Hello, I am using maschine on windows 11 pc for some years, now I tried to install maschine on my microsoft surface x pro with windows 11 - I used several different adapters and cables as the surface has only usb c ports. anyways I can start it but I can work ONL on the surface. maschine is playing the pads but I cannot work on maschine directly...does sombody know how to fix it??

maschine display says only: @ MASCHINE - other display Production and Performance System


I cannot change this :-(

    Apparently, On 'Win11 On Arm' there's a x86 emulation that now lets you install anything, it doesn't mean it will fully work properly; I don't think Win has a translation layer quite as advanced as Rosetta 2 but I am not an expert.

    I'll tag @Jeremy_NI for an official answer, he will prob get back to you on Monday.

    X Pro? Dont those have ARM processors?

    I doubt anything from Native Instruments works on Windows ARM, last I read about it almost nothing does, but I could be wrong... Wait for others to confirm.

    As far as I know, Maschine should also work on Surface X Pro. I see you are already in contact with our Maschine specialists regarding the issue. Hopefully they'll get to the bottom of it.

    NOPE - no positive feedback, looks like native instruments doesn´t work on surface x pro :-(

    It will not help you, but it works fine on Surface 7 Pro (i5) and Win10. Fine means it is OK to do light sketching.

    It runs Traktor just fine.

    well, Surface 7 Pro has intel processor, looks like NI cannot handle ARM processor :-( but thanks a lot for your input ;-)
