Kontakt 7 VST3 doesn`t open in Mixcraft
Hi everyone,
So I got kontakt 7 and there`s only VST3 included and that doesn`t work well with my mixcraft 9 pro.
Do you recognize this issue? if so, any idea how to fix it?

Hi,
Did you allow the VST3 to install to its default location? What folder is the VST3 file in?
Edited to add: do you have Mixcraft 9.0 build 470?

I installed kontakt 7 with default installation directories. I copied the vs3 file from kontakt folder to the 3rd party vst folder in mixcraft .

Hi,
VST3 plugins are different than VST plugins. They all go into the same folder:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3
or
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\VST3
This is required by the VST3 standard. If the VST3 file isn't in one of those folders, it won't load.
Greg
P.S. "Program Files" is for 64-bit plugins and "Program Files (x86)" is for 32-bit plugins, theoretically.

Re: Kontakt 7 VST3 doesn`t open in Mixcraft
I deleted kontakt and reinstalled and removed all the kontakt vst from mixcraft folder. I added C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3 in mixcraft but still it won`t open properly. If it opens and not freeze , it takes like for ever to wait.
Any reason for that?

Hi,
It takes a long time to load on my computer as well. Kontakt 6 didn't do that. I wonder if it's contacting the server or something.

Will you look at it and try to find a solution?
I would love to stay on kontakt 7 and not need to go back to 6.7.1.

Because in Cubase 12, it opens super fast. Faster than previous versions even.

Re: Kontakt 7 VST3 doesn`t open in Mixcraft
Hi,
I figured it out. Kontakt 7 wants to add a whole bunch of multi-out tracks. If you go into Mixcraft's Plug-Ins preferences and turn off the option called "Automatically add all output tracks for Virtual Instruments," then it loads quickly.
You can then use the Config button in Change Instrument details to select as many outputs as you want.
