Default reaper makes kontakt hang

hi - i'm trying to figure out what would cause a hang in kontakt when loading some orchestral libraries <LASS multis>.

i can load the libraries in kontakt standalone and i even opened sibelius and loaded up kontakt and loaded the lass multis just fine.

lass individuals sections load up fine in reaper.

what happens is it just hangs forever - doesnt show any progress.

any ideas?

is kontakt windows pinned and are you loading multis or editing current patch?

because if kontakt asks you something like: do you want to replace current multi/save changes the message is hidden behind the plugin windows if it is pinned

:surprise:

So if I pin a window then any "sub-windows" that it creates are hidden beneath it?

Probably depends on the system/plug-in, last time I tried that after reading a report about it I couldn't reproduce (with Battery).

I also discovered this as I use Reaper to host LASS 2 and multiple Instrument Banks.
I tried undoing the GUIs of Scope in the task bar and when that didn't work I knew by checking the various windows there was an unawered question somehwere.
Small inconvenience, but LASS 2.0 was an upgrade to LASS Lite. I wanted NCW Instruments only, and from where I stand Kontakt rules sample playback hands down.
Reaper FWIW is as stable as a host as Bidule, and I can run extremely low latencies like .07msec, @96k, 64 samples, and 50 ASIO channels.
But I usually prefer 48k for LASS and other Kontakt stuff, @2.9 ASIO Duplexed for live work, and is stable as the sunrise.

Life is great when this virtual crap actually works....

if it happens you dont have to quit reaper itself via task manager - you can just close (with task manager ofc) the dialogue, unpin plugin, and try again

Thanks, that's a bit better at least.
But this behaviour should be fixed nonetheless of course.
