Hi ,
I was really happy about the Kontakt 7 release from Bobdule today.
have installed it directly as it is written in the readme.
The standalone works fine but unfortunately my Cubase 12 crashes right after loading a Kontakt instance with the following error message.




I already had the same problem in the Kontakt version before and have therefore very much looked forward to a new release, in the hope that it works with the new version again flawlessly as before.

Do you have the same issue ?

After the Rev 2 was uploaded I installed it.
But unfortunately it behaves the same as the six version.
in 95 percent of the cases cubase simply crashes.

And with the standalone it is quite strange, when I want to open it I click on open, the pc then does something, you can hear how it works but nothing happens.
Sometimes I have to open kontakt then two or three times until the standalone opens. I have made you three videos.
in this case i have klicked two times till Kontakt gets open.

I do not know what it is but I hope so much that we get the problem somehow in the handle.
the whole thing makes me really crazy.

 

I tried the R2r version earlier and it caused exactly the same problem.
In other words, it's not the patcher or Bob's version.

 

R2R Kontakt 7 working fine in legit Cubase 12

the error message say Library error.

try to find the blocking one.

 

how can i find the blocking Library , sorry for my dumb question

 

Try Bobs Rev 3 on the sister site

 

Scan libraries in stand alone mode also, that stopped the crashing for me. But I removed it again, don't need it yet.

 

What do you mean with Scan the libraries ?
All my Librarys are listed in the Kontakt Browser .

 

There is a Rev3 from Bobdule (Fixed Kontakt 7 being blocked on some DAW) and the
R2R Version (A witch says,Our keygen supports KONTAKT and KONTAKT PLAYER. If you are just using
it for playing libraries, you can consider activating PLAYER version. Less is more sometime!
Only RSA public key is patched. Works as it is. Works like original version. Because this works like original version, we don't guarantee the compatibility for inproper, modified,broken libraries.)

have you tried these Releases to fix the crashes?

Yes i have tried this Version....
Works for me 70 percent of the time.
In any case, I have to open and close the standalone every time before I can open kontakt in Cubase, otherwise Cubase crashes.
But if I open the standalone first, it works 70 percent of the time.

The R2R Version doesnt work

Edit :
I must correct myself, even the Rev3 works only 50 percent.
It also makes no difference whether I have previously opened the standalone or not.

I just test installed Studio one version 5.5.2 R2R to see if Studio one crashes when I load a Kontakt 7 instance.
To my dismay I found out that the version 7 Rev 3 works in Studio one without any problems....
That means the whole thing is probably Cubase 12 or something to do with it.
What could that be ?

I am absolutely at a loss

 

i just tried to open Kontakt 7 via blue cats patchwork in cubase , the same problem exists .

 

rev3 solve all. tested on S1 and Nuendo 12

 

If this is really the case, there must be another error.
Is it possible that there is an old file somewhere on the system or that an old patch in the registry is causing the error?
If this is so, how do I find out which file or registry entry this is and how do I get this deleted?

 

Use an uninstaller like Revo. If deep surgery scares you just back up the whole OS drive first.

If you have already uninstalled a previous version, then install it again and then use Revo or the like to uninstall all of it including the registry entries.
Just click trough it ticking everything (if using Revo) including all that it throws up,even the things that seem to be unrelated on Revo.
This is no time to be timid. As the replicant said in Bladerunner, "time to die".
Destroy that AI in order to save it. Or as in Apocalypse Now: Back up then "Terminate with Extreme Prejudice".

 

So I guess the crash is only happening on non-legit Cubase versions. Kinda makes me glad I have a legit copy.

 

clean the Kontakt cache
this is a database error result from previous version, every time you change the files it will rebuild a new database from crossed versions.
that's why it crash.

residual native access files are here:
C:\Users\user name\AppData\Local\cache

residual kontakt files are here:
C:\Users\user name\AppData\Local\Native Instruments\Kontakt 7

you can delete these folders
launch the application (standalone first) to rebuild correctlly this part.

same shit for DAW cache if blocking, it will need to rescan the plugins.

Cubase residual is here:
C:\Users\user name\AppData\Roaming\Steinberg\Cubase 12_64\Cubase PRO VST3 cache

clean correctlly your machine rather than install/uninstall, cross the versions and scan regedit.
residual files are not allways deleted by uninstallers. it need a visual check.

 

I have to agree with Bob on this subject. Bob is the Prince of freedom for new music.
I still think my uninstaller idea is good but Bob is right. You have to double check and clean the registry, especially when the system is constipated with shit.

Je dois suivre Bob Dule à ce sujet. Bob est le Dauphain de la Liberté de la nouvelle musique du monde.
Je pense toujours que mon idée de désinstallation est bonne mais Bob a raison. Vous devez revérifier et nettoyer le registre, surtout lorsque le système est constipé par de la merde.

 

I have now removed everything that had to do with Kontakt from the registry before uninstalling Kontakt .
then I reinstalled and patched Kontakt rev 3.
I then received the following error message in Cubase :
The following plugins have been added to the blocklist
Please note 32 bit plugins are no longer supported.



after that i tried to remove kontakt vst3 from the blocklist. This worked after the sixth try , each time Cubase crashed .
Now I have exactly the same problem as before .
I have uploaded the plugin report in case it helps.

the folders that bobdule said I have of course also deleted before



I also tried it a few times with Studio one.
There it happens just like in Cubase 12 .
You load a Kontakt instance and Studio One crashes, the whole thing happens completely random.
Sometimes it works, sometimes not.
With the standalone it is the same.
I was today at a friend , there we have Cubase 12 , exactly the same release what I also own and Kontakt 7 Rev 3 installed.
On his PC it works flawlessly.
