Kontakt 4.2.3 crashes on Kontakt 3 Library...

Hi,

i did the latest update to Kontakt 4.2.3 and i went back to 4.2.2 because if i try to load the "Jazz Guitar" Patch from the old Kontakt 3 Libray (Band) Cubase (6.02) hangs and Kontakt crashes. Anybody here with same experiences?

All the best,
modular TH

 

Hi there,

I'm not an expert (I've myself an issue to solve...), but my simple question is:

"Have you ever updated Kontakt4 libraries?".

I hope this helps.

 

Yes, all the libraries (Kontakt 4 and Kontakt 3) are the latest versions. 4.2.2 is working with some old patches of the Kontakt 3 library, that's important for me. I don't understand why 4.2.3 isn't able to load the same patch anymore.

 

4.2.3 is flakey for alot of people.

I rolled back to 4.2.2 for now.

 

Hey toddk- this might be a stupid question- but how do you roll back to 4.2.2? I'm having issues with 4.2.3 as well.

 

Hi!

You just have to replace the 4.2.3 dll in your VST Folder with the 4.2.2 dll. That worked for me.

 

Hi Modular- thanks for the note! If that's the case, then I'm stuck- I almost certainly deleted the 4.2.2 long ago. I might just have to delet3 and re-install from the dvd.

 

I've taken to making a copy of the plugin dll files before I do a Kontakt update. THat way I've still got the previous version around if I need it.

 

This is a great example to the person in another thread whom did not see any
point in backing up updates.

Always keep everything! You will probably need it at some point.

Buy Acronis True Image, and record an image of your C drive.

Everything you've ever installed or downloaded should be on an external drive.
Never delete ANYTHING..

Yes, it is the convolution bug.
