Somewhere down the line , maybe after some update of Korg Gadgets or Komplete Kontrol and Maschine (Native Instruments), I have lost the presets / previews and the images in KK and Maschine of the Gadgets. When I use the VST 's in KK , the knobs do still what they are supposed to do. I am on MacOS mojave 10.14

Anyone else has this problem ?
I did a support request, but did not get an answer.

If you go to Preferences > Library in MAS or KK software are the individual Gadget libraries still listed? [ If they are you could try a rescan on one of them to see if it updates ]

The gadgets are there under "plugins". I cannot see any references to them in the "library" tab. Can you add them in some way ?

I already tried a rescan with no luck.

Edit:
I now did a new full install of Gadgets on one of my Macs. No difference.
I am now doing a rescan in KK after that install. Still busy :-)

Interesting. Just noticed I have the same issue. The Korg's are now missing from my MAS Browser. Must be an issue with the latest MAS/KK updates.

Thanks for confirming I am not the only one. I could not find any reference to this problem so far.
The re-rescan did not help either.

I was looking at those Korg gadget vsts, how do they compare to the Korg analog/ digital collection vsts?
INTERFACE: RME ADI-2/4 Pro/Antelope Orion Studio Synergy Core/BAE 1073 MPF Dual/Heritage Audio Successor+SYMPH EQ
SYNTHS: Korg Kronos X 88/Yamaha Montage M8x/Sequential Trigon 6/
Behringer DM12D/Pro-800

Gadget Sound engine is just as good or better than Collection plugins. all collection plugins are included in a "gadgetized" form, that is same sound quality or better, but trimmed down interfwce. Besides that, Gadget collection has more plugins and it includes nice stuff such as Tokyo virtual Analog drum synth. Interface has almost a proper size, unlike Korg Collection.

The drawback is that all plugins are limited in scope. The tweaking / modulation possibilities are much, much shorter.

EDIT: if we're talking bang for the buck, Gadget offers much more for your money.

Definitely something odd going on. The NKS libraries do not appear (and in Prefs > Library) after a complete uninstall/reinstall. Will report the issue to NI.

Thanks. I will keep you informed when I might get some answer from Korg support.

I received an email from Korg app User Community. The advice is re-installation of Gadgets. Obviously this is not going to help, since we already tried this.

Have you updated either Balinese Gamelan and The Canterbury Suitcase recently? - if so it may be this issue:

Reported to NI, it's on their radar.

Hello everyone,

I have checked back with my colleagues in the development and was able to confirm this issue.
My colleagues are aware of it and look for a solution.

I will keep you updated once there is more news.
