Output oddities

As you can see I have created five sets of stereo outputs in Kontakt, but when I try to assign the second instrument in the multi to anything other than stereo 1 it does not give me that option. Anyone know why?

Surprisingly, it's the same here. But when you pick "create separate master output channel", at least it does create one that shows up in the output menu, and that one works.
 
It's work fine at home after click on the various Mic /Mixes .

Maybe set the Audio part of Kontakt in the right direction (Soundcard or Aggregate Device) ...
 
It depends on how the developer programmed their outputs. If they programmed it to rebuild the list whenever it's clicked, it will update instantly. If they do it on the build (ie on pgs changed) then it will require a kontakt restart/refresh via the ! symbol, or just setting up kontakt prior to loading the instrument.
 
Sure, but what Jay is asking about is in the area that is not under script jurisdiction, which is the instrument header.

In any case, directly after adding new outputs in Outputs panel, you gotta restart Kontakt's engine by pressing "!", and in some hosts even reload Kontakt instance for the outputs to stick.
 
I di that and no matter which library I choose it is the same. The outputs are there but Kontakt won't let me assign an instrument to anything but stereo 1.

Are there prefs to trash or how do I get an original Kontakt installer? All Native Access gives me are updaters.
 
So reloading Kontakt instance after you set up outputs doesn't help? Hmmm. Could be an AU related issue in that case.
 
But how- do I get a Kontakt installer? When I go to Native Access it only show me updaters and if I run an updater after deleting that stuff, it won't accept it.
 
Hmmm after you do the above uninstall procedure you should be able to install Kontakt from scratch within NA...
 
I couldn't update Kontakt a while ago (Yeah, I guess I stayed too long on 5.52 for developing) and NI support sent me a registry uninstall tool and after executing that Kontakt showed up as "not installed" in Native Access. And then I could simply reinstall it :)
