With the version 5.0.3 I had no problem, I was able to add the library and create my custom instruments, but with the latest version of kontakt when I click on 'add library' and choose my custom library nothing happen, the program get the command but no library appears in the library browser.ĭoes someone may help me to figure out the problem? Maybe there is another way with this version of kontakt to add custom libraries?! Save/overwrite the nki instruments and that's all. So open the nki files under the 'Instruments' menu of Kontakt and point the 'Samples' directory. Run the Kontakt and add your custom library by using the 'Add Library' button.ħ- The directories that the nki files search for their samples is changed by moving them. Save the file and move it back to /Library/Preferences directory. Make sure that the k2lib value you enter is different than the existing ones. You will need to add 2 lines for your new Kontakt Library. Then copy /Library/Preferences/ file to your desktop and open it using Textedit.

I have the PinkNoise Revolver package and I named the custom library directory as 'PinkNoise Revolver Library'.Ģ- Create 2 directories as 'Instruments' and 'Samples' inside your Library. With the version 5.0.3 I had a custom library that I create following these steps:ġ- Create a directory and name it as your nki sample's library.

I just upgraded my version of kontakt, from 5.0.3 to the latest 5.2.1 on Mac OSX 10.8.5 I'm sorry if someone has already written a similar topic, but I don't find nothing in the forum that help me with my problem.
