Soundiron Quadral 3 Stops After a While and Asks for a Kontakt Serial Number in Logic Pro
19 October 2026
Client’s Question
Soundiron Quadral 3 plays fine in Kontakt in Logic Pro, then after a while it stops, says Quadral doesn’t support Kontakt and asks for a serial number. I can’t find a serial anywhere in Native Access or my Native Instruments account. What’s wrong?
Session Result
Quadral 3 is an open-format library and was loaded in the free Kontakt Player. Imported as a custom library in full Kontakt 7, with Axe Machina and David Oliver’s Drum Kit kept in Kontakt 8.

2 June 2026
Client’s Question
I’ve retired and want to record polished vocals over backing tracks with my Apollo, Neumann TLM 103 and Logic Pro, but my recordings sound poor and I can’t get the vocal and backing track to sit right. Can you set it up so I can just sing?
Session Result
We started a fresh Logic project, cleared the plugins in Console and set the gain by hand. Punch recording was stopping Logic from recording; with it off, he was happy with his vocal over the backing tracks.
