Confused about Garritan/Kontakt Player

[JonNewton]

I am installing older versions of GPO and JABB to my new Mac Pro OS 10.5.4. I've done all updates NI shows, and am running vs. 2.2.4 of Kontakt 2 Player.

GPO appears in Kontakt 2 Player browser, but JABB doesn't. JABB will open in standalone and play properly. Neither GPO or JABB shows up as an option as a plug-in in Digital Performer, tho both appear in the Library/Audio/Components folder.

I'm guessing that we're supposed to use Kontakt Player for everything now, and that there is a way to make it see JABB, but I can't figure out how.

Any assistance very gratefully appreciated!

Hi Jon,

Welcome to the Garritan forum on Northernsounds.
It sounds to me like you're still using the KP1 version of JABB. If that's the case, there's a free upgrade available to JABB-KP2 on the Native Instruments website. Simply log in and look under updates to request a serial number for it and download the installer.

GPO is showing up and loading properly within the KP2 browser, correct?

Hi Reegs--

Thanks for the quick response. I did find the Kontakt 2 installer, and now both JABB and GPO show up, very nice.

Actually, now I have another problem of a similar nature. I am trying to do the same process with Big Fish First Call Horns. I downloaded the similar Kontakt 2 installer. But when I run it, the installer crashes every time. I've emailed Big Fish and NI, but I wonder if you have any insight?
