MesaWinds and Kontakt 8 (full)?

[bengedlow]

I love my MesaWinds. And ...

I'm running Kontakt 8 Full v8.11.1 on an Apple Silicon Mac.

I recently upgraded from Kontakt 5. MesaWinds loads successfully in Kontakt 8 and the samples are found correctly. All of the instruments (.nki) load and play normally.

However, the custom MesaWinds interface is only partially rendered. Only the top banner with the ambience/reverb/delay controls is visible; the remainder of the interface is blank (black), so the instrument-selection and other custom UI controls are unavailable.

The library is complete (.nki, .nkc, .nkr, Samples folder, etc.), and there are no missing sample errors.

Is there an updated MesaWinds engine, GUI, or compatibility patch for Kontakt 8 / Apple Silicon?

Is it that the header area of the instrument is missing? If you switch to Kontakt's "Classic View", you should be able to get the instrument header area back.

The black space underneath the two instances of MesaWinds you have loaded is just the empty rack space in Kontakt.

Yes this all looks as it should in the default view of Kontakt 8.
