Seriously? ...Seriously?! 20 hours of painfully searching through RUclips, Google, Reddit and order emails and the answer has literally been one click away? Instant like. Life saver.
my life has been saved by this video lol - thought i had to buy the full kontakt version to use this plug in I purchased from Soundiron.... thank you!!
Thanks for this! Might've changed in a newer version of Kontakt 7, but I was actually able to get the tags to show up by just clicking rescan in the very last step instead of removing/re-adding the instrument folder.
Nice walkthrough! Their site doesn’t explain the Kontakt vs KK differences, or the image file. Then there’s the old third party Kontakt libraries that require batch resave.. I honestly continue to use quick load, even in KK.
Thank you this worked for both my Soundiron Kontakt libraries!! 🙂 However, I tried this same exact procedure by trying to add a Wavelet Audio Senfine image along with its library in Kontakt 7, but it's not working for some reason!! 🤦🏽 Do yall have any clue what could be the reason??? 🤷🏽
for this to work, there cant be any . or - in the folder names, have to remove those characters in both folders, library folder and image folder names have to match.
As garywilliamson8680 said This is a very important step, I tried everything until I read your post, then I noticed that there were some ....dots, and - - - in the folder name, so I renamed both of the folders and removed the dots and the dashes and it worked, both folders must have the same name so you have to change them both, thanks and God bless.
Editorial on this video in June 2024: File Name for Image must be MST_artwork and the picture should be a png file. Only downloading the image will give you a Webp file. You will need to covert the file type to png inorder for Kontakt to recognize it.
This isnt working for me. Is there something Im doing wrong or missing? Im navigating to the right folder, creating a naming the folder exactly as it should be, using a PNG inside the folder with correct name and no picture.

Anyone know if these would be the same steps for macOS? Also, I’m glad I did not uninstall Komplete, because I didn’t think I had need for it if Kontakt 7 was going to handle searching sounds. Thank you, Nathan.
I've tried this method with other libraries, and it doesn't work still. I've made sure the names of the folder and the names of the library match too...
I'm going through my entire Omega Bundle library for Kontakt 7 - seems like a good thing to share when it's all setup, since you could just drag a zip full of folders with MST_artwork.png in them. I noticed that Bamblong V2.0 doesn't detect the image (not sure about the naming as-is), and also needed a Batch Re-save.
seen somewhere that it doesn't like the "." take the period out or replace with maybe a underscore. Not positive, Im also here trying to get information, haven't done it myself yet. good luck!
So I am doing all these steps and nothing is showing up? exactly the same steps you are taking. The only difference is I am not seeing 'select folder' I am seeing 'open'? Nothing is showing up inthe files ? I have full Kontakt 7
i unistallfrom control panel my oldest version of kontakt 6 and i installed the 7 one. How can take it off from fl studio the kontakt 6 ? and all the sounds???
From my experience, the content folder is not involved in the process. Your Users/Shared/NI Resources/Image chain is all you need which is accessed from your main hard drive.
About the process to add the visual that work well ! ABout the tags totally not... I think that your didnt show your process in real time about it, because in this video you add the library into the CUSTOM LIBRARIES, and then you say "make sure that it appear in USER librairies on KK, but to achieve this I guess, we should add them in the USER LIBRAIRIES in Kontakt... I tryed to import all my librairies in Kontakt by following your 1st step, and at the end No one appear in KK... Maybe all should be import by the USER LIBRAIRIES way... Its obscure. Anyway thank you for the tips about the visual!
THANK YOU. Cannot believe it was just that little settings cog. I clicked EVERYWHERE ELSE.
This is EXACTLY what I was looking for. Thank you! Now I'm going to skim through the Soundiron sound packs too

Yep, I fell into this rabbit hole ;^) Thanks for the help in shining some light on this.

thx man! you made my kontakt chaotic library to be looking nice n fresh
finally a straight to the point tutorial. thanks!
Thank you, this was really helpful!
Actually my first step into the depth of Kontakt and Komplet Kontrol.
Just need them to allow imports of multiple libraries at once.
Man, you just saved my life with this tutorial! Thank you!!!

Superb!
So simple. Thanx a bunch
Excellent tutorial. Thanks!!!
you are a GODSEND thank you
Great job
Thank you this worked for both my Soundiron Kontakt libraries!! 🙂

Do yall have any clue what could be the reason??? 🤷🏽
How do you locate a vst???
Hi , in Komplete Kontrol, I CAN'T Edit the information, it's said: "Item Read Only"
for this to work, there cant be any . or - in the folder names, have to remove those characters in both folders, library folder and image folder names have to match.

I was wondering what i was doing wrong
until i read this comment, thanks

I dont have that setting buttom, only up left one in menu, so im still confused to upload new librarys not native.
Click the Browser icon next to the Kontakt icon. It's at the bottom right as the SI rep described.
Thanks, this was very helpful!!! 👍
Glad to hear that it helped, Denu!
Fantastic! Thanks for sharing.
The files are added to my list but I get a message saying, "This instrument belongs to a library that is not installed currently!"
This isnt working for me. Is there something Im doing wrong or missing? Im navigating to the right folder, creating a naming the folder exactly as it should be, using a PNG inside the folder with correct name and no picture.
doesn't work for me either. Everything named the same. Oh well.
Did you ever figure it out because i'm going through that right now.
Please let me know. Thanks! 😊

not working for me...do not show the library even using the batch feature
Anyone know if these would be the same steps for macOS? Also, I’m glad I did not uninstall Komplete, because I didn’t think I had need for it if Kontakt 7 was going to handle searching sounds. Thank you, Nathan.
very similar steps for Mac yep. Included file paths in the description above.
This does not seem to work in the same way on Macs. Different prompts seem to come up. And finally, I could not get it to work.
It works perfectly, as explained, on my MacBook Pro.
You are the man, Thanks
For this to work, there cant be any . or - (im not sure)
in library folder and image folder, names have to match.
I've tried this method with other libraries, and it doesn't work still. I've made sure the names of the folder and the names of the library match too...

"This instrument belongs to a library is not installed currently" what can i do please !!!
Mine just says it's been added already, but it hasn't
So I am doing all these steps and nothing is showing up? exactly the same steps you are taking. The only difference is I am not seeing 'select folder' I am seeing 'open'? Nothing is showing up inthe files ? I have full Kontakt 7
why some librarys non playable charge as demo and other charge ful?
i unistallfrom control panel my oldest version of kontakt 6 and i installed the 7 one. How can take it off from fl studio the kontakt 6 ? and all the sounds???
Good morning
Can you tell me the procedure for deleting library from Kontakt 7 on Mac? I really thank you. louis
It worked - thanks! BUT ... does anyone know how to make a 3rd party library show up in the rack view?
Thanks for sharing the extra steps. Now how many evenings is doing all this going to take me. :-)
You're very welcome!
When I try and upload it it keeps saying that there's files missing even though I did it right. What can I do?
Not working.. :(
When you create the new folder for the png artwork. Name the folder the same as the library folder
Not available in my free version. Typical "Synth-Scene"... no informations nowhere. Only alternative: deleting again and hasta la vista.
I located my content folder and added it but nothing changed. Still "no libraries found here" :(
yeah same man
From my experience, the content folder is not involved in the process. Your Users/Shared/NI Resources/Image chain is all you need which is accessed from your main hard drive.
tnu soooooo much , u saved me
For many, many libraries - does not work this way! Yes the library can be added but not a image!?
Why?... did you ever figure it out yet???
@@tri-unetrl3966 adding an image doesn't work for me either.
Thanks 👍
are you naming all 3rd party kontaxt "mst"
Good question! 👍🏼
How to remove library from Library browser? I miss this important part!
You must delete the associated plist file. Refer to YT tutorials on how.
thank you so much!
bro, thank you
