It is laggy, slower to start, slower to shutdown, but the MOST unacceptable is it has been UNSTABLE for me with lock ups and crashes. I HATE Maschine 3 on the Plus, SOOOOO much. I want it gone from my system & Account,…

Just one little Midi Recording tweak, please!
As Maschine is very nice and quick for tapping in notes it’s well known that it lacks a bunch of modern sequencing features like probability, polymeters and midi fx. An obvious workaround would be to use an external sequencer but there is one Maschine behavior that makes this solution annoyingly tricky to use. Whenever I…

Maschine 3 Stuck in DEMO mode
II purchased a used Maschine MK3. I initially thought the Maschine 3 update would be enough (was told so) to run my MK3. Obviously I was wrong. Didn’t work; stuck in DEMO mode and later learned why. There was no license transfer from the previous owner. I then purchased the Maschine 3 including Maschine Central (full…

MIDI from Maschine + into Logic Pro recording issue
I bought the Maschine + a year ago and had a few head-achy weeks grappling with how it works - I am a Logic Pro user of over 20 years and I was told by a sales rep the Maschine system would be easy for me - it wasn't - my conclusion was it was overly complicated and illogical - so I put it to one side. Recently I installed…

This doesn't happen when using the buttons on the device, or when using the footswitch to start and stop playback when not in Sampling mode. It used to work…

Does anyone have any tips or best practices for managing Projects and Groups within the Maschine+ standalone?
