    Hey all

    I am sorry if this has been asked before or anything, i've been trying to solve this problem for the past 5 hours and don't even know what to search for in the forums.

    I have the cracked Kontakt 8, and it loads the libraries which you "install" using an installer, but libraries i try to load, which aren't from NI, or not installed using an installer, just show up in DEMO mode, no matter what i do.

    Does someone know a solution to this?

    What version of Kontakt, 8.2.1? People have already mentioned this. Try to include your version, which releaser, and MacOS version. If it is specific libraries, mention a couple. Also if those same libraries worked in prior versions you had installed of them.

    One thing you can always try, is if you have a problem with one team's release; uninstall and clean up, then try the same version (or as close as you can find) but from a different team. For this one, either HCiso or Moria.

    Hey, thanks for the replies

    No, i am using version 8.0.0, by Moria, and i am on a 2021 MacBook Pro, Apple M1 Pro, running Sequoia 15.3.2

    What i can do right now, as a workaround, is just to keep my old Kontakt 5.6 for my old libraries and use Kontakt 8 separately for newer libraries that come with an installer.. Just sucks i can't use any newer libraries that don't come with an installer

    Got it to work

    For anyone running into the same problem:

    I installed the newest version (Kontakt 8.2 by Moria) which comes with 2 tools to add libraries, of which i tried the second one (KT Library add tool 2) and this one worked..

    Cheers
