Right -- I mentioned this issue on the list a few days ago. I agree that it's just incredibly bad behavior.

On the issue of blame -- no, Garritan is technically not to blame for this situation, but it is still their product, and there needs to be more of a "buck stops here" mentality. Native Instruments have been responsible for _so_ many screwups and delays and headaches that I really think it's time Garritan sever their relationship with them.

I understand at one point they were pursuing their own in-house player -- I don't know if this is still under development, but if it is, I hope they make it a priority.

Cheers,

That is ***NOT*** Gary's doing. It is NI's doing.
PLEASE do not blame Gary for this!!!

Several people have found a workaround for this; it's posted on the Garritan forum. If I didn't have to go practice, I'd find it for you.
But please don't blame Garritan for this.

Subject: [Finale] Full GPO and the KONTAKT2 Update


I just discovered that the GPO update to use the KONTAKT2 controls will
erase all of your KONTAKT(1) libraries and render the use of 2006 GPO
unusable.

This is highly irresponsible of Garritan, I believe. While I admire Gary's
product, this latest discovery saddens me.
