Be sure you have Massive X updated (if I recall correctly it wasn’t supporting AAX before but only AVX).

If it’s the case and you installed it in your plugins folder, it should appear in ProTools.

If you have some other type of problems, take a look at this discussion:

I'm sorry for not giving all the information. I can't find the aax plugin for FM8.

Ok, so please do the following:

Make sure to give Full Disk Access to Native Access and ProTools: How to Enable Full Disk Access on macOS then:

Delete the AAX plug-in at this location: Mac HD > Library > Application Support > Avid > Audio > Plug-Ins
Open Pro Tools / Close Pro Tools
Reinstall FM8 with Native Access.
Open Pro Tools again
