Kontakt Player Ardour WINE

Post by MIchaelScratch »

I'm working with Ardor on Linux (ZorinOS -> Ubuntu).

I can easily integrate most Windows VST plugins into Ardor with WINE (Windows 10) and yabridge.

I'm having trouble installing the Kontakt Player. I suspect that some additional Windows DLLs need to be installed.

Has anyone of you got the Kontakt Player to run under Linux via VST (test the free version)?

Sorry, I can't help you. And I know that it can't be straight forward. NI did everything that their software products aren't used outside THEIR intended way. But maybe some knows a solution.

To my experience (a few years ago), NI Kontakt was even a pain @ Windows. Required admin rights for almost everything. And NI Kontakt was much too commercial for me (clever multi-level paying). Finally, NI was the trigger for me to move to linux.

I have Kontakt Player running, installed before, but now for my laptop I can't install single NI product because latest Native Access does not install, and older install wants to upgrade itself. viewtopic.php?t=25181
