    Hellow and good evening fellow Kontakters
    Orchestral Tools Metropolis Ark 1 awsome library just landed on the scene.
    Yet, it uses Kontakt 5.5.1. I presently am running 5.5.0, due to the fact that 5.5.2 was plaguing my libraries with problems...I wonder if this is also true with 5.5.1. Any ideas?
    Thanks mates.

    I'm not sure but I'm wanting to say that might in fact be the case. I steered back and stayed on 5.5.0 as well for that reason. When I upgraded past that I noticed I couldn't get a lot of libraries up with Kontakt Library Manager either. I have quite a few libraries installed and running fine in 5.5.0 that were intended for 5.5.1 or higher. Output just released Substance. It specifically says it requires 5.5.1 or higher and I have it installed and running just great. I suggest you try adding the Metropolis Ark library and if it doesn't prompt you with that created with a later version error you'll probably be all good.

    I think best way is to upgrade to latest version. The guys are releasing cracks with needed serials.
    I lost just couple libraries but mostly because they were pretty old (or converted in not very usual ways) but other than that it's fine. I didn't have a problem with any other 'new' library.

    What OS? I'm on Mac/El Capitan and v5.6.0 (the "fixed" version) runs like a top here. Some of the new aesthetics are going to take some getting used to, but I've had no problems with any of my libraries or even loading older instruments (though I always batch-resave everything when I upgrade to a new version of Kontakt).

    Just run it in 5.5.0, it's the most recent reliable version.

    I run Tracers 5.5.2 , it doesn't work with keygen. I too have a lot of libraries and had zero problems switching from 5.5.0 to this. I think that's your solution as well.

    The only lib I had issues with on 560 was one that was borked on 550, also. Everything else works fine, and I got a lot of libs. It might be an idea 2 keep the old 550 standalone so u can resave on that? The 560 standalone seems quite borked, atm, anyway.

    I mean, this is the way of doing it in the future, apparently. If u want integration w/ Reaktor, KK et al, this is the way that it will work. It might seem a bit of a pain having to wait for keygen update, for new libs, but it hasn't been a problem, yet. I mean, it's not like we get new Spitfire libs on release day. Or month. Or year!
