Maschine MK3 3.0 - No Sound with Third-Party Plugins (Addictive Drums 2, Arturia, etc.

Hi,
I’m currently working with a Maschine MK3 running version 3.0. The standalone Maschine software seems to be working fine, but I’m facing an issue when trying to load any third-party plugins. Specifically, when I load plugins like Addictive Drums 2 (AD2), no sound is produced. I’ve noticed the same issue with other plugins as well, including Arturia and others.

Has anyone else experienced this problem? Am I missing something in the setup, or is this a known issue with Maschine 3.0?

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
AJ

    That's weird! No, but ever since my display drivers updated in AMD Adrenaline, Maschine 3 SW has had problems displaying the windows for external plugins. I've been thinking the problem is that Maschine 3 is having trouble outputting the translated video codex via a parity issue, could that be the same problem on the audio codex side?

    How was it working before? Have you done a driver update on your audio card recently?

    No, this is my first time using Maschine, so I'm still learning. Everything seems to be working fine except for the plugins. I suspect I might be missing something in the setup, but I just can't seem to figure out what it is

    Go to the file menu, then press File/Preferences/Audio and make sure your audio settings are correct. Then from the Preferences menu, go to Plugins/Locations, make sure they are scanning your VST folders.

    Next, are you able to open the VSTs in Maschine?
