NI have closed off Kontakt .nki to third party conversion. The big reason to keep M53 around for me is converting older NI sample formats and other third party formats. Kontakt 6 doesn't convert anything anymore. It's stupid, MainStage is $20 and AutoSampler means anyone can convert their hard and software to EXS sample files. There's a bug currently in Falcon when converting EXS files, hopefully that gets fixed.MIDI Life Crisis wrote:And presumably Kontakt and PSP stuff opening in it as well?

Falcon 100% is compatible with M53 libraries, there's literally no difference. This makes sense, because Falcon is MachFive 5, it just went to live with its dad during its teenage years.
