Maschine 3.0 is great! Now where is the M+ update NI?

There was an error rendering this rich post.

NI has shared only tiny bits of vague info since they failed the spring release. Where are you all with this?

We need a Kernal update and M3 compatibility. I'd rather have a former first if the latter takes another 6mo to a year to develop. M3 brought some new excitement to the platform and showed you are paying attention to Maschine; when will we get some M+ love?

One of the NI guys said "december-january" in one of the other threads. Coming soon™

Really? So Native Instruments idea of "soon" is one or two months?

Considering we've been waiting almost a year already (for the non M3 fixes), and that NI knew M3 was coming and that the + would need to be compatible….. 😯 sheesh

To be fair, I seriously doubt NI has a dedicated developer team for Maschine. There’s prolly one person that’s considered the expert on the system and the other devs prolly get pulled off from other software products to work on Maschine related stuff as needed. When it comes to Maschine+ I wouldn’t be surprised if it was literally a single person responsible for implementing those programming changes. The frequency of updates and scope of those updates seems to reflect this setup but I could be wrong.

I added the "soon"; not the NI guys. The "soon™" thing is more of a meme and shouldn't be taken so seriously ;)

Maybe NI gave it to Santa Claus, so you need to wait till the 25th of next month?

NI have used "soon" themselves too - like in the release notes for Maschine 3, they said Maschine+ compatibility would be coming "soon".

I too get the impression there aren't enough staff and they get moved from one job to another. They're not alone. I've seen similar behaviour with other soft/hardware companies.

"Soon" it's going to be a year waiting for an update to have feature parity between desktop and M+. If the jump is directly to 3.0, I guess there will be 3.1 for desktop available before we get 3.0 on the plus. This waiting game is getting boring.

And another chorus. We have to write another chorus.

I hope it is around the corner. I know this forum is mostly a moan zone, I’ve done some moaning myself, but it does seem they are somewhat Maschine focused ATM. M3 was modest but it was cheap and had a large impact on my Maschine experience, we finally got per scene tempo! I’m excited about the next M+ update. Maschine has been my sweet cheese for making music for a decade now, but it’s been a while since I’ve been excited with its development. I pretty excited about Maschine development ATM and want to encourage the NI team as much as possible to keep it rolling. I feel we have some more good news around the corner.

NI, is at least the beta M+ update coming soon? I am so down to test this M+ kernel update ASAP!!!!!

I am a bit nervous the dev on Maschine will slow after the next 1-2 updates and refocus on the next iteration of hardware. That is my only dev fear, is that we won’t get AT, M3-M+ parity, and new kernel before that transition. Prove me wrong NI!

Where have they mentioned the Linux kernel update? What kind of benefits would that bring?
