The Sequence is total disaster here. First of all- it crashes Continuata Connect. It downloads but when Installation begins, it crashes at 3%, leaving zipped folder and another "Sequence Library" folder. I was not sure which library to use. So I decided Unzip manually, using Extract All.

In my M/Kontakt/Big Fish location, It created:
Sequence/Sequence Library/Sequence which contains Sequence.nki

Unfortunitely, when loading Sequence in Kontakt, it does not see its samples. But in the strange way. I can test presets. The presets work (and they absolutely awful). Like I can load kits and the pattern would play. If I go to next kit and next kit, the samples get reloaded. But if I want to change sample of let's say Kick drum, I click on the sample name, it opens Browser, there are folders, but they are empty.

Now if I look with Windows Explorer, the folders contain files. So in
M:\Kontakt\Big Fish\Sequence\Sequence_Library\Sequence\Data\Kicks\Kicks Fat I can see samples, but in Sequence the folders are empty.
Edited due to subjectivity. Ok, I found some kick samples I can make work, like 20, so it is not too bad- they were in "Kick Punchy" folder. I can not select folder because folders appear empty. I dont know how it can go through all the samples. If I go left and right by clicking Next arrow, I can go through all samples, so they are there, I just can not load one on demand. Any thoughts? Thank you.

I had to post an update to be fair. Apparently, it was not bad installation or issue with installing to other than C drive. It was bad file. If you buy Sequence from Time and Space store- hope they already replaced it- the file they were distributing was bad. I contacted Big Fish Audio and they sent me properly working fixed file. So now all samples located in the folders and everything is working. I still have issue with it blocking the Stop button in the Sonar Transport. BFAudio said they informed the programmers about the issue and there will be update at some point. Now that it working almost properly, I can enjoy it. It is not bad. Recommend.
