![]() I’m tired of companies that treat people like old news, when they won’t upgrade to the newest and latest product lines. I’ll continue to carry the software, but I’m looking now at different systems to upgrade to, for a more enhanced experience and less headaches. I invested into them because at the time I liked the direction they were going synergy-wise, but now I feel they’re going backwards and charging their clients too much for those mistakes. That being said… I have the Kontrol/Maschine system. It takes them a whole month or two and usually with a whole round of updates and you’re sitting there with useless product waiting that time for a fix. Which most companies usually fix within a week when reported, but not NI… they’re stubborn bastards and they know better than anybody else. You will find though, that once your VST and program folders are set correctly and deeply organized you almost never have issues, unless it’s on their side. You just can’t delete them or Roland Cloud won’t know they’re installed and won’t update correctly, but they don’t take up space and when you update the sound libraries you don’t have to copy anything over, just VST updates. Roland also has that issue with their VST2 folder, but the difference is, you can leave them there and copy them to your desired location and they work just fine. Which, is code for “shut up and move on!”. I know from experience, I’ve asked them 3 times and always get the same answer, “We can’t change it!”. Don’t bother asking them to fix it (if you have the same issue?), they’ll ignore you and pawn the problem off as if you should just ignore it. That one VST is the only one that refuses to be placed in a folder, and NI refuses to fix the issue, since it’s debut. As a matter of fact, the only VST I have always had an issue with is Kontakt 7. In some cases a single instrument uses both, such as Absynth or Massive, which creates even more issues when adding libraries to either instrument.Īfter doing so, I have had very little problems with performance and file locations. They never corrected their old folder allocation setups when introducing the Komplete Kontrol mkII lineup, so now you have to deal with both, the documents, AppData style and the common files data style. I wanted to make sure all the files and folders were done correctly in Documents, AppData, Program Files, Program Data and the associated VST folders, as NI products have always been the worst when it comes to randomly allocating folders on the drive incorrectly. The very first install I did when upgrading my computer was Native Instruments. Another bigger issue, there are some DAWs and other programs that can only use one file path for accessing VSTs, if they’re not organized correctly it can give people lots of issues and cause wasted time organizing instead of being able to jump into music while in a creative mood.Īlso, I always do custom installs and avoid AAX and 32bit when I can (I do not use ProTools). This helps me locate them faster, avoid doubles and have access to addition files saved within the VST folder without confusion (such as uninstallers’). Every time I download a VST2 or VST3, I make sure it is saved in it’s own vendor folder. When I upgraded my computer year before last, I made the conscious decision to thoroughly control all of the files and folders on my drives to avoid junk. I read the link you posted too-about a year ago, I got those types of messages and as people said in the thread, running in Rosetta fixed it (sloooooow though). ![]() Except the Pigments patches you get in the V collection, all of the other Arturias show up. I don’t have minifreak-have V collection, and a couple Augmented. I had a separate list of favorited patchces there for particular projects that I hadn’t yet marked in V collection favorites. They’re accessible in a submenu-so it has scanned them and recognized them, but they’re not in the library and the list of Arturia favorites I’d saved are lost. I can load Arturia softsynths from KK, but that’s not really how i was using it. I did some things people had already written online who had seemingly the same issue with prior versions of Komplete Kontrol, but none of those fixes worked. After is when I saw it was this bigger-type update (though I maybe wouldn’t have known until after it was installed anyway). I may have waited to do the update-I didn’t look closely at it because I changed computers and in the transfer just went ahead and did a batch-reinstall of all of my NI software. It actually is redesigned, so a significant upgrade (still no scaleable gui, which is bananas). ![]() The tab in native access for release notes has some short generic sentence. Thanks so much for taking time to reply and help out.
