I've got a Maschine MK3, and software version 2.18.4. K7 is I believe version 7.10.6.

My problem is I can't get Maschine to load K7 sounds from the library. In standalone, K7 works fine, loads the factory library, Ashlight, Noire etc etc. but inside Maschine (standalone) I just get the error "[Sound] couldn't be loaded". The weird part is that if I insert K7 as a plugin, it loads fine - and loads those sounds as well. But I don't want to do that, since that defeats the purpose of using the MK3 hardware.

I used to have Kontakt 6.6 and I thought Maschine might have been trying to load that, but I deleted the plugin and rescanned, it still does it. I've also tapped the "use latest NI plugins" check box inside Maschine.

I used to get the "couldn't be loaded" error with all my 3rd party plugins, until I realized that you have to have VST/VST3, not AU. But K7 should be a VST(3).

Any suggestions?

Anyone? It’s really bugging me

The plugin (VST3) should be fine, since it opens. It’s just the loading of a patch from the Library that doesn’t work (I need this, to load them from the hardware). This applies to all sounds / libs that use Kontakt, none load.

I tried deleting Maschine’s database (MacOS) and rescanning everything - didn’t help.
