Selecting Arturia FX in Maschine 3.6.0 from Kontrol S mk3 replaces first slot

ini4

I've run into a weird bug. Inside of Maschine 3.6.0, if I use the Kontrol S mk3 to replace an effect plugin in any slot in the chain with an Arturia effect, it replaces the first slot (which is usually an instrument). Effect plugins by other manufacturers work fine. For example I could have effect slot 3 of a sound highlighted and choose an effect from Waves and it will load fine, but when I go back and choose an Arturia effect, it replaces the first slot with the Arturia effect. The same thing happens when selecting Add. However everything works fine on the Maschine Mk3 controller.

Hey thanks everyone, I can also reproduce the issue, forwarding this to the Maschine team.

have you tried resetting the kk database

I tried rescanning the plugins, but that didn't work. I also tried deleting the komplete.db3 file, but that didn't work either.

@ini4 Which Arturia effects exactly? Can you name a few that exhibit that issue so we can try a repro? and also, is this happening in a DAW, in Komplete Kontrol in standalone?

Could you post a video, I have tried a few and so far can't replicate but maybe my process is different?

This seems to happen with any of the Arturia effects for me. Even if the plugin is already loaded in an effect slot and I have it selected on the Kontrol S mk3, when I click the Next button to load the next preset, it replaces the first slot. Here are two examples:

@Jeremy_NI , just to be clear, this does not happen in Komplete Kontrol software. This only happens in Maschine 3.6 when using the Kontrol S mk3. Using the Maschine controller is fine. It's not a big deal since I can use the Maschine controller, but it is a weird bug.

OK thanks - I can replicate this now - I'll report it internally

I thought a complete rescan of plugins might fix it but it didn't

OK, for a second, I thought I was the only one. Here is another crazy scenario: try adding an Arturia effect plugin to the Group effects chain. It replaces the first slot of the first instrument/pad.

Yeah , I’ve had that happen too , I’ve reported in the beta ,v 3.5 , not sure if it was fixed , and it’s come back in 3.6 , because I didn’t get round to testing 3.6 due to the hot weather
