Once again, NATIVE INSTRUMENTS raises the bar with KONTAKT 5 ù the latest version of the industry-leading sampler. KONTAKT 5 takes a bold leap forward with 37 new filters, four new on-board studio effects, updated time-stretching, a new instrument bus system and more. As you will see from the new STUDIO DRUMMER, for example, it's a deep-rooted update to the KONTAKT platform, allowing us ù and you ù to create even better instruments and more powerful, expressive sounds.

install:

For an instant installation based on a symbolic link, run:
Kontakt 5.6.8 Symlink Installer.exe
Uninstallation can be performed as standard - via the Windows Control Panel.
Note:
In the distribution, there is another installation script:
NI Kontakt 5.6.8 SymLink SLI installer CMD version (Unzip here) .7z
It is extracted if necessary so that its files are located next to the main distribution content folder - .. \ C \.
{4} {Final Round}
The installation is complete and, in addition, you must open the DAW and perform an update plug-in analysis.

CMD version (Unzip here) .7z

run Kontakt 5.6.8 Symlink Installer

Still at Kontakt 5.6.6 here...and i don't dare to install anything else yet... My kontakt is running just fine for me to screwed up everything and ohhhhh boy! I went through a nightmare with kontakt before and i don't miss it!!!!!!!!!

With each kontakt upgrade it's becoming a real hellish experience. Who knows what these guys at NI are planing for us at later kontakt versions.

I'd just upgrade if it is necessary (if your current Kontakt is unstable or a release requires a new version). Otherwise there is no gain to be had from upgrading.

With version5.6.6,i just extracted the dll's from symlink installer and copied and replaced previous version and all works fine.Has anyone tried that with this version??

It wont work... I tried it as well and when i click "add lib" there was an error that cant find "add library.exe" from symlink version. After installation works ok here but remember that with installation the previous versions of kontakt will be uninstalled.

@homer_simpson - Stupid question: What does symlink actually mean? I think I am still at Kontakt 5.5 or sthg. but also want to be able the new(er) libraries soon.

Let's assume I will re-install my whole PC soon (which I will do) and I want to install this version, what are the required steps?

Do I need a previous (R2R?) version for this version to be working? If so, which one?

Can you explain step by step for dummies how to install this version?


That would be awefully nice of you. Sorry, but sometimes I am to stupid when it comes to installing something that hasn't the normal process most other plugins are installed by.

@audiozlover..... i dont know what exactly symlink means etc but the important thing is that it works :D

To install this symlink version u dont need any previous versions becouse during installation u will be asked for uninstalling older versions.

Install:
1. run "Kontakt 5.6.8 Symlink Installer.exe"
2. choose 32bit or 64bit or both
3. choose a folder where to instal vst.dll plugins
4. done.
5. run kontakt
6. have a fun

:)

Oh, that's actually it? Ok. :D

So thank you very much for the info.

Some people here explained here how to do it and it sounded
very confusing, which made me think the process could be kind
of complicated.

But this seems like a normal installation routine, hahaha. :)

Thx for the clarification and help!
Have a nice weekend!

I´ve had for months the Kontakt 5.6.5 exe in a carpet in My Documents while running version 5.6.8 as Vst & Standalone. When I want to add a new library just open that one, add, close and open 5.6.8 , the new library is ready to use, even my older ones from 2010 Kontakt 4. I´ll try with this version just backing up the 5.6.8 dll´s & exe and see what happens.

Could you put the process on which you had done the whole ".dll" rename trick? I had tried looking for the process to which it was done but cannot find it anywhere. I am thinking about doing this to save some headache.
Thanks in advance

Works weird, it worked with some libraries but for example the last orchestral library posted here a couple days ago I add the library then restart Kontakt and still tell me that the new library must be added and so on.
  Member 2.06.2016 2 342

Phobic, you don´t have to rename nothing. Just need to have 5.5.2 installed, then download 5.6.5

https://audioz.download/software/win/122173-download_native-instruments-kontakt-565-fixed-no-keygen-standalone-vsti-aax-x86-x64-no-install-symlink-installer.html

extract and use only the file named C where the new dll´s and exe are, 32 & 64, you can delete all the other things. Go to where you have your plugins, cut and paste the three Kontakt dll´s in some safe place and copy in their place the new dll´s. Go to where the Kontakt 5.5.2 exe (standalone app.) is and move it to the new carpet with 5.5.2 dll´s, replacing with the 5.6.5 exe and that´s all. Now open your DAW, open Kontakt and you´ll be running 5.6.5 with all your libraries. In case of any problem just replace again the dll´s & exe from your backup. Hope this help.

Easy installation.

Just extract all to "C:\Kontakt 5.6.8" <-- make a folder

Then just run "Kontakt 5.6.8 Symlink Installer.exe" from there.

Done.

Thanks PiRAT. =D

Sorry, another wasted file posting, as all of these "SYMLiNK" postings seem to be. Wait for R2R!

Password??? Where?

When I finally figured out the password, the rar file was corrupt.

quote by OlymoonSo many things was supposed to never appear here .....


Thought so. Seems like R2R ain't gonna release Kontakt 5.6.8 or 5.7 ever, or may be i'm wrong, it's something of a Cat-Rat game between NI developer or R2R, no one wants leak the secret of hard coding...

extract the archive and place it in a place on your hard drive where you can keep it permanently - ProgramData or whatevr. Then use the symlink installer and that's it. Do not delete the folder containing the installer.
  Resident 30.01.2014 7 2166

Thx for the help. But unfortunately I don't get it.

This dl contains "only" one .exe file named "NI Kotakt 5.6.8 AL SymLink Installer.exe".

What do you mean by "extract the archive..."? There is only the installer, as mentioned. So which files should be placed in (e.g.) the "Program Data" folder?

Could you explain this in deatail for dummies (like me), please?
