    this may have already been mentioned…

    but now you can route +16 stereo inputs through maschine…. which is a big plus in my eyes!

    well done NI… worth the price of admission for that! very cool &thanks

    +16 inputs would be nice on the M+ as well, once it gets the 3.0 compatibility update

    The update for 29 € was worth it.
    Now I know for sure that I made the right decision to switch to Ableton Live 3 years ago.

    Maschine never had a downloadable demo but does have a DEMO mode, it sure is strange, maybe this could be addressed for users on the fence about updating? @Matthew_NI

    I stand by it as well. This is after an unpleasant M+ purchase fiasco through NI earlier this year.

    Not every at bat is a home run, but NI has proven to stand by their products consistently from my end user experience.

    The pricing is painfully generous in my opinion ($69 for the software & accessories in my case).

    As a Komplete 14 CE owner, I prolly could have forgone all the ‘fixins’ and just gone with the software update ($29 in my case), but at such an approachable price point for the bundle, seemed like a no brainer to me.

    Plus, voting with my wallet is more at the forefront of my spending and, at least for me, NI, warts and all, is a worthwhile company to cast dollars as votes for.

    there is a problem with the update license. looks like it is available for only those who previously bought Maschine 2.0 license separately. For owners of Maschine+ which includes 2.0 but does not list it in your account as a separate license - it says you are not eligible for update when trying to buy 3.0 update

    I posted it as a seperate question.
    anyone here with sale problem?

    Why are there no sampler improvements in the 3.0 update (particularly time stretch and a stereo-mono utility)?

    I think these were among the most requested features in your polls, yet the only thing we got is a subpar stem separation gimmick.

    Will update once a time stretch and utility update comes to Maschine+ (which I registered today and only got the 2.0 software)

    Even my 9y old nephew could in 11 years learn codding and release the new "features" which you guys did. I would be ashamed to even release that or call it a release. That "release" is more of a 2.19 patch.

    Shame on you NI! R.I.P

    Still no audio tracks, sadly. Recording audio via sampler just feels unintuitive.
    Did anything new got implemented routing-wise?

    Tempo per scene is a gamechanger for me because I can finally slow down some parts of my arrangement. It’s even more important than stems because I have already Serato Sample. But stem separations is also very welcome. Overall for 30 bucks it’s amazing value. 🤩🙏

    Thanks you @Matthew_NI and Maschine team for hard work. I know that we are expecting sometimes too much and it’s not easy to read some comments but overall Maschine is amazing piece of software and I hope you guys gonna make it event better in future.

    Thanks! 🫶👌

    I would say that some of the features are pretty nice. The price for the update is not very high too. I think I could have some fun with the stem separation function or perhaps use the MIDI editing features from time to time. I'm glad that there's some kind of integration with Komplete Kontrol MK3 keyboard, which might make me buy one of them finally. However, I cannot believe that some very simple to implement options are still not there. Still no legato option? This seems very easy to put in the software, especially that now we have some additional MIDI options. Still no Plugin Delay Compensation? Izotope is now an integral part of Native Instruments but we still cannot use their plugins in Maschine… I think people (including me) have been begging for PDC for many years. Still no aftertouch? I think that even Maschine MK3 has this feature but nobody has been able to use it because the dedicated software doesn't allow us to use it. It was a great opportunity to bring aftertouch into Maschine software now when we have some integration with the MIDI controller, the flagship feature of which was polyphonic aftertouch. Don't get me wrong - I don't want to be another one complaining about what's missing, but it's so apparent that little is offered with this update. Adding two or three other simple options like legato or aftertouch would make the update look much more appealing for many people. I don't want to demand adding some improvements in automation again, because I know that not everything needs to come straight away and maybe some other features will be added in the future, but I cannot help but think that the update is a bit disappointing. There is some cool stuff about all of that, and I'm glad that we have clear signs that Maschine software is finally being improved, but there are still so many simple things to be added that this update seems like a wasted opportunity. I hope that future 3.x versions will add some more features that have been requested by community for many years.

    The expanded I/O is actually really nice. I often use about 24-32 tracks worth of audio across all groups/sounds & have to reroute stuff and playback my tracks twice to get them into Ableton. (I like to play Maschine as a groovebox, into the DAW, so that I don't have to make as many edits or draw much automation.)

    Purchasing a boxed new Mikro from a third party (authorised) dealer.

    Can you confirm that this will include

    (1) Komplete Select 15 (either band/beat/electronic) (~31GB for band version full installation)

    + (2) Maschine 3 software

    + (3) Maschine Central Library (7GB)

    this appears to be the included software from

    ~~ products/maschine/production-systems/maschine-mikro/compare/ on the NI product page

    but is same offer from third party authorize dealers?
