Heya folks,
I'm going to try and explain this problem to the best of my ability since I haven't been able to find it anywhere else online:
To preface, I run my KOMPLETE S88 through ableton via komplete kontrol for live gigs and such. I've been doing this for a while on windows, which was working totally without issue, but upgraded to a refurbished mac about 6 or so months ago since my PC is getting to that point.
Since moving over to mac I have been having issues getting the hardware to integrate properly. Hitting certain buttons on the s88, such as instance selection (even when software is not running) is causing the dictation function within the mac to activate. when software is running, this also happens with the plgugin and browser buttons, as well as any parameter knobs that change eq amounts and whatnot. I ran soundsource just to be certain that it wasn't a problem with the mac and it is indeed coming from NIHostIntegration. I've updated Komplete to no avail and the hardware is completely updated on the s88 by all accounts, so I honestly have no clue what the next step would be. I do have to connect to the new usbc hubs that mac sports with an adapter, and i thought that was the problem but I'm having the same issues with multiple brands of adapter, so i figured that wasn't the cause.
On top of this, sometimes the the browse, plugin and mixer buttons completely deactivate themselves after exiting out of the window view, and Komplete Kontrol has trouble recognizing Native plugins.
Debating sending the mac back at this point since nothing is really working and it's affecting the way i play during gigs, but wanted to see if there might be any other possible solution since it would put me out of commission for a few weeks.
Appreciate any help or advice at all, thanks everybody!
