How to Resolve Issues with Missing
Samples for a KONTAKT Library (Batch re-
save)
This article explains how to Batch re-save a Library in KONTAKT 5. This
function can help if you get a Samples Missing dialog when trying to load
an Instrument from a particular KONTAKT Library. This means that the
KONTAKT Instrument is unable find its samples. For example, this
can happen if you have moved the Library from one computer to another;
the file paths of the samples now invalid. Performing a Batch re-save will
correct the file paths of the samples for all KONTAKT Instruments within a
Library. In this example, we try to load The Giant Instrument from THE
GIANT Library, but KONTAKT cannot locate the samples corresponding to
the Instrument.
To resolve this issue, follow these steps:

1- Select Batch re-save from the File drop-down menu within


KONTAKT's Main Control Panel.

2- A warning dialog appears. Click Yes to proceed.


3- Locate the Library folder in the OS X Finder or Windows Explorer. In
this example, we are selecting The Giant Library. Once selected,
click Choose to proceed.
4- At this point, KONTAKT will check the Library. If samples are
missing, a Samples Missing dialog will appear. In this dialog,
click Browse for folder.
5- In the Locate Folder window which now appears, select your
Library's Samples folder. Once selected, click Choose to proceed.

KONTAKT will now batch re-save the Library and re-link all the
Library's Instruments to their respective sample content. Your KONTAKT
Library's Instruments will now load correctly.
