I updated to 3.5.0 hoping the hanging issue with 3.41 would be resolved; it is not.

My KK hangs on Wave Shell (at the very end of all my plugin scans) and will not open. It is unusable at this point. 😝

    What version of Waves are you running?

    Do you have lots of Waves plugins? When Komplete Kontrol scan Waves Shell, the latter will then pass all Waves plugins one by one to the NI plugin scanner for scanning. However, it will not display the Waves plugin names—just the Waves Shell name—so it may appear that it hangs.

    You have to understand Waves plugin architecture; most of their plugins are coded like modules with Wave Shells being the wrapper or module loader and execution.

    As such, if you have lots of Waves plugins, just be patient and wait for the plugin scan to complete. Do note that there are usually more than one Waves Shells, so after scanning one Waves Shell, it will then do the next. After Komplete Kontrol complete plugin scanning, it will not scan again until the next Waves updates on Waves Shells.
