Can no longer use custom thumbnails for your custom Maschine kits!

In Maschine 3 it's not possible for me to change the vendor , in Maschine 2 everything working flawlessly.

I have made a workaround till it gets fixed by Ni.

Copy your Maschine 2 lib. Files into the folder of Maschine 3.

I don't remember the name for the files but that works .

I hope this issue gets fixed soon

Ok, another try. I deleted the Maschine 3 preferences folder

/Users/<user>/Library/Application Support/Native Instruments/Maschine 3

and had Maschine 3 rebuild its library database from scratch.

Now, when I add a User Library, I do not get Vendor / Product with image in the Browser:

Instead, the imported library Analogue Microcosm by Twisted Tools this shown under Other:

The samples reside under

/Users/Shared/Library/Twisted Tools/Analogue Microcosm/<sub-folder>/<sample>.wav

and are all tagged with Vender "Twisted Tools".

The image resides under:

/Users/Shared/NI Resources/image/twisted tools/analogue microcosm/VB_artwork.png

Moving it to

/Users/Shared/NI Resources/image/analogue microcosm/VB_artwork.png

does not have any effect.

Searching the komplete.db3 database with sqlite3, I get the following interesting difference for the same imported sample:

Maschine 2

So, my Maschine 3.1.1 installation writes a different value as "brand" (Vendor).

I wonder why it obviously works for @Kymeia.

I think now I know why it works for him , he is on Mac .

Are you on windows?

I‘m working on macOS and observed this issue with macOS 14 and 15.

As I have observed this same issue on the Maschine+ (which is still on Maschine 2 software) for several years now, I would assume it’s some kind of internal setting.

@Kymeia FYI, I did bug reports on both of these issues, but there was very little to no engagement.

That's what I'm talking about , can you make a big report please ?

Maybe NI can help us with an update!

That would be awesome 👍
