Updating…
Problem loading KONTAKT library
and what to do if the missing files window occurs.
If Kontakt is having difficulty locating the files, executing a “Batch Resave” is necessary. This process significantly improves loading speeds and ensures everything is correctly installed.
To initiate a Batch Resave, open an empty Kontakt instance, go to File > Batch Resave, and confirm the action in the dialog that appears. Next, direct Kontakt to the folder where your collection is stored to begin the resaving of patches.
Should a “Missing Samples” dialog emerge, simply redirect Kontakt to the collection folder once more.
It is advisable to carry out a Batch Resave following each update of your library. At least if you run into slow loading times, or a missing files dialogue
Securing the Downloaded Files
Once you have successfully unzipped the collection, there’s no need to keep the compressed files within the collection folder. We advise saving them in a safe place for any future reinstallations. It’s important to note that we cannot assure the indefinite availability of re-downloads for purchased collections.
Best Practices
- Keep Organized: Maintain a consistent folder structure for your libraries to minimize issues.
- Backup: Regularly backup your libraries and their respective file paths.
- Update Paths: If you move your libraries, update the paths in Kontakt and your DAW to reflect the new location.
KONTAKT MIDI CHANNEL
BTW : If you’re not hearing any sound, first ensure that the MIDI channel your keyboard is transmitting on – matches the MIDI channel set in the Kontakt Instrument. This is a classic bummer.
