OK, so this is probaly not going to go over well on this forum, but Have you guys seen the MPC Live III that just came out??? I mean, new maschine hardware is painfully overdue. Any one have any insight?
Nobody here knows but it does look unlikely given NIs new business models.
What are those new business models. I am asking because, I have invested into the NI ecosystem, but its getting a bit long in the tooth, want to know if I should make a move over to AKAI who is clearly innovating in this space. So whats happening with NI business wise? thanks for the reply
I don't think there's any new Maschine hardware arriving in the near future. Out of interest, what would you be expecting in a hardware update?
in terms of design Maschine is almost perfect, it just needs a more powerful internals (for Plus) and new screen from new Komplete Kontrol series, and may be some new extra buttons. don't like new MPC at all, it look ugly and clunky to me, but maybe because I never used one, Maschine workflow forever. we need to see MK4 or Plus MK2 someday
NI don't go crickets and at least start the process of developing the next generation of device (if not already). Until then, I can only create AI-slop MK4s.
LEAP. I won't buy any LEAP expansions; just some loops, although maybe using my own loops may be interesting. But I am just upset how NI put time and energy into providing some expansions to AKAI but seems to give less love to us.
Is it LEAP? Always cool to have some construction kits; game changer! 😂
