Hey all! I've been on Maschine for years on Mac. I have a new Dell Inspiron 5570; is this compatible?

Can you suggest a PC that "plays nicely" with Maschine mk2 [mikro]? Thank you!!😀

    Specs of the Dell would be helpful in determining Compatability (beyond Win 11 OS) And really the only way to see if there might be an issue would be to install the Maschine software (assuming Maschine 2) and giving it a try!!!

    If it runs windows it will be "compatible", however how well it works depends on a lot of factors including exactly what you intend to do with Maschine, what instruments you wanna load, what audio interface setup you have, the speed of your disk/s and many other factors. As mentioned, listing the hardware details of your machine would be the first step and if you are unsure on that front, learn that because you ki9nd of need to know what your machine is and what is inside it before you can figure out what it is capable of

    "Gaming" usually just means it has possibly higher than average specs and some kind of RGB lighting to keep kids entertained. If it runs windows or macOS, then it will work but again as echoed above, how well a machine works depends on the hardware within and what one wants to do with maschine, how many instruments, what kinds and of course if they have a decent audio interface or a Maschine MK3
