Kontakt 2*8 and Kontakt 2*16

[philosorhymes]

I have three flavours of Kontakt 2 on my Receptor, Kontakt 2 Kontakt 2*8 & Kontakt 2*16. I wanted to create an instance of the Kontakt 2*8 to reduce memory consumption but found that there were no libraries associated it with it at all. I'd had have to go and receptorise these myself. Instead of this I thought I'd just copy the patches from the ones under the Kontakt 2 folder, but it says I don't have user writes, My question is three fold:-

Firstly, has anyone else experienced this problem (i.e. no patches receptorised for K2*8 and K2*16?)

Secondly, does anybody else have these three flavours of Kontakt 2 installed. (They appeared after using the latest install)

Thirdly, does anybody know how I might be able to get write permissions to the other Kontakt folders so that I can copy the patches patches from the Kontakt 2 folder over to K2*8 and K2*16?



Thanks so much Guys!

Hi there
I haven't looked into the write permission stuff so sorry can't help you there. However the K2*8 and K2*16 are multiple output versions of Kontakt eg 8 and 16 outputs. That is my understanding btw and yes we would all have the 3 versions as part of that install.

Cheers

Thanks ksiragusa, how about your patches? Do you have any preconfigured patches under K2*8 or K2*16? Many Thanks.

I have three flavours of Kontakt 2 on my Receptor, Kontakt 2 Kontakt 2*8 & Kontakt 2*16. I wanted to create an instance of the Kontakt 2*8 to reduce memory consumption but found that there were no libraries associated it with it at all. I'd had have to go and receptorise these myself.

Yes, there are no receptorised patch support for the multi output versions.

Secondly, does anybody else have these three flavours of Kontakt 2 installed. (They appeared after using the latest install)

Yes, the latest kontakt2 updater includes all three flavours. This was part of the NI update for Kontakt2..

Thirdly, does anybody know how I might be able to get write permissions to the other Kontakt folders so that I can copy the patches patches from the Kontakt 2 folder over to K2*8 and K2*16?

Unfortunately the regular Kontakt patches wont work on the multi output version, even if u copy them to the multi output version folders. The different flavours of Kontakt use different ID's which disables the original receptor fxps to work on all the flavours. U would have to manually save the receptor patches of interest. It would have taken us a lot longer to release the update if we had to save these 1000s of patches for all the different flavours. Sorry for the inconvenience..

Perhaps the regular Kontakt FXPs could be bulk modified to contain the ID's for the multi-out versions, assuming that the IDs are known, and that the FXP files are otherwise similar. I'd be willing to do this if someone wants to PM or e-mail me so we can try a few experiments.
