VST3 Works now after Fixed Patch Windows 10 HE Studio One 5.5 .
Thanks Bob!

It works as standalone but Cubase 12 does not detect it. I´m on W10.
Why could it be? kontakt 7.vst3 is in the corresponding VST3 folder with all my other plugins.
Currently I have 6.7 portable and never had an issue with other versions.

If there is more than one Kontakt Cubase ignoring or adding to blacklist others. Uninstall Kontakt, delete all Kontakt DLL and VST3 files from plugin directories, install this release.

still not working in Cubase 12, it doesn´t see the plugin, and it´s not blacklsited.

If "Kontakt 7.vst3" exist in "c:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3" folder you can try to use with VST wrapper plugins like DDMF Metaplugin or Blue Cat's Patchwork.

GUI still looks too small on a 4k, such a lame effort from NI.

The wallpapers look low resolution as well

Curiously it works fine for me and I don't have SSE4 CPU architecture. I have SSE3 .
My PC is from 2010 "Phenom 4 am3".
I see the GUI and it loads well the libraries. I already tested 3 instruments without problems
I like the new instrument browser.

W10 , Studio One 5.5
If you only look at one side of the coin, you'll never truly know if it's a coin.

Here is my issue with Kontakt 7 (and every version after 6.6.1).

I have made many folders with a structure that goes like this: "Strings" -> "Audio Imperia" -> "Areia" for example. Made a custom wallpaper for the folder "Strings" and a custom *.nicnt file to go with it and added it to Kontakt.

In 6.6.1 the library tab "Strings" appears in Kontakt and everything is perfectly fine. You press Browse and there are all folders with company names and inside their library folders all organized and ready.

Here is my issue. In Kontakt 7 (and since version 6.7.1 I think), when I click on Browse on those custom-made library tabs they all are empty inside.

Did the architecture of Kontakt change or something? Or am I doing something wrong? Also if it changed can I do anything to revert back to the old behavior with the new Kontakt versions?

Thanks for anyone helping and thanks Bobdule for the amazing release!

Works fine here ( win10 ST1 ) being announced that it is easier and faster..the fact that they removed the attribute of calling the window quick load with the right mouse button was a terrible idea...very bad every time I want to call the window I have to open a menu first.

For KT 7.11 rev2 and KT 6.7.1 if it crashes Cubase go to Task manager and kill any CrashHandler.exe's then all should be good.
  Member 14.04.2021 3 114

could you explain this in more detail ?
when should I kill the CrashHandler.exe's ?
after cubase crashed or during ?

90 percent of the time when I load a Kontakt instance into Cubase 12 it crashes.

What is your experience with libraries installed on your system?
What tool you use for adding libraries?
Thanks in advance.

Hi. VST3 is not there in Ableton 11. It is there in the default install location but apon scanning Ableton 11 doesnt find it. I used the updated patcher and can get standalone to work fine but still no VST3. In my VST3 folder below the Kontakt vst3 .dll is a .bak entry with the same name. Is that normal?

Cheers in advance if anyone can shed some light on this for us.

PS I have an intel cpu that supports sse 4.1

Generally patches makes backups, probably when you patched it renamed original EXE to BAK. You can use VST/VST3 plugins with VST wrapper plugins like DDMF Metaplugin.

Are you sure that is not the Standalone version of Kontakt 7?
  Resident 1.07.2014 4 114

Bruh, you should look the title bar (01 - Kontakt 7 and 02 - Kontakt), that means track number in Cubase, and Cubase navigation bar below title bar (R, W, Up and down arrow), standalone doesn't have that, also look at my taskbar.

@Darkmatt3rs How you resolve a vst3 problem with v.6 and v.7. It's not a same plugin.
Please, explain how you do this.
Thanks for all.

Just install to default location my friend, my Kontakt 6 is vst2, maybe thats why I don't have conflict problem

I hope that maybe someone will find a workaround for win7 also. Unfortunately it gives a "CreateDXGIFactory2 dynamic link dxgi.dl error" at start. I have tried something to bypass or remove this error but for now without success. If someone find a way to use this on old OS too please share with us the solution. Many thanks
