Hooking it up to your computer with a USB cable, the Maschine controller powers up with its lovely backlit LEDs. The controller is quite compact and has a sturdy, high quality feel to it, even though it is only partly metal. All set to go, let’s see what we have here!

After authorizing Maschine in the Service Center, I figured it was a good idea to download the latest update as well.
#NATIVE INSTRUMENTS MASCHINE GROOVE PRODUCTION STUDIO DRIVERS#
The installation of the drivers and Maschine software was a breeze it just takes a while to copy all the content from the DVD.

The installation disc was all the way in the bottom of the box, so I almost missed it. I am a long time Windows user though, so I know better than to just hook up anything USB without checking for drivers first. All I can think is “hook it up man, let’s get going!” I open the box and the first thing I see is this lovely control surface.

I generally don’t read manuals anyway, but Native Instruments doesn’t encourage me much either. So let’s take a looks at what this Maschine is all about! Where’s the installation disk? Utilizing onboard samples or your own audio files, MASCHINE’s symbiosis of hardware and software not only ensures a fast and fun workflow, but lets you easily turn your ideas into professional productions. MASCHINE combines the flexibility of computer-based music production with the ease of a groove box into one powerful creative tool. Native Instruments has recently introduced Maschine, a powerful combination of software and hardware, or as they put it, a complete Groove Production Studio. Where as in the past one would typically use a number of traditional instruments, synthesizers, drum machines, mixing panels, etc., software has opened the door for many home studio musicians to produce music on a budget.Īlthough you could easily get along using software exclusively, you may still want to use a controller when recording music, so you can actually “play it” instead of programming everything. Maschine 2.0 comes with over 8 GB of virtual instruments, samples and effects, giving you plenty to play around with at your next gig.Audio production software has come a long way. From creating groovy drumbeats, to arranging synth lines, triggering samples and adding effects, your musical options are virtually limitless with this outstanding piece of software.

Packed full of production power, the Maschine Studio by Native Instruments ships with the full-version of Maschine 2.0. A high-res 30 step jog wheel and numerous buttons allow you to scratch, change velocity, nudge notes and alter pitch according to taste. The unit features 16 high-quality multi-coloured illuminated pads with velocity and after touch, 8 display knobs and 2 high-res displays, allowing DJs and producers to create, adjust and receive instant feedback on the fly. With an integrated stand, creating music has never been this comfortable.įeaturing unprecedented physical control and instant visual feedback, the Maschine Studio allows you to focus completely on the music and not the technicalities. The Native Instruments Maschine Studio is an all-in-one music production controller that fully harnesses the features, sounds and capabilities of Machine 2.0 from a tactile interface.
