I may be just missing something obvious, but I have not found the Kontakt 5 library of presets after doing the komplete 8 install. Any insights from others who have done this process?
I was very distraught to see that Kontakt 3 is gone completely, though I can still access the presets and multis. This really trashes my banks and presets that were based around Kotakt 3. The user presets for scripts etc. that I created in Kontakt 3 do not appear in Kontakt 5. I was hoping that the update would be seamless, but it looks like I will need to do quite a bit of re-creating!
Where are the Kontakt 5 presets after upgrading to Komplete 8?

Thanks to Kevin at Muse I have this one figured out. He sent me the "receptorized" presets, and then I was able to copy over the Kontakt presets from my laptop installation of Komplete 8 by dropping them into the installer folder. Seems like unnecessary extra steps, but I am happy to have things working again.
Not very happy with the performance of Kontakt 5 so far! I will most likely go back to using Kontakt 3.5 for the most part so that I can keep using dual core mode in the receptor. Kontakt 5 is giving me major spikes! I had 6 instances of 3.5 running at 32 samples latency, and Kontakt 5 is spiking at 64 samples. It helps to disable dual core mode in both Kontakt and the receptor os, but that seems to be a step backward!
Big thanks to Kevin for his patience and responsiveness.

I've had the same problems with Kontakt 5 (dual-core mode is useless with it) and have come to the conclusion that Kontakt 4.24 gives me the best combination of performance and compatibility with current libraries.
Unfortunately there are some nice things only in Kontakt 5 format.
