(It did also ask me to add NTKDaemon but it looks like that is not required) So if…

Issue with Komplete Kontrol MK2 not being detected in MAC OS 27 developer beat 4
I know… risky business here. The thing is my midi controller was working fine up to maybe 2 days ago so I underwent already 4 beta updates and suddenly after installing a security update I notice now the keyboard is not being detected as a midi device by my macbook pro.

Idea: Standalone Metronome
(Posting here because again the forum won't give me any ability to post in the "post an idea" section cause the "category" drop down is blank.
