I have had my Mashince mk3 for several years now. I finally saved up enough to get the awesome Komplete Kontrol S61 Mk3. For the last couple years I looked at how great the integration was with the Maschine on the Mk2, having the mixer on the keyboard and access to tracks etc, I had saliva running down my chin. I just assumed and yes my fault that NI would have gone forward with the awesome integration, and not just dump all integration and for what? I love the Komplete Kontrol keyboard, but now Im forced to make a choice, dump the keyboard or dump the Maschine because they don't play well together.
