Native Instruments Komplete 3 Help

[dunnryte]

I'm running Pro Tools 7.4 on a Mac Pro with an Intel Dual 2.66 Xeon processor, and after installing and activating Komplete 3 from Native Instruments, I find that the plugins aren't showing up in my instruments window. The interesting thing is that it's showing the plugins are there in the loading screen of Pro Tools. Can anyone give me a little help on this issue? Thanks!

in the prefs>display>organize plug-ins menu by>category and manufactuer
when loading an ni plug scroll to bottm,click on ni plugs,see if they show up.
also do you have all of ni's current updates?

I tried listing the plugins and none of the Native Instruments plugins show up, NI doesn't even show at all, but it's weird because while it's loading Pro Tools it shows it trying to load the plugins. Any other ideas on what I can do? Oh, and I do have the updates as well. Thanks


Actually, the problem has been solved. Most of the plugins in the Komplete 3 bundle are incompatible with the Intel Macs so in order for them to show up and work, I'd have to upgrade to the plugins in Komplete 5. They didn't issue updates for all the older plugins, but the B4II and Guitar Rig 2 showed up as soon as the updates were installed.

Thanks everyone for their help!

Did you read my post? Your answer is there.

Thanks for the help, but I wasn't trying to put the plugins on the MIDI track, I was speaking of the instruments section using the insert, I didn't originally have my plugins organized by maker, I had them arranged by type. I apologize for not specifying that part. Thank you again so much for your willingness to answer.

They will not be in your instruments section until you add/activate it through the insert section.

Create an instrument track, and then add the plug through the insert section (like adding a compressor), they will be listed at the bottom under instruments. Although I'm not at my mac right now but it should be right.

The only thing you use the instrument section for is midi channel distribution
