Kontakt loading twice on startup

Maybe someone knows the answer to this little annoyance.

I run Logic Pro 8 on a Mac G5. In most of my sessions I have 3-4 instances of Kontakt 3 loaded with EWQL Symphonic Orchestra.

Everything runs great, however, each time i save a session and later re-open it to work again all the Kontakt instances load up the sounds on start up (which is normal). But after the session completely opens all the Kontakt instances load the sounds up again.

Is there some setting in Logic or Kontakt that I don't know about that causes this to happen? It doesn't happen with any other AUs.

Hi.
I also have this problem on my macbook pro and my mac pro. I have had it for ages and have been in touch with tech support and they have not helped at all. It makes loading songs a incredibly slow.
Does his happen with everyone who uses Logic and Kontakt?
I would love to know how to stop this behavior.

 

Thanks for the reply. I posted this same subject on Northern Sounds forum and received 2 replies both saying they have the same problem but no one knew what was causing it. Are you having this problem with any other AUs?

I'll let you know if I find anything out.

Hey Al
It's strange indeed. I've been snooping around for ages to see if anyone else had this problem and I assumed it must have been me only as I don't recall anyone else mentioning it. It's so annoying. It has happened on fresh installs, and across different versions of OSX and Logic, it is consistent.
Also it happens on anything that uses the Kontakt Engine like Akoustik Piano etc.

 

I have some new Kontakt/Logic 8 problems so I logged in to the forums to see if I could find an answer.

I have this problem too. (also thought it was only me cause tech support seems to go blank when I ask about it)

I have even had it happen when I am deep into editing a cue. All of a sudden, for no apparent reason, all the samples load again.

Anyone here also have a slowdown when setting SENDs after loading Kontakt?

or

Do you notice that some patches (particularly 3rd party like Sampletech, NS7 Kit, Sonic Implants) create a problem where it spoils the finder pointers and no more samples can be loaded? Or that Logic itself just stops allowing any finder interaction? (like QUIT, PREFERENCES or any Logic header dialogs)
