other controls Traktor. Until about three months ago, this setup worked perfectly. But recently, Maschine has started responding to…

I've seen many new libs lately where the little wrench icon is not available. I had my eye on a few of the Play Instruments but unless they're editable… It begs the Q: why own the full version of Kontakt if you can't have full control over the same libs/instruments?

This topic is for NKS and discussion for Noise Engineering instruments and fx. These are all 1:1 ports of NE's boutique Eurorack modules and a lot of fun to programme I created controller templates for all their synths and creative effects, but there were too many patches for me to convert to NKS but I did convert all my…

Hi, I just tried to buy the Komplete 15 Standard update from the Native Instruments website for €199 (I'm eligible). I added it to my cart, confirmed the boxes by checking the boxes, accepted, and clicked continue (but the following error appeared): --→Oops! Something went wrong! There was an error processing your request.…

This isn’t a question or a call for discussion, but simply a heads-up about what can happen if you accidentally use a different USB-C cable instead of the one that came with the MX2. That’s exactly what happened to me during my 11th performance with the MX2. Everything ran smoothly for the first three hours. Then suddenly…

Hi I recently purchased a Native Instruments Kontrol S88 MK3 from you. Unfortunately, the device is not functioning correctly. A firmware update cannot be completed because the device fails to enter firmware update mode. The official updater consistently shows the error message: “failed to boot into firmware update mode.”…

I bought the NOIRE plugin today, and installed the Kontakt 8. When I open Kontakt on a track in Logic Pro X, it sounds good and loud when I press the keys in Kontakt. But when I play through the track (for instance change the instrument to Kontakt on a already recorded thrack) or play my midi keyboard the sound is very low…

As the title says I'm having major issues with Ableton + Kontakt 7 or 8 (I tried both) Buffer size: 128 Sample Rate: 48000 Even when using one Kontakt instance I get crackling and popping along with 100+ CPU. Example setup below: Kontakt: Spitfire Symphony Orchestra (testing with Violins and Violas) Using midi channels to…
