Careful What you wish for
I was pleased and fac#scinated to hear that NI were going to update all the Session Guitarist Series with updates to bring them in line with newer releases of the series. Progression builder was potentially what fascinated me the most. So I did the update through Access. However i was a bit disappointed with the upgrade to…

Regarding the installation of chamber strings
I installed chamber strings from Spitfire Audio and entered the serial code in Native Access. Normally, “Install” or ‘Locate’ should be displayed for that product, but “Add product” is displayed instead. Why is that? Also, when I click “Add product,” a folder selection screen appears, but if I want to move it to an…

Default Velocity Curve for Kontakt Instruments
Is there a way to save a velocity curve selection when using Kontakt instruments? Every time I open a new instrument I have to go into the settings page of that instrument and change the velocity curve to S88Mk3. If I save the snapshot it does not save this setting. Is there a way to do save it, or change the default to…

Upgrade to kontakt 8
I just paid $99 to upgrade to Kontakt 8 from Kontakt 7. I currently have komplete standard 14. I did not know if I had upgraded to Komplete 15 standard, it would have included Kontakt 8. The upgrade to Komplete standard 15 is $199. Since I already paid $99 for Kontakt 8, would I be able to pay $100 for Komplete standard…

Need a Previous Version of Strummed Acoustic 1 (V1.0/1.1)
I updated Strummed Acoustic 1 to v1.2 and now it won't work with Kontakt 8 or 7 because I can't update to v8.4 without updating my OS, something my studio isn't comfortable with due to concerns with compatibility issues with other plugins. I REALLY need a download for V1 but its not listed on the "Previous Versions" page…

Kontakt 7 Refuses to open after update but works outside of DAW
I just received an update via Native Access for Kontakt 7 (Kontakt 7.10.9 (2025-08-12)) but after installing it, Kontakt 7 no longer opens but requests that I contact the manufacturer. When I open it independently (oustide the daw) it opens up just fine. Please help.

Compatibility
Hello, I have a full license for Kontakt. I use Kontakt 7. Since the latest updates of certain VSTs, I have been unable to use some of them (Picked Nylon and Acoustic for example). Where can I find updates for these VSTs? I want to use an older version to maintain compatibility with Kontakt 7. I tried the Kontakt 8 player…

Question about 'Import Content' GUI/Kontakt 7 issues & features
Hi, I believe this hadn't been emphasized enough, but I've got some serious personal issues with how you decided to handle the Import Content section of Kontakt, and i'm shocked that this was not addressed (unless it was in Kontakt 8, but for now I see no point paying for such irrelevant upgrade compared to the state of…

Is the Retrigger/Legato function in the stock AHDSR bugged?
The AHDSR controlling the volume seems to not be working as described in the info tab. When Retrigger is disengaged it should "keep its current position until the last note has been released" However whenever you play more than one note in this mode, releasing ANY note, regardless of the order in which it was played, makes…

Looking for someone willing to sell me their Kontakt version 7 license
Hi, I run exclusively on Linux and unfortunately only version 7 of Kontakt works. Starting at version 8 it can no longer be used on Linux. I currently have the "Kontakt Player 7" working well in Ardour via yabridge + wine, and Native Access 1.14.1. So all I miss now to have Kontakt work is a serial number for version 7.…

How to make kontakt organize libraries properly ?
I one of the many disappointed user of kontakt, who had to actually pay 300$ in order to use non native instrument (spitfire audio vst) and who ends up spending more time setting up the player than actually doing music. Congrats NI ! After spending a lot of time figuring out why Kontakt couldn't load my nki file…
