Massive X could not be loaded (in Komplete Kontrol/Abalton Lite on MacOS)

There was an error rendering this rich post.

Hi all,

I have installed Massive X and Massive X Factory Library on MacOS (I'm using KOMPLETE 15 ULTIMATE with a MK3 S88) but I'm not able to open it in Komplete Kontrol nor in Ableton Lite 12.

In KO I'm able to listen to the preview but when I click on the little arrow to load it a message appears "Massive X could not be loaded.". The same appears in Ableton.

I reinstalled Massive X and Massive X Factory Library and checked the folders. All files seem to be in place.

Whhat can I do to solve this issue?

Thank you

it seems it was caused by my Mac Pro. Unfortunately this Mac is now damaged. Massive X is running fine on my new Mac Mini.

…in addition the scan in KO shown twice the same issue for

Process: ScanApp3 [18494]
Path: /Library/Application Support/Native Instruments/*/ScanApp3.app/Contents/MacOS/ScanApp3

all other instruments etc. are available. Anything to do here as well?

Have you installed the VST3?

I can see the VTS3 file as well as VST, a file in Components folder, too.

I have in the meantime also did all steps as described in another question.

Please try to open Komplete Kontrol in standalone, can you load a Massive X preset?

Please make sure to give full disk access to Logic: xxx

Delete this file: Macintosh HD > Library > Audio > Plug-Ins > Components > Massive X.component

Apply these steps: xxx

Open Logic. Close Logic. Reinstall Massive X in Native Access.

(need to remove links as I'm not allowed to do this)

without success.

In Ableton I have only VST3 Plug-in system folder enabled. When I enablee Audio Units v2 Massive X appeared directly, but Ableton crashed when I drag it into a track.

Any other idea?

@The Piano Player What's your operating system? What version of Ableton 12 are you using exactly? there are issues with 12.1.5 You can read it here with the message from Ableton and installers for the previous version.

Hi Jeremy,

I'm using Ventura 13.7.2 and Ableton Live 12 Lite 12.5.1 . my errow message looks different.

As I thought there will be no further response here, I opened an isse: #4480725 .
