    Has anyone tried this with the "Machine Studio"?

    I noticed they stopped support for the "Machine Studio" as well.

    And now that people have paid for the software there should be more pressure to make them happen.

    I'm a little skeptical about that myself, I think the update price is fair for what it is but at the same time it doesn't inspire me with a lot of confidence. Because of it's low price there really isn't (IMO) that much pressure on NI to implement the new features we've been asking for, it feels a bit like a cop-out.

    I had high hopes…Each time I have high hopes…This time they finally understood…

    And each time, it's a letdown…

    On the pro side :

    Tempo per scene is a very welcome feature.

    Price is right for existing users.

    Stem separation is…Well…A toy to me…But that's because there are much better tools to do that already avaliable elsewhere…But I can understand that it was a mandatory feature to release…Or can I ?

    New midi editing tools…At last…12 years without them, I could have lived a bit longer not using them, I probably will…

    Piano roll…Long due…

    Bounce : nice, no more painfull workarounds…

    On the other side :

    I'm not impacted by this but I really can't see which revolutionnary feature had to drop MKII/Studio/etc.. compatibility…I'm not a software engineer so there are probably tons of technical constraints I miss here…Nothing commercial really…

    Automations improvements, editing, recording ? Lfos, round robin ? Internal midi routing between tracks, from vst etc…? Per step probability ? An actual usefull use of massive colour screens ? Custom Chords ?

    Noone really requested them I suppose ?

    I'm really wondering how many users who answered the numerous surveys mentionned that " 8 Gb of paid new samples, kits and sounds" is what is missing to Maschine to really make it shine like it should…

    Really, I'm wondering…

    What could I make with all this new content I can't already make with the countless expansions, instruments and sounds already avaliable…If that's for "supporting the product", I can understand…

    But I'm not supporting more samples/presets libraires…

    Sorry !

    You never pay for new products with the promise they will get better. NI are clearly behind w the Maschine eco system.

    Bought a Push 3 last year to move away from Maschine. DAW routing UX on Maschine should have had more attention. Also considering selling my Maschine MK3 now (supporting Drum Machine on Cubase 14 might save it).

    Again a possible promise of features is not the same. They have not delivered on release day.

    This update feels like some low hanging fruits where slapped into the software and a heavy contrast UI with bulky icons was smeared over it to make it look like a major update.
    But all the previous flaws are still there and important features to use maschine standalone without any other DAW for any part of production are still missing..

    Because of the integration with Izotope and other brands I assume NI has gone through a tough period of restructuring so I'm very happy to see that products both hard- and software are release in a much quicker rate than months ago. So this is promising fot the future.

    For now I'm happy with de M3 update because of the decent price point of €29,-. I hope this is the start of many updates to come because Maschine isn't there yet, still missing things, like using those big screens not for massive pluginnames but for actual informative graphics like EQ curves, Envelopes, Compressor gain reduction metering etc…

    I've three questions:
    1) @Kai_NI Is there any timeline that can be shared about when this is coming to Plus Standalone. Like before the end of year or something,
    2) If I buy the upgrade now. Do I have to pay again for the Plus upgrade?
    3) Am I right that this is just the beginning of a big Maschine regular update revival, can you share anything about what to expect in the coming months?

    Thanks! (And happy Maschine user here).
