Hi Kontakt Guru, I have now a certain amount of new kontakt libraries that work only with the new Kontakt 5.3.1 It is safe to upgrade from my old 5.3.0 (R2R)to this new release? Will it work completely or there are some risks? One of this could be to lose the library Tab order (the order in which the Libraries appear on the left side of Kontakt)? Do you suggest to update or there are some other dangers?

 

just update your kontakt to 5.3.1 (there is no risk)
by the way don't uninstall the previous version
just install the update over the previous one and everything will be good

PS : in case if any libraries didn't show up in the left side of kontakt(just add the library again) and it will work
I did update to 5.3.1 and all my libraries did show up in my tab without any problem

 

Hello & Welcome to Audiosex,
"Kontakt Guru" is no longer among us, he was assassinated by a Mercenary Ninja on June 1, 1914 *no*

Let his soul rest in peace.

It was said the Guru solved many Kontakt issues but was betrayed when he didn't respond fast enough or lack of Info. As a Honor to him i keep his tag in my avatar to remind me, the great people that walk this Earth.

I thank you for keeping his name alive & well, Please tell you & your music friends to become active members here & share great moments.

Peace & Love


P.S What mr.Amine said is correct, or you can just grab the Kontakt .dll's & exe(Win)/ AU & .App(MAC) from the offline installer folders
How to use two Kontakt versions!!! - WIN

How to use two Kontakt versions!!! - MAC

 

thanx you all. I did the update and everything seems to work correctly - I'm just fixing some minor issues, but no big problems

 

there is a bug with Batch/Resave in 5.3.1 keep that in mind
