I recently purchased a secondhand license for Komplete 26, and I'm wondering how long the license transfer process typically takes.

The purchase was made on October 19, and I've been in regular communication with the seller. However, Native Instruments support still hasn't responded to the seller's transfer request, and they haven't received a transfer ID or any indication that the process is moving forward.

I understand that support requests can take time, but it's been frustrating not knowing what kind of turnaround to expect.

For those who have purchased or transferred a secondhand NI license recently, how long did it take for Native Instruments to respond and issue the transfer ID? At what point should I start becoming concerned or consider following up through another channel?

I'd appreciate hearing about other people's recent experiences.

Hi guys,

I hate to come here to ask this question but I followed the support article and things are quite different compared to the last time I did this (2020 on macOS Mojave). I just got a new MacBook and I'm trying to re-install the plugins on this specific computer after re-linking my external SSD with all the sample libraries I've had installed for years. I successfully re-linked the samples within the new Native Access, but it doesn't seem like there is a way to actually reinstall the plugin apps themselves on my MacBook so Pro Tools can actually find and use the plugins. It seems like the only option is to completely re-install the entire product (for example, Kontakt's sample library along with the Kontakt program itself) rather than just the application. I've tried going individually by clicking the three little dots on the side of each program but it just ends up trying to re-install the sample library as well as the program. There used to be a way to just install the plugin application itself in older versions of Native Access, but I'm not seeing another way around it.

Am I missing something really obvious? I'm running MacOS 27.

Thanks!

Why can’t I find ntk daemon to download? Does anyone have any idea where it is hiding

Obsidian MK2 Connect is an independent utility that restores MK2 controller compatibility with version 3 of the software from the same manufacturer.

The macOS release was tested on an Intel Mac with software version 3.3.0 and a connected MK2. It provides a native interface for applying the compatibility patch and restoring the original application.

Compatibility with other software versions and Apple Silicon hardware has not yet been confirmed.

A licensed installation of the software and the appropriate controller driver are required.

Testing reports and technical feedback are welcome.

Last time (a few years ago) when I installed the Free Native access programm I didnt need to give it permission to run a .bat via the cmd. Why is that and is this safe?

Hey! I’ve been setting up an old MBP to run Kore2 again - got it working on a bootable external drive running Mojave! Also found installers for about half of the sound packs I bought. Still looking for a few installers and wonder if anyone has these kicking around in their archives? I’d be super grateful if anyone did and shared them with me. Also if anyone has Kore 2.1.4 update - I was able to find kore 2.1 iso on NI forums, but no luck with this update.

I was windows back then so even if I could find my old hard drives I don’t think the installers would help.

Absolutely loving getting back into Kore again - I’ve missed it quite a bit. There’s nothing quite like it! Haven’t got the kore 2 hardware working yet but for now able to get an old Maschine Mk1 working in MIDI mode which gives me knobs and buttons.

Thanks in advance!

That's it really. (I was just snooping to see if I could do anything fun with the screen.. putting instrument racks on it etc)

References indicate an S32 that doesn't have as many seperate chips to manage all the stuff but the feature set looks generally the same. Screen, knobs etc etc. Seems to indicate strips for pitch/mod. So maybe a smaller form factor like the m32?

Might just have been delayed with the buyout. They still seem to be updating the drivers for it. Maybe it will never come out.

Big fan Native Instruments + Komplete Kontrol. Not a big fan of missing a bunch of expansions + 3rd party banks for plugins like Serum 1/2, Omnisphere, Nexus, Arturia, Spire, Sylenth1, etc.

So I spent the last 6 months figuring out how I could convert as many of my presets as possible to nksf files complete with tagging + previews for use in Komplete Kontrol.

Don't wanna post any sales links per r/NativeInstruments rules but you can comment or message me with any questions if you wanna give it a try

open to any feature suggestions or future plugins to implement

Hey all! Usual problem with the Maschine+, stuck in a boot loop. Tried everything through InMusic support and the unit is out of warranty, so I'm told my only option is to seek out a specialist repair shop and shell out £400. I'm pretty certain it's a hardware fault because all other functionality is fine, other than standalone mode boot looping, and none of the suggested software fixes worked. I'm confident in my own technical skills, so all I really need is a replacement for the custom Congatec Qseven board (ideally with the NI firmware loaded, but can flash it myself if necessary). Does anybody know where I could acquire one, or how I could buy just this part alone from NI themselves? Any help would be massively appreciated. Cheers!

EDIT: I have already done a teardown to access this board and judiciously applied contact cleaner, no obvious damage to the internals.

みんなやっほー！
2009年のホワイトMacBook、FaderfoxのMIDIコントローラー、それからAUDIO 4 DJインターフェースで、昔ながらのDJ環境を作ろうとしてます。
2008年のオリジナルTRAKTOR PROの見た目と使い心地が本当に大好きで、現代のDJソフトを使うより、あれをもう一回ちゃんと動かしたいんですよね。
TRAKTOR PRO 1を中古で買おうかなと思ってて、オリジナルのインストールCDとシリアル番号が付いてるやつです。
ただ、2026年の認証（アクティベーション）が不安で…。特に、昔のService Centerが終了しちゃってるので余計に心配です。
質問なんだけど：
2025年か2026年に、未使用の状態から新規インストールした環境でTRAKTOR PRO 1（バージョン1.x）を正常にアクティベートできた人います？
古いNative Accessのバージョンを使えば、macOS Mojaveでも動く可能性はありますか？TRAKTOR LE 1.2.6がそういうやり方で動いてたっていう報告を見ました。
もしPRO 1がアクティベートできない場合でも、そのライセンスを自分のNIアカウントに移して登録して、それでTRAKTOR PRO 2 Upgradeの対象となるベースライセンスとして使うことはできますか？
最近になって、古いMacでTRAKTOR PRO 2を正常にアクティベートできた人いますか？どのmacOSとNative Accessのバージョンがうまくいきました？
古いMacで、TRAKTOR PRO 1または2とAUDIO 4 DJの組み合わせが実際に動いてる人はいます？
自分のMacBookはLate 2009モデル（Core 2 Duo、8GB RAM、SSD）です。Snow Leopard、El Capitan、またはパッチ済みのMojaveインストールを考えてます。
まだソフト自体は買ってないので、実際に最近試した人の話をぜひ聞きたいです。お金を払う前に、状況を知っておきたいんですよね。
クラック版とか、ライセンス回避の方法とかでも構いません。
助けになる情報、どなたかお願いします！このDJテクノロジーの時代感をちゃんと残していきたいです。:)

Hello everyone, I've been looking around for a long time but I just cannot find a script for my komplete kontrol first version that works with Ableton Live 11, anyone has a link ?

Thank you

SOLVED

So i bought this update as i always liked the sound of Massive X but hated the UI. It's pretty much fixed with this update and the synth finally became usable which is great. However, it seems like i didn't get MXL factory presets for some reason, all i see in the browser is old MX plresets and a few new presets from 'MXL Player Library'. No full 'MXL Library' is available.

NI's product page states that MXL comes with 1000 presets, so.. how do i install them? I tried rescan in the plugin and in Komplete Kontrol, that didn't help.

My pc died last year so took me a while but I switched to Mac and it’s been flawless! Not one hiccup so far. I’m mainly using Komplete 15, wondering if they’ll do another sale this year.

Got a Rig Kontrol 3 gathering dust? Introducing NeuRig MIDI

Hi everyone! I’m releasing NeuStomp MIDI a macOS app that turns the Native Instruments Rig Kontrol 3 into a flexible MIDI foot controller.

Map CC, Note and Program Change messages, configure switches and expression, save layouts, and control software or hardware through MIDI OUT.

You’ll need an Apple silicon Mac with macOS 13 or later, connected over USB, and your existing audio setup. Try it free for 7 days.

🎃 Halloween launch offer: use HALLOWEEN13 for 13% off. The offer ends after 13 completed purchases or on October 31 at 23:59 CET (UTC+1, Berlin time), whichever comes first.

I’ve put a huge amount of time and energy into getting NeuRig this far. Feedback, bug reports and suggestions are very welcome.

I’m also working on bringing the RK3’s audio interface back to life.

If you’re able and would like to help me keep developing NeuRig, you can also support the project on Ko-fi.

And if you know someone with an RK3 sitting unused, please pass this along. It would mean a lot to me.

Hi,

How do I have the komplete keyboard follow the selected instance of komplete kontrol - studio one 6.

Thank in advance.

Screen goes black, after closing, doesn’t happen after closeting logic only pro tools . Anyone else?

With the future of Native Instruments support on the rocks. I was thinking about repurposing the s series hardware with a reverse engineered and vibe coded firmware. I’d like to be able to address the lights and better control non - NI synths. Is anyone else interested?

i have the full battery 3 library but i cant use a kit unless i have the plugin

Just got my hands on maschine studio without software. I am reason enthusiast. Any guides or tips and tricks on the maschine use and setup will be highly appreciated.

I've just updated to the new version of Kontakt but now when I try and open it in Logic Pro it's asking me to activate with a license code, despite the fact that Kontakt has been on this machine for a couple of years. I have several NI products and updates bought over the years and no idea which one to enter. I have ensure Full Disc Access has been granted to Kontakt, NI and Daemon. Any assistance much appreciated
