Native Instruments Kontakt 5.6.5 (FIXED,  NO KEYGEN) STANDALONE, VSTi, AAX x86 x64 (NO INSTALL, SymLink Installer) screenshot
WiN X86 X64 | 443.30 MB
KONTAKT is the world’s leading software sampler. Its sophisticated sound engine, wide array of effects, powerful modulation possibilities, and advanced scripting brings a universe of sound to life with unrivaled playability and realism. And with an ever-growing feature set, KONTAKT continues to be the sample engine behind the future of sound.

INFINITE SOUND

The KONTAKT Factory Library includes a versatile range of instruments right out of the box – a ready-to-use toolset of over 43 GB of high-quality samples and more than 1000 production-ready instruments, including synths, choirs, acoustic and orchestral instruments, drum machines, and much more.

KONTAKT’s cutting-edge features and advanced performance possibilities are the driving force behind Native Instruments' growing list of premium sampled instruments. An open platform for development, KONTAKT powers a vast array of third-party instruments from the world’s top instrument builders.

EDIT AND BUILD

KONTAKT is a playground for anyone working creatively with samples. Arrange, edit, loop, slice, and time-stretch your samples using seven playback modes. Shape samples in ways subtle to extreme using 84 built-in effects. Animate any sound with endless modulation possibilities and take control of multiple sample groups with sophisticated routing options.

LIGHTING THE WAY

The KONTAKT interface mirrors the Light Guide on KOMPLETE KONTROL S-SERIES keyboards for one-to-one visual feedback when looking for key switches, setting up key splits, and more. It also helps instrument builders turn their original concept into an integrated software/hardware solution that works flawlessly out of the box.

WHAT'S NEW in 5.6.5:

- ADDED New KSP UI control: XY Pad
- ADDED Re-introduced the Global Purge controls (removed with 5.6.0) as part of the File menu
- FIXED Some effects would block sound when loaded through KSP
- FIXED The Group MIDI Channel setting menu was broken
- FIXED Vertical window resizing was sluggish under certain conditions
- FIXED The KSP bitwise operators would cause parse errors in certain cases
- FIXED Crash when double-clicking on the header of Expert>Groups tab
- FIXED Crash when using certain context menus
- FIXED Crash when using the Next / Previous NKI buttons under certain conditions
- FIXED The size of the Quickload area was always reset after restarting Kontakt
- FIXED There was a graphical issue with level meters on instrument Performance Views
- FIXED The “Unwind Automation” setting was ignored by automation assignments made via KSP
- FIXED Issues with certain audio interfaces when using Kontakt standalone

This version does not require installation.

5 To avoid collisions, to create symbolic links,
you must uninstall the previously installed plug-ins, saving operating time (presets, etc.)
remove all traces of a file system *, to avoid conflicts when creating symbolic links.
* The list of folders in the absence of which you need to make, see below -. [[[For more information. Placing content]]].

C\Program Files\Common Files\Native Instruments\Service Center - folder registration * .xml files.
- this folder can not be deleted.

6 For instant installation on the basis of symbolic links * run right the CMD (for Windows 7) from the administrator (* if necessary, the correct way to VST in CMD).
* For more information, see .: HELP CMD.htm

7 Start the DAW and plug-ins to update scan. All.

Kontakt 5.aaxplugin

To unlock, create symbolic links for Kontakt 5.aaxplugin,
remove the symbols "-" in front of the rows in the x64 Windows MKLINK VST.cmd (edited in Notepad or another text editor).
Code:
- cmd /c mkdir "%COMMONPROGRAMFILES%\Avid\Audio\Plug-Ins\Native Instruments"
- cmd /c mkdir "%COMMONPROGRAMFILES(x86)%\Avid\Audio\Plug-Ins\Native Instruments"
- cmd /c mklink /j "%COMMONPROGRAMFILES%\Avid\Audio\Plug-Ins\Native Instruments\Kontakt 5.aaxplugin" "%~dp0AAX\C\Program Files\Common Files\Avid\Audio\Plug-Ins\Kontakt 5.aaxplugin"
- cmd /c mklink /j "%COMMONPROGRAMFILES(x86)%\Avid\Audio\Plug-Ins\Native Instruments\Kontakt 5.aaxplugin" "%~dp0AAX\C\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Avid\Audio\Plug-Ins\Kontakt 5.aaxplugin"
So:
Code:
cmd /c mkdir "%COMMONPROGRAMFILES%\Avid\Audio\Plug-Ins\Native Instruments"
cmd /c mkdir "%COMMONPROGRAMFILES(x86)%\Avid\Audio\Plug-Ins\Native Instruments"
cmd /c mklink /j "%COMMONPROGRAMFILES%\Avid\Audio\Plug-Ins\Native Instruments\Kontakt 5.aaxplugin" "%~dp0AAX\C\Program Files\Common Files\Avid\Audio\Plug-Ins\Kontakt 5.aaxplugin"
cmd /c mklink /j "%COMMONPROGRAMFILES(x86)%\Avid\Audio\Plug-Ins\Native Instruments\Kontakt 5.aaxplugin" "%~dp0AAX\C\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Avid\Audio\Plug-Ins\Kontakt 5.aaxplugin"


If "set" a past version of Kontakt 5.6.1,
it is sufficient to replace the installed files in the * distribution files from a folder:
..\NI_Kontakt_v5.6.5_fixed\
- x86: Kontakt 5.exe, Kontakt 5.aaxplugin, Kontakt 5.dll, Kontakt 5 16out.dll, Kontakt 5 8out.dll
- x64: Kontakt 5.exe, Kontakt 5.aaxplugin, Kontakt 5.dll, Kontakt 5 16out.dll, Kontakt 5 8out.dll

(* recommended to backup replaced - for example, move or rename).

You even can install R2R's 5.6.5 update with earlier versions of Kontakt (was 5.5.1 in my case) without any complications. Afterwards, follow the steps jkst has stated. By the way - no problems with "Hammersmith" here!

Was easier than it seems. Thank you mate for the detail.
I suggest to remove the instructions to the moderator due that it confuses more than it helps.

Thanks for this useful release.

Hey everytime I try to install Kontakt, starting with 5.6.1 it won't work. The windows installer just stops and the Kontakt app tells me installation is not possible because the full version of Kontakt is found on this computer. The only NI software I currently have or have had is R2R's version of Massive...I'm running WIn7. Where should I start troubleshooting?

have 5.5.2 and just replaced files with this version of 5.6.1 a while back and it worked, so i suspect no problem with 5.6.5 here. Thanks!!

Same here. Works like a charm after making an 'in place' replacement of exe and dll files from previous symlink version.
Thanks too

I had v5.5.0 (R2R) and just replaced the files using the jkst's method. Works great. :)

Say I wanna make a free Library to share with friends. Will this version give me any advantage over the R2R one?

I know that this will sound excessively out-of-date, but has anyone successfully installed one of the recent Kontakt 5.5+ setups on Win XP ? I'm currently still stuck (on one machine that refuses to die ) at 5.3. I tried the Unipatcher approach but without success. Many thanks in advance for any advice!
  Member 31.03.2015 105

If I am not wrong, v. 4.3 was the last that worked on xp, with some kind of additional patch and unpacking of the installer.


Anyway, can the 4 Galaxy pianos be played on this version ?

@tarkovsky1 Kontakt 5.3.1 is as far as xp and vista will go.
Good news is we are saveing so much time and HD space not been able to update

Thanks. Besides, still making a lot of good music with 5.3.1, I will drive this thing until smoke comes out of it.
  Member 24.08.2016 2 39

A late reply: 5.3.1 works just fine. And if you want some of the newer libraries, just install them and use the .wav by themselves (the .nki won't load anyway) and do your own tweaking. By and large most of the library bells and whistles are just standard Kontakt sig proc, which generally aren't as good as external dedicated plugins. There are also a lot of scripts out there that can be used to do some fancy footwork with the raw .wav files if you want to play around in that direction.

So, if I understand jkst's instructions properly... all we need from this package is the "NI_Kontakt_v5.6.5_fixed" folder, and we can discard the rest of the 1+ gigs that were unpacked? (I hope, since I can't understand any of the rest of it)
  Resident 28.09.2015 1 254

Yes, you are correct. I did just the described dll's replacement and it works for both x32 and x64. (I did this over R2R's v5.5.0.)
