You probably need to re-initialize the Maschine DB. (step 3 in the link below)

My MASCHINE 2 Browser is Empty or Incomplete – Native Instruments (native-instruments.com)

There may be some duplicates if you have the Maschine Factory Selection "AND" the full Maschine Library installed library...which is normal, but there are not a ton of them.

Thanks I’ll give that a go

Some libraries can be redundant.

Maschine Factory Selection is a smaller version of the normal Maschine library, so if you have both uninstall it.

Same goes for Kontakt Factory Selection if you have the full one.

Hi. Have the same issue with almost every preset in different plugins: maschine factory library, expansions, massive presets, reaktor presets, etc. Already used the methods above (deleting .db3) and checked for all duplicates on Mac. Nothing happened, still finding dublicates while scanning DB. The only difference is that some presets are opening via "Find in finder" in Maschine browser, while others not. Still both can be loaded as the same preset (only sometimes some sounds can't be preheared while choosing them in browser). Could anyone help to solve this problems? Wanna orginise and use mk3 properly without scrolling through all the duplicates...

Please, anyone

MGH

so where is the resolution to this problem? The request is well stated and I have the same problem. Seems two files with the same name should not show up in the menu of choices ,or anywhere within the system really…

To know which redundant stuff you have installed simply right click the 1st and the dupe and select "Find in Finder/Explorer", the path names will tell you the library names.
