Hi guys, I would like to buy this Native Instruments plugin (Lores and Ashlight). Do you think they can be installed on the Maschine 3 software?

    yes, they will work as plugins on Maschine 3. Once installed they will also be accessible from the Instruments tab on the browser.

    Lores and Ashlight are Kontakt libraries so they most likely require Kontakt Player to be installed to be opened in Maschine 3 , but as BJQ1972 writes then they can be opened in Maschine 3 :

    You’re better off using them directly in Kontakt or Komplete Kontrol as both libraries use a lot of aftertouch which Maschine doesn’t support

    yes, I managed to install Lores and Ashlight on Maschine 3, you can see the instrument image and the entire list of presets, but when I try to select a preset I only hear the preview but it doesn't let me load it.

    Have you double clicked, or dragged and dropped into a sound slot?

    and what does the screen show when you do it? Does it not open an instance of Kontakt with the preset loaded?

    If you open Kontakt or Kontakt player in standalone mode can you load the required sound?

    sure yes, when I open Kontakt directly everything works perfectly, but I thought that by opening Maschine 3 and loading the instruments in addition to seeing the preview and hearing the preset it could work via midi on the keyboard... and instead it doesn't work. Maybe it will be like this in the next firmware update??

    have you checked the midi settings in Preferences?

    If you just set the software to the piano roll and activate keys using the mouse does it not work? if you switch to keyboard mode, and play with you PC keyboard there is no sound?

    when I switch to PC keyboard mode (in Maschine 3) I only hear the preset sound but not when I press the virtual keyboard keys. Also When i connect the USB keyboard do not work, but whit other instruments yes

    you are going to have to explain exactly what you've done, what programs you have open with pictures if possible.

    To start replicate what is shown in the picture a few posts above - open the Lores A Good Opportunity Preset into sound slot 1.

    Yes but Maschine opens the Kontakt VST3 plugin to do that so do you have that installed and is it showing in Maschine’s plugin list?
