![]() ![]() I renamed the older one KontaktOLD.dll and left it where it was, and copied the 5.5.1 updated dll to where the older one was (and thereafter renamed the newer one KontaktNEW.dll so if anything happens I can revert to exactly where I was before I did this)īottom line is it worked ! So. dll in one folder and the newest 5.5.1 in another folder. I was poking around and found my older Kontakt. ![]() Thanks again! I will digest your note and do as you suggested, but just wanted to report quickly (as of 5 minutes ago) its fixed- at least so far all instruments load up. Paths listed in Cubase are as follows, with no apparent indication to me which one is the "default" path for Cubase:Ĭ:\Program Files\Common Files\Steinberg\VST2Ĭ:\Program Files\Steinberg\Cubase 7\VST pluginsĬ:\Program Files(x86)\IK Multimedia\Miroslav PhilharmonikĬ:\Program Files\Native Instruments\VSTPlugins 32 bitĬ:\Program Files\Native Instruments\VSTPlugins 64bitĬ:\Program Files\Native Instruments\Kontakt 5 Why is this path thing so convoluted and difficult- at least to me ? Anything I read about dorking with VST paths essentially said proceed with caution or you'll bitch everything up, often requiring a regedit, etc. All the articles I read always refer to placing VSTs in the C: drive, which is why when I'd get a new library I'd define the install to my G: drive. None of them have the G: hard drive listed where my instruments were installed to, so I don't even understand how Cubase finds the ones that working. If it helps there are TEN paths in my Cubase plugin manager and no doubt some are redundant, bitched up, some not in use, etc. Thanks again for your help and quick response. (And I also don't want to screw this up, as all my other Kontakt libraries are playing perfectly). I sure hope I don't have to uninstall the entire Kontakt and re-install it, as its 5 parts. In other words how/where am I changing "the path", and am I correct that "the path" is where the new Kontakt 5.5.1 installed to ?Īnd lastly, is it possible that the bad install was Session Horns and not the latest 5.5.1 Kontakt update- such that I should be re-installing Session Horns and not 5.5.1 Kontakt ? dll to that folder or move the entire Session Horns file there ? Or do i leave Session Horns alone and is there some way to change its path to look for the new Kontakt update where it has just been installed ? So, do I just re-download the latest 5.5.1 update and install it and does it take care of uninstalling whatever is necessary to uninstall ?Īnd sorry, I may be dense, but I didn't quite follow your further instruction to watch "which folder it's going to put the VST plugin."ĭo I watch where the Kontakt 5.5.1 update is installing and MOVE the Session Horns. no option to just uninstall just the 5.5.1 update) I don't see in the Windows uninstall any option other than to uninstall "Kontakt"- apparently in its entirety (e.g. ![]()
