I’m back.

Some know and some don’t - Previously I had a moment or perhaps a crisis, if that’s alright to say? Lol

Stepped away for a few months from the Maschine and decided to mangle myself up to what’s been new, popular, and different. This included DAWs as well, and also utilizing the brand-new MPC Live 3 - Which was great but not for me.

With many things tried and tested, nothing really gave me an ounce of inspiration or even a workflow that made sense to me.

After all that time spent internalizing a debate and a solution, it was time to go back home. To a place that knew and understood me.

There’s something magical and wonderful about the Maschine workflow, integration, and the entire ecosystem it’s built on. With Logic as the backbone support, it’s been a breeze, welcoming, and just more awe-inspiring as to how many things that are out there and nothing comes close to what they’ve achieved here with the Maschine. IMO.

Anyone else feel this way? Or tried something else but something kept bringing them back to Maschine?

Resochord +

New Maschine+ owner here. I’m totally in love with the Resochord. Are there other similar expansions that expand the capabilities of the device and add more contour to the sounds? Something more experimental and dissonant.

Thanks you and have fun!

Mashine+ stuck on 'NO UPDATES HAVE BEEN FOUND' mode :(

Just bought a used Maschine+. The guy I bought it from transferred over the license, gave me a 256GB SD card, and a 3rd pary USB power cord. The first time I turned the maschine+ on, everything was fine. I was able to connect to the internet and play around. I step away for a few weeks, and now I am back. To my surprise, I get stuck 😞

I found this post on native instruments: https://community.native-instruments.com/discussion/4172/tips-what-to-do-if-maschine-plus-is-stuck-on-startup-screen

This suggests that I may have a hardware issue. Ok then. Where would I take my maschine+ to get it fixed? I have seen posts online about how the SD card or power supply could play a role. If so, what should I do, and is that still classified as a hardware issue? I sent in a ticket to Native Instruments and I am waiting to hear back.

Any help is greatly appreciated. When I figure out what works, I will post here. Since this seem to be a common issuse, I hope someone can find this post useful.

Just need the maschine 3 software on its own?

Hi there,

I recently bought a used maschine mikro mk3, but without the software. I tried NI support, but they said Id need to purchase the software seperately.

I accidentally bought maschine central thinking that was it (so I already have that). However, I don't seem to be able to buy the standalone maschine 3 software on the NI site?

The only options I see are to upgrade from maschine 2 (which I dont have), or to buy it with maschine central (which I already own). Does anyone know where to get the maschine 3 software on its own?

Is Maschine right for me?

Decided to get myself a present, kicking around the idea of picking up a MK3 or Mikro.

  • I'm new to the whole beat-making approach(?)
  • I want to use it as a sketchpad, then refine and build in my daw
  • I already have last year's Komplete Standard
  • Not really into sampling/chopping
  • If nothing else, I'd like to get one for finger drumming

Do y'all think this is a good fit, or am I better suited for a generic pad controller?

Some recorded hardware and arranged, mostly performed with Maschine+. Enjoy 😉

Thinking about upgrading from Maschine Studio to MK3. Outside of form factor, is there any reason to do so? The software runs the same on both

Just wondering if there’s something I’m missing about the MK3. I use Maschine 3 software on the Studio, and I don’t need portability, so are there some things on the mk3 that I don’t have on the studio?

Ride the rhythm…

There’s some recorded clips from hardware arranged in Logic, but the automation, and performance is through Maschine. Enjoy 😉

Maschine MK1 - Ableton Live 12

Greetings everyone, I am here to be a bit boring. I've tried to find the solution to my question everywhere on internet, reddit, github, youtube even got myself talking with AI how to do it myself and watching yt vids. But I had no success, is there someone who can tell me if this has been done by someone? Or if I am able(ton) do it my self if I put some time and research in it. Thank you so much!

Anyone using a Surface Pro with Maschine?

I don't like taking my studio laptop out of the house, so I decided to grab a cheap Surface Pro 7 Plus just for on the go use. Anyone have experiences they would like share? I know all the windows audio tweaks, but I'm curious how Maschine 2.0 vs 3.0 looks on a smaller screen. The hard drive is kinda small, so I don't want to install 2 different factory libraries.

How to Assign Sample Slices to Specific Pads While Keeping Existing Drum Pads?

Here with a Maschine MKIII. I have the first 4 pads loaded with drum sounds (kick, snare and hi-hats). I want to distribute the slices of a sample across the remaining 12 pads. How can I assign each slice to whichever pad I want? I haven’t been able to figure out the correct way to do it for days. Thanks in advance.

Maschine and MPC

Now that the acquisition has been announced, I’m curious about the direction this all goes. The new MPCs all have plenty enough power to run most NI VATs natively, but the workflow on maschine is what keeps us there. I’m curious if they try and make a new Maschine standalone that would end up directly competing with themselves. What do yall think?
