I almost always side chain from a dummy kick as this gives me the option of sidechaining even when the kick isn't playing. Also, if your kick is dynamic, a dummy kick will give you uniform ducking. The most common use of sidechain compression is ducking other elements to let the kick through. Try sl...

Make sure you are in the session view. Press control+m to open up midi map mode. On the right hand side under the scene launch buttons you should see some arrows, a play button and a stop button. Map these to your controller. Press control+m to leave midi map mode. You should now be able to scroll u...

I don't have komplete but usually when you run the installer you are prompted to select your vst folder and the installer will do the rest. I'd try a re-install and make sure you select the correct folders.
