Host Automation in Choir Omnia Essentials doesn't appear in Ableton Live
Hi, I would be grateful if anyone could help with this. I have just bought Choir Omnia Essentials. When I am using it from Ableton Live 12 I can't see any host automation parameters other than Device On. (Ableton's "Show all parameters" option is on.) With other Kontakt instruments I can often immediately see the full list…
Why is komplete kontrol mk1 series not supported anymore and does not work with Ableton live 12?!
Hi Native, I recently found out that Ableton Live 12 is not supporting the komplete kontrol S49 MK1 anymore. Of course Ableton has a role in this too. My question is how is it possible that a product I bought 9 years ago is now useless in my setup. I am forced to buy a new Komplete kontroller now which I think is not very…
So... does Komplete Kontrol mk1 just not work with Ableton 12/11?
I just got an mk1 second hand and upgraded to Ableton 12. When installing the MIDI remote scripts Ableton tells me that the scripts don't support Live 12. I know that NI has disontinued support for mk1… does that mean it's just a paperweight for Live 12 beyond the basic keyboard midi functionality? Even in Live 11 I could…

Komplete Kontrol 3.3.3 Crashing Ableton Live 12.1.1 Projects on Launch
Recently ran into an issue where having an instance of Komplete Kontrol 3.3.3 on any Ableton Live 12.1.1 track causes the project to crash at load (screenshot at end of post). I've seen some other older posts about KK crashing, but they're either (a) closed (example) or (b) aren't the same behavior I'm seeing. I can load…

How to use Kontakt player with small Midi keyboard? // Key switches / Pattern scales
Hey there, new to this community, first time I actually bought a sample library (Ireland spotlight collection) and LOVING it. Sooo much better than anything free out there….:) Anyways. I´d say I´m a "Hobbyist-couch-laptop-performer" right now and I only have a small launchkey 25, so the setup with the key switches is both…
Mapping knobs of KKM32 to Ableton Live stock devices'
I just bought a KKM32 and it works perfectly fine The knobs only control the track volume (and panning with shift), really useful but I wish I could map them to Ableton Live stock devices' knobs; I swear I've seen a video of that being possible, but it might have been a different NI keyboard? Let me know how I could do that
Maschine plus and Ableton clock
Good day, I recently bought a Maschine Plus hardware and I have read the manual. What is the best and easiest way to sync clock the Maschine+ as a stand alone with Ableton. Is there a USB possibility or only via midi cable through my external audio interface to Maschine+ ? Thanks for your time, George Stergiou
VST's slow load up times
Just bought into the NI eco system with Komplete Kontrol Mk3 49 and Ultimate. I didn't install everything of course but still a tb. SO the new SSD drive pictured below is my E drive.

Ableton Live 12.1 Controller Remote Scripts update
We need new controller Scripts for Ableton Live 12.1 for Maschine Studio, Jam, Mk2, Mikro Mk2!!!!! All controllers. Would be great if NI could update their scripts and even add some more screen integration. I think that would sell much more devices if the Ableton live integration was deeper on the KK keyboards similar the…
Struggling with Komplete Audio 6 Mk2 on Mac Mini M4 and Ableton Live
I recently got a Mac Mini M4 and have been having a nightmare trying to get my Komplete Audio 6 Mk2 to work with Ableton Live. The OS recognizes the card and everything seems fine until I try to use it with professional audio software. Ableton Live sees the card, but when I select it as the input and output, I get a…

How to use expansions?
I picked up a couple of massive X expansions, installed them. I see them in the right folders, everything seems ok. However when I load Massive X as a plugin in Ableton, it has nothing but Init - Massive X, Init - Massive X Blank, QSG-01 Modulation, QSG-02 Effects, QSG-03 Control and that's it. I've hit the scan button,…
Midi setup for Maschine 2 in Ableton Live 11
Hi, I have an issue with Maschine 2 in Ableton Live 11; I can play the sounds of a Maschine drum kit, but I cannot record midi in Ableton Live. I can record midi events from a Maschine drum kit with my Komplete S61 keyboard. So I guess my midi setup of Maschine in Live is wrong or something is missing.

Firmware 1.8.7 with bugs?
I loaded the new firmware today. The DAW button on the Kontrol S88 Mk3 is now inactive and it is no longer possible to control the DAW (Ableton12: change tracks, mixer, mute, etc.). Switching from MIDI 1.0 to 2.0 and even a factory reset did not help. I therefore assume that there is an error or that something has…

Is there a reason 'Maschine Central' doesn't qualify for voucher usage?
I have the £49 voucher that was given after the Sample Modelling hiccup. Decided to use it for 'Central', but it won't allow me to do so. Contacting support via chat gets me locked in an infinite loop with the bot, that insists the product is not vaid. However, i still can't see from the exclusions why this product is a no…

Hello. I'm trying to open some Komplete Kontrol instruments I used with a computer that had KK 3.2.1 Right now I'm working with a computer that has KK 3.1.2 and it loads all that instruments with an empty Komplete Kontrol instance. Aren't these two close versions really not compatible? thank you
