Do you think these directories lead to a binary file?

That's my point exactly, those directories don't exist. They're virtual. Those files only exist within the Maschine-headless binary file.

Do you know that NI uses files with the .deb extension to install? For example - (ni-raum_Installer.deb).
I managed to catch a few on the SD card. When unpacking there
ni-raum_Installer.deb\data.tar.\usr\lib\vst\raum .so1 -
Very interesting, no I didn't know that. I'll definitely have to look for that. Thanks for the tip!

Interesting indeed. It seems as if some updates, I'm guessing baseline revisions are released as .nu files which are encrypted and signed, but also like you mentioned, dpkg seems to be used as well to install standard and NI specific updates.

Do you have a firmware file? There is an archive with the extension (nisup) and in it (EFI.nu, recovery.nu, rootfs.nu).

I have those .nu files. the EFI, recovery and rootfs. They are easy to obtain by simply selecting firmware update from your Maschine+ and then removing SD card before rebooting. At least that is how it behaved last year. It's possible NI has changed this process since then.
The NU files appear to be encrypted and signed though, at least according to what I've seen from the eMMC dump. However there is another step that happens during this process that I have yet to find and understand.

Binwalk confirms a very high entropy, which could still mean compression vs encryption. But everything else is pointing to encryption.

this. thread is so useful. ive been able to maintain & repair my M+ because of it

That's awesome! Hope you are able to share, but understand we're kind of in a grey area here.
I'm trying to share as much as I can while also not revealing information that can be used to get free software or rip off NI.

am I still gagged? Anyway, this just so cool to read. I feel like I’m in a movie where hackers have to save the world!! I understand nothing but feel everything!! Haha

Well definitely ask questions, that's how we all learn.
A lot of people get annoyed and feel like you're talking down to them when you overexplain things they already know, so it's always a struggle to understand the audience.

I have nothing to ask, I just think it’s exciting what you do and what you can report haha
