I am trying to set up Komplete 15 in Ableton Live 12 on a Mac. Tried to follow the Native Instruments docs (https://support.native-instruments.com/hc/en-us/articles/209593529-Plug-In-Administration-in-Ableton-Live), but it is not helping.
AFAIK, I want to install Kontakt 8 etc. as VST3 plugins. The plugins folder should already be in a standard location, so I should not have to specify any custom folders. Assuming this, here are my plugin settings in Ableton Live – I have turned on "Use VST3 Plug-In System Folders:
When I do this, I get the following list of plugins in the browser, but when I expand any item, there is nothing below it (I assume instruments should start showing here):
Also I don't see any NI instruments in the instruments browser:
What am I missing? Please help.
P.S. I even tried to specify a custom folder, but it is confusing where the custom folder location should be: a) /Users/Shared, or b) /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST3
