On Mac systems he AU and VST plugin versions of Kontakt will be automatically installed to the correct locations and it will show up in all your audio/midi programs that support Audio Units or VSTs. If you aren't seeing Kontakt as an available AU (Audio Unit) or VST plugin, simply reinstall Kontakt Player from Native Access. We recommend Kontakt 6 if it's compatible with your host program. For example, Kontakt 5.dll rather than the more current Kontakt.dll. Note: older versions of Kontakt, prior to Kontakt 6, will have the version number as a part of the file name. Restart Dorico and it should henceforth recognize Kontakt as a VST plug-in.
