Hi all,
Would greatly appreciate input on a problem with a Maschine mk3 which seems not to be unique, but I cannot resolve it with the fixes listed here or on other forums:
I recently bought a second hand Maschine mk3 and installed the Maschine software. However, when I start the Maschine it does not go past the display 'Production and Performance System' and therefore is not recognized by the Maschine software. Sometimes the leds of the Maschine will be back lit, sometimes they won't. I have tried it on a different laptop with a powered USB bus and then it does connect with the software. However, my main workstation is a Windows 11 desktop with all my production software. The audio drivers are there and I can use the Maschine mk3 as an external sound card as it runs windows sounds through it.
I have tried the following:
- checked the firmware of the Maschine mk3, latest version is installed
- Deinstalled and reinstalled drivers after full boot of my computer
- ran to both the trouble shooting guides for NI hardware and 'MASCHINE controller is not being recognized in the MASCHINE software'
- used different USB cables
Can this be a power issue? Should I try it with the external adapter (which I then need to buy)? Any help with this issue would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance!
