Kontak 4 full needed to purchase for software. Really Bummed.

So I bought cinesamples products this holiday and one of them works fine with kontakt 5 player free. The other one only works with full version of kontakt 4. Well...there is no download for a full version of K4. Does anyone here know how to get this copy? I did email Native directly but have heard nothing yet. Sad that Cinesamples doesn't claim responsibility for selling a product that only works with a product that is obsolete. : (

Any help would be greatful here!!

 

does it allow you to purchase a crossgrade kontakt5? Check the list on the Kontakt 5 page where you select to buy via crossgrade

 

It does but how would this get me kontakt 4 when this is 5?

 

If it says it works with K4 then it should work with any versions released after K4. What CineSamples Library is It? Bc i have most of them and they are all working fine on 5.3 for me. Some Libraries will work with the Kontakt 5 free player, and some Libraries require a licensed copy of Kontakt in order to work. So if it says Kontakt4, Kontakt5 will work it just needs to be a registered copy. When you purchase libraries they usually will have that information in the details. They'll say "Will work with Kontakt free player or requires full version licensed Kontakt" hope that helps

 

NI has not made significant changes in Kontakt warranting a shift in the minimum requirement by plug-in manufacturers so most aim for K4 compatibility.

As you have learned the hard way the issue to watch for is whether they require the full version or not.
