Kontakt 8.4.0 released today

You can launch Native Access and read about what's new. I'm too tired to try to screen capture the list, covert to text, and then post here. Besides... I post 75% of the posts in this topic anyway and I'm gonna scale back how much effort I put into it. Only so many hours in the day, you know?

I did a full Time Machine backup before updating. It'll be a while before I trust Native Instruments 100% again when it comes to Kontakt updates.

For Kontakt 8.4.0. _

8.4.0 (2025-05-20)
Minimum OS requirements: macOS 13, 14, and 15 (latest update), Windows 10 or 11 (latest Service Pack).

Hallelujah indeed Brother James.

I purposely didn't rush out and buy 'verb plugins in the hope that this would happen one day. Good things come to those who wait.

... which won't even run on my 'puter and the legacy version won't do the Lex plugins, so great.

All I want is to be able to download the actual installers, which based on the video I saw looks like it could be an option in the application's settings.

If there's a trick I'd love to know it. Otherwise I guess I'll sort all this out when I move to AS.
