Maschine 3 stand alone sound cracks and graphic stutters, while as a VST in a DAW all is fine!?
I recently bought a Maschine MK3, it came with the Maschine 3 software. If Maschine 3 runs as a Windows app, I have frequent sound crackles (yes, I tuned the ASIO buffer) and also the graphics is not smooth, the playhead moves stuttery and dragging an instrument windows is also stuttery.

Looking for a list of Maschine plus add ons (effects, etc)
I’m having trouble finding a comprehensive list effects or add ons that are compatible with Maschine plus stand alone.

Can't find Kontakt Factory Selection 2 in Maschine Plus in 2.1.0 update
I had the impression that the new Maschine plus update not only gave us some play series instruments (yihaa!!) but also Kontakt Factory Selection 2. But It seems I still have the old Kontakt Factory Library and I can't find the new Factory Selection 2 sounds. Does anyone know how to get to these?
