    Well, so far I'm alone with my error... here is a different question:
    Does anyone on this board use Logic 6.4 or 5.5 with Kontakt 1.5.3 and Panther 10.3.4. Just seeing if this combo works for anyone at all. I get an error code and Kontakt can't load as a plugin into Logic.

    thanks

    i use logic 6.4 with kontakt 1.5.3 and panther 10.3.4, and it generally works except for some weird crashes sometimes, but i've mainly figured out how to prevent them.

    Kontakt, Logic, Panther

    Thanks so much for all your responses. I was hoping it was a bigger issue but I guess not. Probably something specific only to me. Well, I found a great drum module by Fxpansion called BFD to get me by on drums (was using Kontakt). I will be doing other sampler stuff and hopefully one day this will resolve by Kontakt since Emagic and Apple are clueless. Thanks again,

    Mike

    Hi Mike,

    I feel sorry for you but you must give back to Caesar what belong to Caesar
    ! (directly translated from French)

    It is normal that Apple nor Emagic can help you, you seems to have a NI
    problem.

    For the other readers :
    I have try to help this guy -- > resume :
    I have one question for you :
    Did you try to load stand alone KONTAKT, is it working ? did you
    configure it ? What is the setup !

    Everybody that has, "legal" KONTAKT 1.5.3, working under MAC OS 10.3.4 with
    Logic with only a few little problems.

    May be you have one file damage !
    If you could run Norton Disk doctor that may help !
    May be you should delete visible and invisible files with ³KONTAKT² in there
    name, and re-install KONTAKT from scratch, be careful when you do the
    different updates

    Thanks in advance.

    Best regards

    Cyril Blanc

    Hi Cyril,

    First off, my copy of Kontakt IS legal, NI has been emailing me about
    this, with no luck so far, and the emails take 3-4 days between replies
    which is typical, but I was trying the forums for the heck of it. This
    last post was just to see if this combo of software worked at all, I
    had given up. But here you are my friend, I thank you

    I re-installed Kontakt, I tried just using 1.5, now that pulled up as a
    plugin, BUT it doesn"t work correctly and crashes logic AND if I close
    it and try to open it again, it crashes Logic. 1.5.2 & 1.5.3 do NOT
    work. I upgraded from 1.5 to 1.5.2 then to 1.5.3 AND have upgraded from
    1.5 straight to 1.5.3 (per NI suggestion).

    The standalone version DOES work, it is configured to do 1 stereo out
    and 2 mono outs, DFD is setup. I"m not sure what other settings you
    want to know about, there are a lot.

    I could buy Norton Disk Doctor and run it, though I did run the Disk
    Utility from the Apple install CD when I was on the phone to them and
    all was well.

    I will try the Kontakt files search, I"ll have to look up how to search
    for invisible files.

    And just a reminder, this all worked in Jaguar 10.2.8 which is why I"m
    not sure about the damaged file theory and why I was trying to talk to
    Caesar.

    Thanks,
    Mike

    Hi,

    That is good new that you have the standalone version is working.

    Is there is another user on the list that has your Motu 896 and running
    Logic pro and Kontakt ?

    Do you have other Firewire devices ? If yes unplug them !

    If you make a new song with one Kontakt slot does it make Logic crash ?

    If so I will (it is trial and error)

    1) erase all "kontakt" and "native instrument" files and folder (in the
    "file² search there is an option to see "invisible files" (see the 4 pdf
    attached there is the 2 search and 2 the result I have on my G5)
    2) re-install Logic 6.4 (to be sure that you did not delete any files in 1)
    3) upgrade to Logic 6.4.2 and set audio hardware
    4) install Kontakt 1.5 from original CD
    5) Authorise it
    6) just set the DFD to 96 / 96 64 voices with standalone Kontakt. (DO NOT
    TOUCH the AUDIO SETUP DO NOT GO IN THE SETUP MENU (I HAD PROBLEM WITH THIS
    MENU and my Motu 424)
    7) upgrade to Kontakt 1.5.3
    8) Check DFD setup in standalone Kontakt
    9) Make a new song with one Multi kontakt and see if it crashing !

    Good to know is that there are plenty problems with Kontakt and Logic
    version before 1.5.3
    When you launch Logic and if the Kontakt plug-in is crossed. Set it as no
    plug ins save your song and re-lauch it

    I hope it is working !

    Best

    Cyril Blanc
