Hi all,
Today I was back at Should I just sell off my Maschine MK3? It happens every time I take it out of the closet once in a few weeks. It's been that way ever since I bought the damned thing 3-4 years ago, but this time I figured out it wasn't the hardware or its complicated DAW integration to blame, but the software itself. Here's what is happening -
- I open Maschine
- I go to the Browser -> Groups tab
- I select a kit to preview the sound
- the sounds starts playing
- the sound stops abruptly after a second or two
- the software hangs
- the hardware display freezes
And that's it! Mac OS cursor turns into the psychedelic color wheel. Activity Monitor says Maschine is "Not Responding". R. I. P. Maschine.
The only way to bring it back from dead is to Force Quit the Maschine software. And then, it starts all over again from Step 1. So basically, my Maschine (hardware as well) has become unusable right now.
And this happens in standalone mode as well as plugin mode within Logic Pro X, and whether I am browsing in the software or on the hardware.
Anyone encountered this? Anyone knows how to fix this?
I have Maschine v2.15.0, I'm on a 14" MacBook Pro with M1 Pro running Mac OS Monterey 12.3.1 and Logic Pro X 10.7.4.
By the way I already tried https://support.native-instruments.com/hc/en-us/articles/210277225-MASCHINE-2-Crashes-or-Freezes-at-Startup-VIDEO-. I also deleted the favorites.db3 file, restored that one from backup, but nothing works.
