Most Native Instruments sample libraries (e.g. the ABBEY ROAD DRUMMERS, the SYMPHONY SERIES or pianos like UNA CORDA) are designed to be used with the KONTAKT 5 Sampler. In case you do not own the full version of KONTAKT 5, there is a free KONTAKT 5 PLAYER version which allows you to use all the features of a KONTAKT-based Instrument.

Native Instruments uses a service called NIHardwareAgent which monitors the USB bus for the Maschine controller. Whenever this service is running, Imposcar 2 may crash and the kernel panics point to the VST, not the service. Im writing cause on this homepage it states that the following is the default path suggested by the installer: 64-bit plug-ins: C: Program Files Native Instruments VSTPlugins 64 bit. But my installer says: C: Program Files vstplugins. Should I use the one my installer suggests or change it to the first mentioned? The default location is: C: Program Files Native Instruments VSTPlugins 32 bit; VST location (64-bit) Windows only: This is the location for your 64-bit VST-plug-ins.

5. Loading your Sample Library in a Host Sequencer

Important note: Whether you intend to use your sample library with KONTAKT standalone or within a host sequencer, you must start KONTAKT in standalone mode once before using it as a plug-in. This step is necessary for KONTAKT 5 to build its database.

To use your sample library within a host sequencer, you must first load the KONTAKT 5 (PLAYER) as a plug-in and then load the sample library into the KONTAKT 5 (PLAYER) plug-in:

Open your host sequencer.
Insert KONTAKT 5 (PLAYER) as a plug-in in your host sequencer.
