Yep, just in myself. Works fine.

I was able to use the New Native Access to update the Scarbee Funk Guitarist & Pre-Bass libraries. It appears to have installed the content to the location I had set in preferences.
The only other thing I have yet to update is Kontakt 5.5.2. I am Really struggling with this one as everything I have works perfectly fine with 5.5.2 and I just don't see what I have to gain from updating to 5.6.1 except loss of function.
Is there something I'm missing here, other than just keeping current, by not updating Kontakt?

Native Access does seem to be a potential improvement over Service Center, although it's barely out of beta and is not as full-featured as its predecessor.
You cannot, for example, update third-party libraries, and even some NI products are not yet supported.
There is still no offline option, so you must have your DAW connected to the internet. That can be a problem, because you cannot just disable and re-enable your NIC as needed without screwing up many products' authorizations. NA will not run on XP, so XP users (yes, there are many) have to continue using SC (and it's currently broken).
Service Center also provided a link to release notes, which Native Access has yet to implement. I liked the fact that NI bucked the general trend of hiding release notes as so many other vendors do. But there does not seem to be any publicly-accessible change log for NA, so we have no idea what this update is for. Maybe it's OCD, but I like to know that stuff.
 All else is in doubt, so this is the truth I cling to. My Stuff

I agree that both seem to be required at this point in time. Hopefully, NA will eventually offer the best of both worlds!
For some damn reason I keep feeling like I should update Kontakt 5.5.2 to 5.6.1 but my gut says wait. I think I know what I'm going to lose but not sure what I may gain that would justify the loss...

Just looks crisper. That's primarily it for me.

I may want to add that there is no option to keep the downloaded installer packages, either (and I wonder if they would even work for rollback as many of them seem small and thus incremental)

Don't update yet if it works. i had some troubles when opening an old project just yesterday which got Sonar stuck with a loud high pitched tone and had me kill Sonar. Didn't have time yet to check whether this is also the case with K 5.6.1 ... but thinking about rolling back to 5.5.x if the upgrade shows the same issue

NI, like Microsoft, doesn't like footdraggers! They will eventually find a way to coerce an update. In the past, for example, they've released fixes to the factory library that were incompatible with versions only one dot-rev removed. Resistance is futile.
FWIW, 5.6.1 isn't giving me any trouble here. But then I have no old projects.

upgraded to K 5.6.1 and it did not give any troubles when tested on that one particular project. so I'll stick to it for the time being ...

Just installed Native Access at the Desk. Opened it to set the preferences and realized that I can only set one Content Location.
What do people do that have Multiple sample drives with Kontakt libraries installed on different drives? Read the NI FAQ and it says that you just need to get a larger single sample drive... It also said that Native Access is only for Komplete 10-11 users currently...
Looks like it's time for a call to NI (we'll see how that works out)
