No sound from Kontakt5 except certain keys at certain velocities

I bought the Anvils & Churchbells from Sampletekk in the PMI end of line sale, but I'm having some trouble with it.

When I load up the instrument, all samples load fine and are correctly displayed in the Mapping Editor. However, when I play the keyboard, most keys don't produce a sound. Only a few keys produce a sound, but only at some velocity levels.
When I click on the samples in the Kontakt interface, the sounds play fine.

Anyone ever seen this behavior from this or another library and found a fix?

I'm using the latest version of Kontakt 5. It's not my MIDI or routing settings as the exact same setup works for all my other Kontakt libraries.

Changed the thread title to reflect the generic odd behaviour (maybe it's not entirely library related?).

I would guess that some samples are missing. Have you tried rescanning for the samples?

That doesn't seem to be the case, robojam. But I'll check again and make sure.

I get no errors when loading the nki and I can click on individual samples in the Kontakt interface and play them back. Just playign them from a keyboard controller doesn't work...

So that narrows it down to keyboard mapping really I guess.

Have you contacted Sampletekk?

Is this one of those instruments that uses the Mod Wheel for volume? :shrug:

Try that on the Kontakt interface and also on your keyboard.

HTH

Happy Musiking!
