can i even get these anymore? i've been scouring. i miss playing with this lil dude.
You can not buy Maschine 1 software anymore and even if you get it then it might not be compatible with your present OS and even if it is that then you might not be able to activate it..
If you have a license then I think that you can download the software using links from here : Where to get Maschine 1 software
Please explain.
Are you saying that you've got a Maschine Mikro MK1 that you bought new years ago but didn't register it and lost the CD?
…or you just bought a used one without a license?
I bought it many years ago, I lost the registration key over time and then the software cd in my last move. Just hoping there's some way I could get it going again.
I literally just have the unit, no license, no software, but i have nothing to prove i bought it myself
I lost the registration key over time
If you registered the software at a previous N.I. account that you lost access to then treat it as a lost account then you will have to ask Account Support , Check this article "I Have No Access to My User Account" , . In case that you need guidance contacting support : How to contact NI Support and How to get in touch with our Customer Care .
Else also you ought to make sure that the unit is actually compatible with your present OS and it appear as if that the Machine Mikro MK1 is compatible with the Maschine 2 SW if you can get your hand on a copy of that over at the N.I. Forum Buy / Sell / Trade . N.I. doesn't sell Maschine 2 SW any more but since it is not very long tiime since N.I. stopped selling the V.2 then it is possible that N.I. support will let you have a complimentary copy of the Maschine 2 SW if you buy the Maschine 3 software but you would have to clear that with N.I. Purchase Support before buying. In case that you need guidance contacting support : How to contact NI Support and How to get in touch with our Customer Care
