I started a new project, loaded different K instruments and its working.  Looking at both projects I cant see any differences... maybe its a bug.

Alright guys. Hope this helps. Please try my presets. Hope it works in your setup.

1.Download and Unrar this rar file.

You should get 3 files.

2. Move "16 channel Output.cfg" to C:\Users\Jasper Roy\AppData\Local\Native Instruments\Kontakt 5\default\Output Section Presets

3. The other 2 files are Sonar synth track template I have created with 8 & 16 audio and midi tracks. All set up and routed properly.

4. Move the 2 files to where Sonar stores them and load any one of them.
    OR Just drag them Inside sonar track view from anywhere.(Dont drag both at the same time)

5. The template will get loaded and now you should be able to open Kontakt from the loaded template tracks. Open Kontakt.

6. In Kontakt's output window(mixer) Select "16 channel Output" (the output preset you moved in step 2) from the
preset/ configuration drop down list. Set it as default(if req)

Done.

now everytime you need to use kontakt just load the track template. Within few sec you are ready to go on and load upto 16instruments in 1 instance of kontakt. There wont be anything to worry abt.  If you have 16 fav instuments in kontakt you use often, Just load them all and select all the tracks and save it as your favorite track template, You could just load this in your next project and ready to record everything in mins. You can later delete the ununsed tracks anytime. Its easy to delete.

Well its the awesomeness of Track templates. Cant live without it once get to know how powerful it is. Have to do one more step though, after loading the instruments set which channel the instruments outputs to.

Like this.


Do let me know it if all loads like this in your pc. subtlearts were you able to load the templates

Hey 200bpm - Im sorry you had trouble - but happy it worked for you! - I have noticed upon the rare occasion where a sample based instruments sort of "Lose Their Grip" in sonar and I don't have output.  While rare - on my system, I just reboot sonar.  On very few occasions I have just created a new session as you did.  I think - less than 5 in my whole decade of sonar.
