Maschine Central Library necessary when Komplete 15 Collector's Edition is available?
Good day,
can someone tell me whether it makes sense to buy the Maschine 3 Software Update with the Maschine Central Library included when I own the Komplete 15 Collector's Edition? Are there several thing seperate in the Central Library, especially designed for Maschine, that are not include in Komplete 15 CE?
Thank you!
Udo

There's no overlap between the content in Maschine Central and the content in Komplete 15 CE

I see. And is it worth to update from the Maschine 2 Factory library to the new Central library when I have the Komplete 15 Collector's Edition? Are there many new things for Maschine only that I do not have yet? What kind would these be? Kontakt ensembles?

Maschine 3 can be purchased with the new Central Library. I do not believe any Maschine specific software or libraries actually ship with K15 CE. Can't see any Maschine references here:
Bundles : Komplete 15 Collectors Edition : Compare | Komplete
Within K15CE - there are a ton of new (Maschine) Expansions in there now - each chock full of Maschine specific projects, kits etc.

So it is not really worth to buy the Central Library when I own the Maschine 2 factory library and Komplete 15 CE?

I believe the new library needs Maschine v3.
But you still have not indicated what Maschine ( hardware or software) you have. Both the Factory library that comes with K15 CE and the new Central Library is not really usable with a of some sort of Maschine - be it software or hardware.
Maybe I am not understanding the question. Or comparison.VP

I have Maschine 2 software as well as Maschine 2 factory library

Plan on buying the Maschine 3 update, with or without the Central library - that's my question 😉

@Vocalpoint No the Maschine Central library doesn't need Maschine 3. It installs and runs on the Maschine+ too, which is not yet updated for 3.

I guess it all comes down to how much you use (or don't use) Maschine.
The jury is still out on whether v3 really improves V2. Some like it and some don't.
Up to you to decide for your workflow.

Ok. But my question is whether it's worth to buy the Central library. Is it a good package for Maschine or rather unnecessary, also because I have the Factory 2 library and the Komplete 15 CE.

But will it run with Maschine (software) v2? That is the question.
I do not believe the OP has any hardware in the game.

Only you can know that.
What I might think of the library (if I owned it) as far as "worth" goes may be vastly different from your idea of worth - sorry I cannot be of more help there.

Yes! It doesn't require Maschine 3 - ergo it runs on Maschine 2

Right on!
And to assist the OP - the new Central library is all new content - yes? That could supplement his ownership of the existing Maschine 2 Factory lib?

Yes, Native Instruments stated that when they released it.
