Can a hardware compressor be connected to Maschine 3?

I'm not sure what you mean here. Maschine 3 is a software, or you mean the Maschine MK3 controller? The Maschine MK3 has inputs and outputs so you could connect a hardware compressor. What are you trying to achieve exactly?

I guess it could but that would induce some latency. To have a hardware effect unit as an insert in a software means analog to digital and digital to analog convertion.

Let me explain:
Maschine 3 Software
External audio card with analog inputs and outputs connected to a physical compressor.
Can it be configured to have the compressor as an insert?
