A huge choice of sound
Kontakt hosts the world’s largest range of virtual instruments. With thousands of libraries, it's the gateway to quality sound from Native Instruments, our official partners, and scores of indie developers. Plus, everything is completely tweakable, so you can make any sound your own.

What’s new in Kontakt 8?
Our most feature-packed release yet is here to transform the way you generate, modulate, and playback sound. Plus, it’s packed with performance updates so you can work faster than ever.

Smash writer’s block
Tools add a completely new layer of creative features to get the ideas flowing. And they work with any Kontakt instrument, old and new. For our first drop, we’re launching MIDI content and randomization features with Chords and Phrases, designed to spark new ideas and get you in the zone fast.

Fast and fun loop control
Leap is an ultra-fast and playful way to play and manipulate loops. Spark fresh ideas, sprinkle in expressive performance effects, or just jam. Breathe new life into your sample collection or try something totally fresh with our new Leap Expansions series, starting with 12 curated packs for specific genres and styles.



Get going with hundreds of included instruments
Kontakt’s Factory Library comes packed with over hundreds of meticulously sampled instruments. Get started with a huge playable and tweakable selection of acoustic and electronic options, including the renowned collection from Orchestral Tools, plus Hybrid Keys.

Dream it, build it
All your favorite Kontakt instruments are built right here. The powerful feature set makes Kontakt the first choice for instrument developers worldwide, and it just got even bigger with enhanced synth capabilities, including real-time wavetable, frequency modulation, and ring modulation oscillators.

I guess, gonna skip this one. Don't use Chord or Phrase Tools.

The chord and phrases tools are surprisingly cool. More so the phrases tool. Its like chopping up midi in a sampler. You can randomize until you find something cool, then chop it up, or export it to daw. Highly recommend checking it out, Ive found it very inspiring.

This has nothing to do with Kontakt 7.

No.
When you start using kontakt 8, you'll never use 7 again.

So Quickload only functions in Classic View?

If so, whats the Kontakt 8 Default View equivalent?

For all friends who have missing Tools and presets, you only need to install the official Native Access. After registering for free and logging into your account, close it. Reopen Kontakt 8, and you'll be pleasantly surprised.

The actual version of Native Access is 3.14 you mean we need to install the old version ?
Here a lot of libs are missing. Thanks
  Member 29.04.2019 2 34

No need to, just download the latest version of Native Access from the official website. The installation package shows Native Access 2, so in reality, it should be Native Access 2 v3.14? I don't quite understand how the version numbers are set, but it solved the problem.
  Member 29.04.2019 2 34

Just install the latest version of Native Access and log in.

That's weird, it doesn't work for me. Downloaded Native Acess and relog but I can only see libraries I own. Before I could see all my installed libraries in Native Access. In K8 many libs are not found.

If you really need Chords and phrases and everything else you should install Kontakt Player from Native Access, this will install everything Kontakt comes with including Piano Uno, then install Kontakt Full in either of the two releases.

Of course you must first clean, for this I leave you the commands, remember that this will remove absolutely everything, you will have to add the libraries again.

Clean Kontakt

Is this 8.0.1 version an update only?
I cannot install this. I get an error:

Failure
No previous installation found.
Please run the full product installer before running this update installer.


If this is an update only, why is the file size as big as the v8.0.0 (1.53gb)
No one wants to have 2 times 1.53gb files on their computer for 1 product.

Thanks. First time using Pacifist :)

Unfortunately, it didn't install the .components and .vst3 to their designated location. Now im wondering if anything else where misplaced (installed to a wrong location/folder)

you can just hit the install button within pacifist and it will handle the proper directions by itself :)

I ended up downloading the version from HCiSO -worked perfectly.
Thanks for your help & advice. But the workaround with Pacifist is a hassle for me.

This kontakt 8 is a bit of a cpu hog. Sticking with 7 on my oldish Intel MacBook pro
