Maschine makes beat creation and arrangement quicker and more hands-on than ever before. The inspirational workflow of a drum machine with the power and versatility of software fully integrated into a computer-based groove production studio. Maschine combines an advanced software sequencer and sampler with a seamlessly integrated, highly functional performance controller. Finally merging a fast and intuitive groove-box workflow with the power and versatility of software, Maschine enables an inspiring and spontaneous creative approach for today’s computer-based music production setups. Native Instruments Maschine Features Intuitive sequencer, sampler with over 20 high-quality effects Real-time control and flexible routing Dedicated controller with 16 pads, 41 buttons, and 11 rotary encoders Play, record, sequence, automate and arrange Fastest workflow with pattern-based arrangement Features step sequencing, real-time recording and auto-mapping Over 5 GB of inspiring, studio-quality sounds Over 15,000 samples and hundreds of patterns Extensive MIDI-mapping capabilities to control other hardware and software Easy-to-use browser with tagging of kits, instruments, samples, and effects Intuitive automation recording and step automation editing Sampling from external and internal sources with threshold detection Works as a plug-in for any software sequencer supporting VST, AU or RTAS Maschine is built on an intelligent combination of timeless groove box and drum machine workflows, systematically refined and expanded to take advantage of the best aspects of computer technology. It brings together flexible step sequencing and real-time polyphonic recording in a forward-thinking pattern-based arrangement concept that makes it easy to jam out ideas, and turn them into full-blown songs in a way that is efficient, effortless and fun. Maschine was designed to accommodate and facilitate inspiration at any point in the creative process, from spontaneous beat creation to sophisticated multi-timbral arranging. Maschine Controller The advanced Maschine controller was designed as a natural extension of the software, and makes the system feel and respond as a true instrument. The 16 pressure-sensitive drum pads have been carefully engineered for the best possible response and durability, and they illuminate to visualize sequence patterns and other crucial information. Eight rotary encoders, a concise layout of dedicated buttons and dual high-resolution displays give immediate access to all functions of Maschine without touching the computer mouse or keyboard. By design, all features are quickly accessible on the surface rather than hidden away in hierarchical sub menus. The Maschine hardware also doubles as a powerful universal controller for any MIDI compatible music gear, thanks to an included MIDI mapping application and support of the MCU protocol for sophisticated DAW control. Versatile Sampling and Looping Based on a powerful high-resolution sample engine, Maschine is a versatile instrument that renders intricate drum kits and percussion, loops and multi-sampled polyphonic instruments with uncompromising sonic accuracy, assisted by automatic sample mapping, beat slicing, note repeat and more. The advanced real-time audio recording and resampling features in Maschine also allow producers and performers to capture, map, sculpt and transform any external or internal signal immediately, and seamlessly integrate the result into a running track without ever breaking the flow of the music. Multiple performance effects sections on the sample, group and master level provide a versatile arsenal of 20 high-quality algorithms ranging from conventional to experimental, all optimized for profound sound shaping and creat Minimize
