Noobest question. Do we have to uninstal first your 7 version? libraries will be lost or they will be automatically added to the new version? Thaanks:-)

Probably the version is different. In kontakt the libraries are not "installed". They are recognized by Kontakt in your folders. You don't lose any.

I'd install the program into a different folder and keep version 7 until you have tested everything in 8. This goes for any version. Sometimes libraries become too old and you need the older versions to keep them working. Part of the huge benefit of this site - an archive of musical software.
You can work from the same folders for the instruments so you wont need multiple copies of them.

4 years and you still dont know the rules?

I mean, if specifically addressing bobdule who used to create Mac versions in the past, I guess you could argue it's a legit question.

But...it's still a comment request. There's already a Kontakt 8 request.

There's already a Kontakt 8 request.

Really happy that you're doing it!!

With bobdule you can creat file for custom lib, like minified or others, take more kontakt lib than r2r, get more option when you click add library in the kontakt setting. After it s a choice but for kontakt and maschine i always use bobdule they are great

Lot of libraries came with warning marks, library not found, Worked perfectly in V7 anyone else?

Works well here out of the box. The only issue I'm having is that only one of the kontakt full (with no nicnt) libraries I have can be added using the custom libraries feature (the icon at the bottom left). Others get an "incompatible files" error, though they still get added and load fine...

Same here. Not sure if this is a NI issue or this release. I tried R2R and Bobdule on two windows systems with the same libraries. Similar issues.

Try deleting the C:\Users\Public\Documents\Native Instruments\installed_products folder, running Kontakt Button again, and restarting Kontakt

how do you ad library i got no sound
  Member 16.01.2014 372

Sounds like a driver issue, select Audio from the top left drop down menu, and choose your ASIO driver if available, or next driver in line.

Thank for answer

Thanks Bob, and to all involved. Unfortunately my libraries are shown as Demo in red. I had the same issue with the R2R release also Has anyone any ideas please?

BTW: I'm on Win 11 Pro, and I ran standalone and VST3 both are listing the libraries as needing to be activated. I'd no library activation issues on the latest v7, from bob.

It is like KONTAKT 8 looking for missing libraries from a path that doesn't exist anymore. It was from a previous dead SSD from which were originally added to kontakt 7 and it doesn't look for the new folder. Readding library missing with Kontaakt button doesn't work. They still appear and work in Kontakt 7

Thanks Bob!

Can anyone explain what's the difference between this release and the R2R release?
Just a casual user, don't mind me

i too would like to know this - that being said, i've been using bobdule for NI releases for a while now just because they seem to work out better for the library onloading more than the R2R releases - so if you have to pick one to download id bet more on bobdule (that being said - all love to R2R!)
