NI Komplete Kontrol SL 61 MK2 on Bitwig 4.4.8

[silverslik]

Hi!

I've been using Moss script with my performance session in Bitwig for years, everything was fantastic. Recently upgraded my MBP to the M1 Max version, everything was running lightning fast, alas a huge hindrance, Bitwig doesn't recognize the SL61 MK2.

In the past, with DrivenByMoss installed in Bitwig's extensions folder, the SL61 MK2 keyboard has always been auto-detected. Now, nothing happens. I can manually add the Komplete Kontrol S MK2 controller, and get the keys on the keyboard to input notes, but that's about it. Urgently need to get DrivenByMoss script to work again, any ideas? Many thanks in advance

As soon as I posted this, I had an idea, and tried it, and it solved the problem.

Thought I would share the solution here in case anyone else has similar experience.

I have 2 user profiles on my MBP. Since I wanted Bitwig presets, extensions etc. to be shared across the two user accounts, I located the Bitwig folder (usually located inside /Users/user name/Documents/Bitwig/) in /Users/Shared/Bitwig .

Then, in the regular /User/user name/ folder I place alias pointing to the corresponding folders inside /Users/Shared/ folder.

Apparently, this works just fine for the folders "Color Palettes", "Controller Scripts", "Library", "Projects", but not "Extensions".

As soon as I made a new non-alias folder in /Users/My_Own_User/Bitwig/Extensions/ and placed the script inside, everything seems to be working.
