The majority of free third-party Kontakt libraries will work in “demo mode” in Kontakt Player. The “demo mode” means that you can only use the library for fifteen minutes. After that, there will be no sound on the output, and you won’t be able to access the editing features. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Technostica Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 It would be helpful if they stated whether the free LITE version is also encoded to work with Kontakt Player as is the paid for version. Nice to have access to a Lite version that is over 2.3GB anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's just the way NI works. Pay them a licensing fee for a serial number, or else! That's why it's uncommon to see free products for Kontakt Player, although a few exceptions do exist...

antler Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 A good idea to get the free Kontakt Player libraries where you can - I could be wrong on this, but I think you can upgrade to full Kontakt with some of them, even if it means waiting for the Summer of Sound. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, Antler, that is one of the best paths to the full version of a Kontakt and was how I did it back in the day 😎 When you have one of the Free Kontakt Player libraries you can do a crossgrade to the full version and Summer sales add more joy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
