'New 2019 iMac' tells us absolutely nothing... You're most likely have an unsupported MacOS version, maybe Ventura or Sonoma...
The Mk1 is only officially supported up to MacOS Mojave (10.14):
So, if you have a more modern OS you will need to downgrade it.
Modern MacOS and 15 year old HW do not go together.

32-bit here does not refer to audio bit depth, but to 32-bit addressing and data used by Mac OS X and apps in macOS 10.14 (Mojave) and below. From macOS 10.15 (Catalina) and onwards, they use 64-bit addressing and data.

Hi
thanks for answering
I'm on Sonoma 14.2.1 hoping NI will un-terminate the operability of the MK1, otherwise I am going to have to buy a new controller with software I already own, which would be a bummer

I use both of MK1's with MacOS Monterey 12.7.1 perfectly.
I found the Workaround deepin on NI's support website.
I haven't tried on Ventura or Sonoma

This decision was made years ago, its not gonna change... theres no "unterminate" once things are "terminated". Either you downgrade your OS or buy a used Mk2 if you're short on cash, they go for as low as 50-75$, sometimes even less...
You can bassically get an MK2 for the price of a dinner + pack of gum.
Mind sharing that so others who land in this thread can also try it?

Hi all
"I found the Workaround deepin on NI's support website" do you mean controller editor 280?
Is the MK2 controller still supported?
In my country MK2 controllers cost about 200 euros so I don't want to buy an empty box

I see tons of MK2's that were sold in ebay.nl, anywhere from 60 to 120, some crazy folks ask for 250/300 but those don't sell.
The trick is to use advanced search and look for completed listings, to see at what price people get actual sales VS the price crazy people want to get.
Also, you're in the EU, so you should be able to buy from anywhere within the EU without paying customs. If your country has a popular used market website look there too, just be extremely careful with scams. I live in Portugal which is a tiny country and always buy/sell this sort of stuff locally in person, as long as you're a decently sized city that shouldn't be an issue over there.

controller editor 2.80 does not want to install on my Sonoma 14.3 iMac. It keeps showing error. How can I install this for Maschine MK1 ?

What error?
Apple Silicon or Intel?

Hello everybody
I finally got my hands on a Maschine controller MK2 because MK1 is no longer supported/useable
On the NI site it says there's Maschine controller driver 2.80 for Mac from 2015
I now have 2.82...Is there no higher driver than 2.82 for MK2 for Mac ?
cheers Case (using Maschine since 2009)

What is this device updater 1.70 ? (from 2018)
I haven't tried that yet/ afraid of screwing things up
specially because I don't know how to check which updater I have now if any
is this a new form of driver? instead of controller editor?
I'm a little lost here/ help is appreciated

It's a tool to update the firmware on the device, if you run the tool it shows you what version firmware is currently installed and to which version it will be updated to, in case your is not up to date.
No, it has nothing to do with the controller editor. Usually firmware updates fix things and don't introduce bugs/problems.

About the updater 1.70…The info on the updater reads "removed 32 bit". As I am running my audio setup in 24 bit won't that make my Mac stop working with Maschine MK2 ?
