Komplete Kontrol used a plugin on Logic X won't reopen Massive X.

There was an error rendering this rich post.

Hello NI Team,

When using logic X and Komplete Kontrol as a Plug-in, Massive won't reopen correctly, I'll be able to play the notes and hear the sounds with my m32 controller, but I'll no longer see the parameters move on the plug-in window.

This is very frustrating when I want to experiment with the parameters after recording the midi notes, or simply browsing sounds.. since if open up massive x as a plugin and not through Komplete Kontrol I won't be able to browse the sounds correctly with the m32 controller.

When I first open Massive X through Komplete Kontrol on Logic x everything works fine and the display is visible, but if I close the plug-in window then reopen I can no longer see the display. (this only seems to happen with massive x and not other instruments)

Please help me find a solution for this as its very annoying and is limiting my progress on certain projects.

I'm using an M1 Max MacBook Pro 64gb macOS Sonoma , and Komplete Kontrol version 3.3.2

Exactly the same problem I have too in my DAW. I use Logic Pro. Hopefully soon a solution will be found...

Same problem here. Very frustrating!

Also having this problem.
Today it annoyed me enough to look it up on the forum.
Can reproduce the issue consistently like described by Skimmy.
Using an M2 Max MacBook Pro 64 GB, Sonoma 14.5,
Logic Pro 11.1 (Apple Sillicon),
Massive X 1.11,
Komplete Kontrol 3.3.3

I wonder if NI is interested in solving this issue.
It's been a while since this bug was introduced. I know I can just use the plugin without KK, but it's just not a good look and KK offers some features that one may want to use with Massive X.

Small correction: I made a mistake with the Mssive X version number
Im using
Massive X 1.4.4
not Massive X 1.1.1

I can confirm this in Logic on Sequoia too - will make bug report

Thing is did anyone here actually report it to support as a bug? NI won't necessarily know it is bug without proper bug reports, a forum thread is not always going to get picked up on by NI (this is the first time I've seen it tbh myself, otherwise I'd have investigated sooner)

I have discovered a workaround that works for me, obviously not a solution but it enables Komplete Kontrol to be closed and reopened without Massive X going all black. If you have KK in browser view when you minimise the window it reopens and Massive X is still there. This only happened when in plugin view when the window is closed and reopened.

Anyway NI are aware of this now

Update in NA fixes this for me on Sequoia - can anyone confirm the fix on Sonoma?

Most NI HDPI FX still have this bug too though so also need the fix
