As a long-time user and professional relying on Massive X for its elegant, distraction-free design, I’m finding the recent UI changes (especially the persistent Play/Edit/Browse bar and Animator toggle) are disruptive to my workflow, adding superfluous visual noise and complication. Also worth mentioning is that the…

Registration Failed
Hi, I bought Macshine + from gumtree, seller said it was a standalone device loaded, got home, tried to register, buyer said he got it from someone else, so no go in trying to get whatever transfer initiated.

'nother 'feature' to contend with - Firmware popup
Well I think after over a decade+ its time I parted company with all things Native Instruments.
