Kontakt only intruments playing when NOT selected in my DAW
Hi all, I just installed Komplete Start yesterday along with Kontakt 8. Everything was working really well yesterday in a session until I saved, shut down, and went back to it later. What is happening now is, if I either have no tracks selected or if I have a non-kontakt track selected, the playback is totally fine but…
Kontakt crashes in Studio One occasionally with "kernelbase.dll" error
The issue seems restricted to Kontakt specifically. I have a huge project, but I've tested loading a blank project, and it happens too. It's so hard to figure out what triggers it, because many times its fine. When it breaks, it screws me up big time and delays me because I haven't been able to figure out how to fix it.…

Problem with volume settings using Kontakt with Studio One
Hi. I'm a newbee with Kontakt and I'm having a strange problem using Kontakt within Studio One. Whenever I load an instrument into a track in S1 the volume on the track automatically goes to -117.3 and then flips between 117.3 and 115.3 - continually.

Hi, I'm facing the problem that "Replika XT" just works until I toggle the switch from "Standard" to "ping-pong". Afterwards the output meter stays empty and the effect ist gone.

How to; Stem separation on tracks on hard drive ? TP4
HNY NI fam! Recently downloaded a bunch of tracks to an external hard drive and want to know if there's a way for me to separate stems directly from the hard drive folder in Traktor Pro 4.
