Maschine + (nor Maschine Mikro) not recognized in controller mode with Maschine 3
Hi, I've been working with Maschine+ for 2 years. I hadn't used it since the release of the new Maschine 3 version. Recently, I decided to get back to it and realized that after completing all the upgrades on both my Maschine+ and my computer, the M+ in controller mode is recognized neither by Maschine 3 nor Maschine 2. I…

Just one little Midi Recording tweak, please!
As Maschine is very nice and quick for tapping in notes it’s well known that it lacks a bunch of modern sequencing features like probability, polymeters and midi fx. An obvious workaround would be to use an external sequencer but there is one Maschine behavior that makes this solution annoyingly tricky to use. Whenever I…

Maschine+ warranty repair agreement no longer valid?
Hello Native Instruments team, I write here because support team couldn't help me with my faulty Maschine+. After buying it factory refurbished from your official reverb shop Native Instruments GmbH Direct Voerde (Niederrhein) last year (31.10.2025) I had to send it back because it came with a broken power connection.

MIDI from Maschine + into Logic Pro recording issue
I bought the Maschine + a year ago and had a few head-achy weeks grappling with how it works - I am a Logic Pro user of over 20 years and I was told by a sales rep the Maschine system would be easy for me - it wasn't - my conclusion was it was overly complicated and illogical - so I put it to one side. Recently I installed…

Difference in standard between AD and DA converters on Maschine Plus.
I transferred digitally, nine sine waves from a computer to Maschine Plus: 20, 50, 100, 500, 1000, 5000, 10000, 15000, 20000 Hz. I played these through the output and recorded them into Izotope RX 7 via an Antelope interface. The recorded sine waves were identical to the original sine waves. However recording the same sine…

Project and Group management on the M+
Does anyone have any tips or best practices for managing Projects and Groups within the Maschine+ standalone? Specifically, can you tag different groups/projects or save them in subfolders on the SD card? For projects, it's a pain to scroll through the full list of projects without any other information (e.g. create date,…

Who you gonna call? Ghostbusters! (Maschine MK3 ghost knobs Fix)
I bought my Maschine MK3 when it first came out, and for years I couldn't solve the infamous "ghost knobs" issue... random parameter changes, settings moving on their own, and occasionally pads lighting up for no apparent reason. Online, and even here, a lot of people suggest checking your USB cables, power supply, or the…

"I need options" (and not another Linux rant)
So I'm sure people are going to say its emotional or projectionism, and maybe mostly rubbish; I'm tired of having to be a technician/engineer/admin. I wanted to be a musician, a performer and creative. This year Microsoft ended support for Windows 10. Making 3 of my 4 studio PCs redundant. "Throw them away" said Microsoft…

Maschine+ does not properly "save with samples"
I'm using the hardware M+ standalone. I have had issues since upgrading to Version 3, and now I cannot 'save with samples' properly. I usually save projects, with samples - and then load the SD card into my computer to make backups of my projects, however I was working on a project the past two days, and when I looked at…

Registering a used machine, plus
I bought a used machine +2 1/2 weeks ago and opened a support ticket. I have yet to hear anything from native instruments. It’s been two weeks. That’s a little bit ridiculous as far as customer service in response time for a support ticket the issue is the unit is turned on and everything works perfectly fine. I have…

Maschine Poly Synth - Pulse Oscilators leak high energy. ¿DC correction?
Just decided to give a chance to PolySynth, after years of using VSTs for this range. And I was very satisfied with the easyness of use and specially its clear page disposition of controlls. I will still hold my opinion about sound, as I need to explore more. However, noticed that when using Pulse Osc in widths different…

inMusic FLOW — A Vision for the Next Generation of Music Hardware
From my point of view and my experience working with Akai MPC and Maschine, I imagine the future not as two separate worlds, but as the evolution of both philosophies into a completely new type of instrument. I call this concept: inMusic FLOW A hybrid standalone performance system that combines the strongest ideas from…

Maschine Plus Error When Registering the Hardware
Q: Translation inserted by Moderator (translation by DeepL) Hi everyone, I just bought a used Maschine Plus. The seller sent me the ID to register it to my account. I received the ID, and it was successfully registered to my NI account—everything was fine up to that point. Then I decided to do a factory reset to wipe it…
