Kontakt Libraries' Compatibility
Hi, i'm new on NI community. I would like to know if the old libraries of Kontakt can work on the newest version of Kontakt. For example: every those libraries that require kontakt 5.6.0 can they work on Kontakt 8 and in the future K 9, 10, etc? Or is there a limit? The same question is for the Macos: if i use an old…
Kontakt 8 freezes computer and makes it reboot itself
Hello. I'm having this issue when opening Kontakt 8 either in standalone or as a plug-in in Logic Pro, it freezes the computer and then reboots itself. It also happens with other plugins like Massive and Komplete Kontrol. Any help would be very appreciated. Can't work on any music with this problem :(
Logic Forgetting Third Party Plug-In State When Reopening Old Project Files
When I open up an old logic project the tracks populated with Komplete Kontrol or Kontakt load the correct plugin but the instrument itself within that plugin is not selected anymore. Also, any modifications I've made to that sound is lost. Has anyone else dealt with this vexing predicament? It's very problematic because…
Please allow us to remove K8 Custom libraries.
I have been waiting months and months. PLEASE FIX THIS!!! There are addresses I introduced through this window months ago, I don't want them here anymore and there is no freaking way to remove them! Deleting the database does NOT fix it. Please stop suggesting that. These values must be hidden somewhere in the Registry or…

Kontakt/Komplete Kontrol - Black Box inside Logic Pro 11
Exactly as the title states, a Black Box appears when trying to load instruments into either Komplete Kontrol or Kontakt (7 and 8 player). The box is the same size as the loading popup screen and it appears once the instrument finishes loading. It's as though the loading screen just turns into this Black Box and once it…
Can't Solve Native Access "Download Failed" Issue. Upgraded to Komplete 15 and Kontakt 8
-Issue- I keep on getting the "Download Failed" in Native Access when trying to download Kontakt 8, Komplete 15 and the vsts. Note- it should be noted that my laptop got wiped about a month ago, which must have affected Native Access as it was stored locally on my laptop. Prior to it getting wiped and still to this day, I…

Import Content Option in Kontakt 8 Gives "Incompatible Files" Error on Almost All Libraries
Almost every library I own that worked perfectly as a tile in the library browser in Kontakt 7 can not be imported into Kontakt 8 without giving me a "Incompatble Files" error on hundreds of files ending in .ncw This is happening to multiple libraries from Zero G, Sonuscore, etc… Batch resave doesn't resolve this either.
Why does Kontakt reset dynamics value whenever I close and reopen session in Logic Pro?
I bought Kontakt 8 yesterday and I ran into this problem. Whatever I set to be the dynamics value on an instrument, it will be back to minimum value when I restart the session. At first I thought this was a problem with a freebie orchestra instrument I was using, or something written to a midi event, but I tested and it…

Important update about Electric Keys – Ivory

While the name has changed, the instrument itself remains 100% identical in every way. If you already own the instrument, here’s everything you need to know to ensure a smooth transition: Your updated…
Modulating Sidepane Navigator Volume/Pan
The latest update for Kontakt player 8.4 lets us draw in automation for the Sidepane Navigator Volume/Pan. However we cannot record movement in or assign it as a modulation destination in Bitwig (I imagine Ableton live too). Any ideas?
My keyboard (Waldorf Iridium) supports poly aftertouch, Fables only working in Mono mode
I am trying to get poly aftertouch to work in the Fables instrument within Kontakt 8 (inside of Ableton 12). This works in other plugins (e.g. Pigments) with MPE mode enabled, but no matter what I try Fables/Kontakt is only responding to when the aftertouch mode is set to Mono. Any suggestions?

My Kontakt 8 insert suddenly flips to the Free Player version
I am running the latest Pro Tools, and I created an instrument track. I then created a Kontakt 8 insert and from there loaded Arpology X. I then recorded some music and everything was fine, until suddenly, unprovoked, meaning I wasn't doing anything, the insert fliped from Kontakt 8 to the free version, which of course…

Komplete M32 and Logic Audio 11.2 update
Good morning, Can you help me? I bought Komplete M32 and Maschine MK3. Before the Logic Audio 11.2 update (added longer volume sliders), everything worked perfectly. But since this Logic Audio 11.2 update, Volume potentiometers only on Komplete M32 increase or decrease very slightly. The race is too small. (I didn't see a…
A61 Mod Wheel Skips
I just picked up a brand new Komplete Kontrol A61 last week, and so far it’s been a great addition to my setup. However, there’s one issue that’s been throwing things off a bit—whenever I move the mod wheel, there’s a noticeable jump or skip right at the start of its movement. It doesn’t respond smoothly or gradually like…
The Preset area doesn't display on small vst windows
Hi Guys, I made a small ensemble with just a few knobs. When I load it in a daw, the window is undersized and the presets don't show on top. I have to open edit mode to see a bigger window that shows the presets. Is there a way to fix this?

Any Success connecting Sibelius and Kontakt"?
I know how it SHOULD work but it DOESN'T work! Are the instruments in a Multi automatically assigned MIDI channels 1-n? That seems to be how it works in the best video I've found on the subject. But I get sound (and the wrong sound) from only Ch1, and silence from the others.
