Audio Hardware Setup! Now it's there, now it's not!

I haven’t done the “delete” yet for fear of more damage. I did update the “Tools For MR” to the latest version and sure enough, I at least now have “audio hardware setup” available from the “studio” drop down. The problem is now I do not have the “hardware” showing in the mix console, and subsequently can’t use reverb while tracking, which is a major issue.

I can load a previous project that did have the hardware in the mix console, it’s still there and I can still use reverb on input channel. When I load a new project now, as stated, I do have the drop down hardware setup available, but even when I launch it, and select “cue 1”, for example,… then select reverb for cue 1, I still cannot get the reverb to work.

Any clues at all? This is maddening for sure. Is there a way to get the “hardware” to show up over the input channels in the mix console?
