Position of Libraries in Kontakt 8 browser - where does Kontakt save the "position" in OSX?
I have several hundred different contact libraries (many third-party providers), which I carefully sort in the browser and put in a certain order. For example, I put all guitars, choirs, basses, drums in a row to access them quickly. My question: Where does Kontakt save the information of the position within the Kontakt…

Timecode setup for Traktor Pro 4 + Mac M2 + Kontrol Z2
Hi, I've recently bought a replacement mac for my Traktor 2 set up, and I had to buy Traktor 4. I am now trying to set it up, but I'm alarmed by the removal of the setup wizard, which previously detected my hardware and configured the application for timecode vinyl.

Guitar Rig 7: switching presets live with a midi foot controller
I recently bought Guitar Rig 7 and love the sounds. What I'm struggling with is how to switch its presets. In most guitar effect plugins there are 4-8 "slots" to hold presets that are then easily mapped to a midi foot controller. Why doesn't Guitar Rig have these? I have found a semi-complicated work around in Ableton…

Moving NI libraries to external HD
Hi, I've owned NI libraries for years but 2 weeks ago, after upgrading my old iMac to a new Mac Mini M4 (512GB RAM & 1TB Storage), purchased Komplete 15 Standard. I started downloading some of the libraries but I'm always confused why it is not possible to choose to load them to my 8TB external drive (APFS Volume). Somehow…

OSX: Virtually all libraries showing as requiring "Repair" and how i fixed it.
So, I opened Native Access and most of the libraries had a "repair" warning button next to them. I checked the "Installation paths" on a couple and noticed that they were missing a part of the path for whatever reason. I configured the Content Location to be at my external SSD way back, before installing the…

Missing Content from Included Software Bundle (MPK Mini)
recently purchased the AKAI MPK Mini , which includes a software bundle featuring Native Instruments complete 15 select. During the registration process, I selected the complete 15 Beats package.

MacMini or MacStudio
I’m about to upgrade and can’t decide between a Mac Mini or a Mac Studio. I usually run 70–80 tracks per song in Logic Pro, using both Logic’s built-in library and Native Instruments Komplete 15.

Traktor Pro 4 unusable because of frequent crashes
After numerous and repeated crashes of Traktor Pro 4 during a weekly gig I've downgraded to Traktor Pro 3, which is stable. Pro 4 is absolutely unusable in any real gig. Strangely, it works just fine at home, i.e., when not connected to the Kontrol S4 MK3. The crashes go as follows (my member is supported by info from the…

[Feature request] Make Settings panel great again
It would be great if, in some future version of Traktor, NI would invest some time and effort in redesigning the Settings panel. It's such a mess, cluttered screens all set in the same, low contrast, bold font. Things are very hard to find, especially while playing. Making the settings panel searchable would already make a…
