Default Instrument option unavailable in multichannel plug in?

I just began using pro tools this week. I'm trying to record using a midi keyboard. All online tutorials have told me to create an instrument track, then go to the insert slot and choose "instrument" under multi-channel plug ins. But the only options I have are EQ, Dynamics, Pitch Shift, Reverb, Delay, Harmonic, Dither, Soundfield, or Other. I've tried searching it within the inserts but nothing comes up. Why is there no instrument option?? I attached a screenshot of the plug-ins list. (Computer model macOS High Sierra Version 10.13.6 Pro tools version 2018.7.0 16 GB 2133 MHz DDR4 memory M-Audio Oxygen 25 midi keyboard, plugged into computer with usb cable)

Did you download the separate installers?

I think you may have loaded a mono instrument channel. Try loading a stereo one.
