I had no idea that the Maschine (the DAW) had such a small font - how do I make the font bigger?

in Maschine

I have pretty bad eyesight and I cant read the font on my laptop monitor (17" so not tiny) I need to be able to change the font size. If there is no way to I'm going to either have to buy an obscenely large (and expensive - so not happening) Monitor and rearrange my studio with no real space on my table (again a pipe dream) or return my mikro and A49 to amazon and I really don't want to do that. I didn't find it in the settings anywhere, please help me .


I also would like to change the font in Traktor on the collection view but that is still readable for me.

    on windows display settings you can set the scaling to your needs.

    not in the plugin itself.

    I'm just here to say I hope NI updates the resolution of their software, the pixelation on text is distracting on high resolution displays :(

    I thought this post was actually about that until I came inside and read

    There's no option to change the font.

    I also find it a bit hard to read and my eyesight is OK, OS scaling can help but will make everything on your computer bigger and take more space, this is what I do but the MAS/KK text will be pixelated... So no ideal option, you have to pick between tiny or bigger but pixelated.

    There's is a hacky way to do it:

    but kind of annoying to do in Windows.

    Your general computer settings should allow you to do that.

    No, you need to visit an optician who will assist you in correcting your eyesight. :-)

    Native Instruments should not have to modify their software because you can't see properly!
