HELP! I can’t “Auto-convert individual midi track to audio track” in RealBand.
I usually use Native Instruments on most tracks.
When I went to Native Access I noticed there were recommended updates so, foolishly, I clicked ‘update all’.
The trouble was all the NI programs updated to Kontakt 8 specs and I was using Kontak 7 so I kept getting error messages saying my version of Kontakt was too old.
The Native Instruments website (https://community.native-instruments.com/discussion/47286/session-guitarist-updates-and-compatibility-with-kontakt-7-6) says “please note that you do not require the full version of Kontakt 8 for NI libraries, the free version available to anyone is enough.”
So, I downloaded the free Kontakt 8 Player. All seemed OK until I tried to “Auto-convert individual midi track to audio track”. An error message pops up: “An exception error has occurred. You can continue to use the program but should likely save your work and reboot program.”
Funnily enough, I can “Auto-convert individual midi track to WAV file” and then import the wav file but this is a laborious workaround if I have lots of instruments.
Any assistance or advice would be appreciated.
