TEAM HCiSO | 04 December 2024 | 1.05 GB
KONTAKT 7 is everything from instant inspiration for music makers to the industry’s leading instrument-building tool. For the seventh generation of KONTAKT, we’re bringing its 20-year legacy into the future. Find sounds easily with a new resizable browser. Explore new musical ideas and find fresh inspiration with an overhauled Factory Library, newly added effects, and under-the-hood audio improvements.

KONTAKT is the Definitive Sampling Platform and Industry-Standard. KONTAKT powers the biggest selection of sampled instruments available. Included factory library puts 55+ GB of detailed, creative, and expressive instruments at your fingertips. Drag and drop your own samples into an instrument’s interface to use your own sounds. Build your own instruments with powerful sample-editing and instrument-building.

MORE THAN A SAMPLER
With KONTAKT 7, you can sound like a snare drum, a symphony orchestra, or anything in between, from a universe of sampled instruments. It’s a simple sampler when you want it to be, and a deep sonic scripting laboratory when you need something more. The next generation of the world’s favorite sampling platform gives you new instruments and new features under the hood – so you can layer, link, stretch, and shape your sounds any way you can imagine.

WHAT’S NEW?
Over two decades, KONTAKT has become a highly-developed engine for creating and playing sampled instruments. KONTAKT 7 offers more for players and builders alike:
• Introducing KONTAKT Play Series: Three new instruments for the KONTAKT library, offering pristine, contemporary sound in a creative and streamlined interface

Wavetable synthesis module: Build hybrid instruments for entirely new sounds.
• Modulate your sound with additional new effects taken from MOD PACK; Choral, Flair, and Phasis
• Drag and drop you own samples into instruments to use them with your own sounds and create one-of-a-kind results.
• Enhanced effects: Even more effects for your creations, for greater expression and realism.
• Creator Tools: New standalone application dedicated to improving the library creation and editing process.

THREE NEW INSTRUMENTS
KONTAKT 7 introduces the KONTAKT Play Series: New twists on sought-after sounds. Each places powerful, creative processing chains into a simple, intuitive interface. These hybrid instruments combine wavetable synthesis with creatively sampled content, allowing dynamic live blending and sound sculpting.

The instruments all feature eight carefully assigned macro controls, corresponding to the eight rotary encoders on our KOMPLETE KONTROL and MASCHINE hardware. These controls are mapped to numerous shared parameters behind the scenes, so you can change a sound dramatically with a single twist of a macro knob.

ANALOG DREAMS
A powerful instrument featuring legendary analog and digital synths of the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s.ETHEREAL EARTH
A rich hybrid instrument that takes live instrumentation from across the world and combines it with digital synthesis.HYBRID KEYS
A modern and creative twist on acoustic piano, classic electric piano, synth, and analog keys – ideal for all contemporary styles.

POWERING SAMPLED INSTRUMENTS
KONTAKT is a host for hundreds of highly realistic and detailed sampled instruments. And because it’s the most widely-used host platform, you’ve probably already heard KONTAKT – on chart-topping pop and club smashes, hit TV shows, and blockbuster movies.

As well as our own KONTAKT instruments, there are currently around 600 licensed instruments from other manufacturers that run in KONTAKT, plus thousands more so-called ‘indie’ instruments. This diverse ecosystem means that KONTAKT 7 is your access point to the industry’s biggest collection of playable sampled sound.

Yes library issues with 8 (native access is messing shit up whenever trying to install something legit > NI just says f* your privacy, we're going to scan your drives anyway, and you probably quickly clicked some disclaimer/agreement message that justifies their intrusive behaviour, to skip to the install part??? By the way, not solely prone to messing up prior NI installs! - in my perception

Kontakt 8.1.0 is working fine for me on Mac OS Sequoia 15.1.1 M1 with Logic 11.1

Thanks, but this is crashing Ableton and not showing in Logic for me. 7.10.6 works perfectly, so I'll stick with that for now. MacOS Sequoia M1

Yes, this version broke everything for me in Logic 11.1 and Studio One 7.
Removed some of my libraries from the rack,. And looks like it found a way to reach Native Instruments' servers (even though I'm using Lulu to block traffic) 'cause it started suggesting me to upgrade to Kontakt 8 right inside the plugin window.

I think I'll stick to my trusted MORiA releases for anything Kontakt related. HCiSO is hit and miss...

Works fine for me in Logic/Sequoia M1.

Exactly the opposite experiences, for me, generally (ie, not just Kontakt)

Opens without a problem in FL Studio and Ableton. However, it can't find my libraries. Tried a few things but ultimately had to roll back to 7.10.6.

Same for me. I'll wait for a MORiA release....

that's rich.

Obviously no one is beyond err, or perhaps mistakes made, usually quickly fixed/addressed or whatever.. but if you wanna go toe to toe with that lopsided matchup, I'm sure game to take the other side in @HoMeCracKeR and HCiSO vs your "trusted". and I think the more discerning would also pile the safe money on that bet long term...

But it's not about that, .. as obviously this site, and we, as long time community members of it, encourage all efforts, and do not throw insult at those that are trying to toss you gifts and tools you can use.

You're ABSOLUTELY RIGHT. I deeply apologize for my comment. It wasn't my intention to ditch the tremendous effort every team makes to bring us stuff.

I was just frustrated because I coincidentally had troubles with a couple HCiSO releases recently. But it happens with other teams as well. It is OUR job to test things out and give feedback to the community! It's the least we can do!

I feel pretty bad. I shouldn't have said that. I've been a member of this community for years, but it's been my HOME these last few months.

I'M GRATEFUL!!

Thanks for calling me out on this!

LONG LIVE "HEXWARS, R2R, SYNTHiC4TE, CASHMERE, HCiSO, GUSEPPE & ALL teams"😉

No worries soundjam! I know we all can get frustrated when things aren't working just right, and sometimes we react in a certain way, and very often 'tone' in text, vs the actual intent of what one wants to say on sites like this can be read wrong, and hey, you've got a lot of class to self reflect on your comment, and I sincerely respect that.

And you are so right, as obviously these releases come with no 'warranty' so to speak, and they can't be tested on all possible systems, and let alone that the OG dev's in NI and others often release problematic software in the first place....

and it is our job, or somewhat incumbent on us, as a community to test these things out, and report to the releasers/TEAMS's etc where we find problems, and do our effort to help them help us....

and also it's nice to turn around and help the next user here with what we have learned, and provide assistance where we can, and that's, at the end of the day, what @SAiNT and the moderation staff and everyone else here wants and envisions for this place, as we all may have different tastes in what we do, and who we are, but we all are on the same team.

And those out there that may have more experience with this, or have been around longer, with the constant deluge of new users on these shores, we should all try and do our part, be gracious to the site, to those that provide for us on it, other people, and certainly beyond adhering to the letter of rules, showing example in decorum and behavior so that others get how it's supposed to go around here. :)

So thanks again for your well written response, and I too apologize for any snark that may have come across in my own.

(and I'm sure somewhere out there, Team HCiSO and everyone else are pouring over code and reading crash reports if submitted, and following what's going on in terms of problems for people, and take pride in doing their best to provide a solution.. )

Best to you sir, and let's all hope this gets cleared up quickly, and obviously support the teams and individuals still working hard for us macOS people, as there aren't as many, and there are some good ones out there that have left us in the past due to frustration with different things and reactions (which I'm not gonna dive into in this context lol), but I think, from your words, you totally get it.

Have a great day.

I've been out of the K'racked Kontakt game for a while. Is it possible to run a legit Kontakt with a K'racked version on the same computer?
