Is Massive X XL worth trying, or just a minor update?
I've been using Massive X for a while, and it actually covers quite a lot of my needs in different areas. I'm curious about Massive XL, though. For those who've tried both, does Massive XL bring enough new things to the table to make it worth exploring, or is it mostly a collection of improvements and extra features rather…

What a mistake. after good installs i opened trusty Maschine 3 (Is this meant to be a DAW?) and as soon as i opened massive x i was greeted with ERROR massive x could not be loaded the demos would…

Are presets limiting creativity, or are we using them wrong?
I've seen this debate come up quite a few times, and I think there's more to it than simply saying that designing sounds from scratch makes you more creative. A preset is just a starting point. You can spend hours tweaking oscillators, filters and modulation to create a patch from scratch, only to find it doesn't work in…

is the traktor s4 controllers dead ?
I have a Traktor S4 MK3 that is now seven years old. It has been used every week for the past seven years and is starting to show signs of wear and tear, with a few things beginning to play up. I'd like to buy a new one, but I can't seem to find anywhere that still sells them, not even on the Native Instruments website.…

Solutions to allow people to freely leave Microsoft.
Hello everyone! I'm new here and I'm not looking for controversy. I'm simply a dedicated Komplete 15 collectors edition user and I'm a bit disappointed to still have to use Windows or buy a Mac when Microsoft's practices are forcing more and more users to migrate, and when cross-platform alternatives exist. I'm not even…

215th Linux discusion: Business side
Dear Native Instruments, I love your products—but I'm stuck. Supporting only Windows (and macOS) is forcing users like me into tough budget decisions. Here’s why Linux support is not just a technical request—it’s a smart business move: Windows 10 support ends in October 2025, and Windows 11 drops support for many older yet…

Windows 11 and Ozone 11 problem
For example, when I load Ozone 11 as an insert in the mix bus in Nuendo 13 and activate the wizard (at the top, the coloured ring with the two white dots), and once it’s finished, the DAW freezes. I don’t know if this only happens in Nuendo or in other DAWs as well. We only recently switched from Windows 10 to 11. We never…

What’s going on with the NI support team lately?
What’s going on with NI support lately? Do you think letting some of the old staff go has affected things? I’m definitely not the only one having issues with their systems, and honestly I’m starting to get worried about my account and my products. Then you contact support and all you get is “someone will get back to you…

the Native Instruments portal doesn’t show my shimmer shake license even though I have it and have used it before on my older Intel Mac. When I go to enter the serial number in native access it says “already registered” but never shows up in my library. I have tried “show legacy products”, deleting the .xml files,…
