in Maschine

Hey where I can find the download link to downgrade Maschine from 3.2 to 3.1.x?

From native access there's only a uninstall button. I my account area all the links points to native access. Maschine became unusable after updating to 3.2

    For similar cases, trying these steps can help: Maschine crashes or freezes

    We wouldn' recommend to use Time Machine as it can create problems. Here's a download for Maschine 3.1.1: MASCHINE 3.1.1

    i havent tried doing the following…

    but perhaps the next time before making the update… make a copy of the maschine3.app file, save it in a different location, then you will have a backup…

    Or revert to the previous version from your Time Machine backups.

    For now I am using maschine 2, and just noticed that it consumes less cpu, some of the projects inside the expansions in maschine 2 sounds a lot better I don't know why. Example project Worthy Farm inside Indigo Dust expansion specifically inside the group Melodics sound one Dour Bass. In Maschine 2 sounds waaay better.

    Thank you @Jeremy_NI that solved the issues. Today I have decided to format my Mac after almost 8 years with the same os just upgrading os versions and installed Maschine 3 and the problem has disappeared. I haven't installed any third party plugins other than NI's and all seem to work like charm. I'll keep installing expansions and other plugins and I will report if anything breaks.
