Maschine 3 Crashes when Quitting - Non Fatal
Does anyone else's Maschine 3 annoyingly crash EVERYTIME you quit the application? Obviously, it's non-destructive happening only after I quit the app. So I never lose any work. But it's a near 100% crash rate at closing as long as I've had the software. Maybe once or twice has it's closed with no issue. Maschine 2 NEVER…

File Name Bug
I’ve noticed a bug when saving projects in Maschine. Every time I save a new version of a project that’s already been saved, the file name ends up stacking extra extensions. For example, my current project file is named: beat v7.mxprj.mxprj.mxprj.mxprj.mxprj.mxprj.mxprj instead of just beat v7.mxprj. On a related note, it…

Dear D-One, Mixer Mod
@D-One: Dear D-One, Can you please remake the mixer hack you made for the maschine 2 software so that I can get the tall mixer channels back? I used to keep it as a .zip file on my desktop so that every time the Maschine software updated I would go and add that back. Many Thanks, Mason

Bank/Program Change Bug
Apologies if this is not the place to post a bug report, but I did not see a post type for bugs.

Feature Request: Enable Autosave When Maschine is Used as a Plugin in DAWs
Hi Native Instruments team, I’d like to request an improvement to the current autosave functionality in Maschine: Please enable autosave when Maschine is running as a plugin (VST/AU) inside other DAWs like Ableton Live, Logic Pro, etc. Right now, if the DAW crashes, the DAW project may recover successfully — but the…

Why Doesn't My S88 mk2 Work in Maschine 3 Right Now? (MAS2-30458)
The two (S88 MK2 & Maschine 3) were working fine together until I think recent update?? I just updated my stuff yesterday my system has been off for a while - doesn't matter it's up-to-date as soon as I turned it on and before I started running into this as it's the only reason why I use this laptop. I really don't use…

Maschine 3 midi editor bug (mouse pointer)
Hello, I report about this bug which didn't exist in Maschine 2. In Maschine 2 the midi "length" edit cursor appears only on the far sides of a midi note which is logical. But since Maschine 3 update it jumps around and appears in middle of note which makes midi editing more frustrating. Hope to have this fixed! (since it…

Maschine 3 software not building database so everything stays empty
Hi fellow Maschine users, After upgrading to Maschine 3 the new software doesn't show any of my NI instruments, sounds, FX and so on. It seems the database doesn't build up at all. After searching I removed the favorites.db3 and the komplete.db3 file. I also removed the NI .xml files from the Service Center folder. After…

Live 12 Template for Maschine 3
I'm sharing my Live 12 template for working with Maschine in Ableton. The idea is to use Maschine foremost as drum machine, one shot player and browser. Then supply with other components directly in Ableton. The template maps 8 groups in Maschine to 8 drum racks in Ableton. I usually combine this with a midi template for…

How do I use BlueCat Patchwork to run Rhythmizer Fusion in Maschine 3?

Maschine 3.2, all user vendors placed into 'others'
Could anyone help by telling me if I'm the only one with this issue. Up until 3.0 and now 3.2 I've always relied on using my personal Libraries and sample packs as apposed to the maschine Library. With my Libraries and packs imported via the library section in preferences using alias's and browsing only using the mk3…

macos, cannot use Maschine 3 properly
To whom it may concern, No time to approach the product support. Don't mean to seek advice, just want to state my opinion on this: Running Maschine 3.1.1 with Windows 11 and with Macos sequoia 15.3.2 (Mac Mini M4). Hardware is Maschine MK3. I need to have my projects, groups, sounds consistent across two (3 preferrably)…

Maschine’s Limitations Are Its Secret Weapon
Recently, I tried moving a project from Maschine 3.2 to Reason 13, and unfortunately, I felt like I lost that nice, static mix I had managed to craft in Maschine. Sure, Maschine might not be a full-fledged DAW, and it may not allow for advanced audio operations, but the speed of the workflow and the way it forces you to be…

is maschine innovation a concern for our DAW?
Hey guys — first off, I just want to say this isn’t a rant or me trying to be negative. I love native instruments products and my MK3 and I genuinely love Maschine. I've invested so much money and time into this platform because I believe in it, and that’s exactly why I care so deeply. But am I the only one who feels like…

group and move scenes inside the song arranger menu?
my workflow might be a little different: each group is a song in my Maschine 3 (for live performances) because I never need more than 16 channels. Here is the thing. I build a song for a performance in the arranger view, after I made scenes. I have a, say 8 songs. First song starts at bar 1 etc. - Now, after a few…

Best Step Sequencer VST for Maschine
Hi everyone, I'm looking for a step sequencer VST that works well with Maschine. I've tried a few in the past, but they either didn’t sync properly or didn’t respond as expected. Have you used any step sequencer VSTs (something like DarkSeq) that work smoothly inside Maschine? Open to any recommendations—thanks in advance!

The future of Maschine
Yeah there have been billion threads with this title I'm sure! Thanks for letting me spam the forums over the last week or so (sorry for the amount of posts). Hopefully they will slow down now I've read the manual and scratched my head a few times. I appreciate the help. I think I stopped using Maschine at 2.4.(maybe 2.2).…

Disable clips
In song mode I would like to right click on this clip and disable it so it doesn't play back, just like I can with patterns in ideas mode. Am I correct in thinking this facility is not available in the latest version of Maschine? Only options I've got now is to move the clip somewhere else or delete it. Or perhaps move it…

[FIXED] Maschine 3.1 - Full screen broken with DPI scaling
Full screen mode is broken in Maschine 3.1 when Windows has DPI scaling on. Size of the displayed Maschine is inversely proportional to the scaling: 200% DPI scaling = Maschine taking 1/2 screen width and height, 300% scaling = 1/3 etc. Tested in Win11 24H2 26100.3476 EDIT: This is fixed in 3.2

Can't route VST outputs (XO) to separate channels in Maschine
Hi everyone, I'm trying to route the individual outputs from XO by XLN Audio to separate pads or mixer channels within the same group in Maschine. Here's my setup XO is loaded as a VST on one pad (e.g., Pad 1) in a group. Inside XO, each lane is routed to a different output (Out 1–8). Normally, in Maschine, I should be…

Plugin editor window showing a small part of plugin
Hi I just got around to upgrading to Maschine 3 software.

This disappeared when I reselected the plugin through the right-click menus on each…

Up to date Maschine 3 manual anywhere
Any up to date Maschine 3 manual anywhere? Ideally 3.2/PDF but I'll take whatever. I own a Maschine Studio, sure, legacy(ish), only Maschine 2.8 manual there. So I look at Maschine 3.2 MK3 manual, in song arranger view, instead of pattern it shows clips as button 2 on the screenshots. Workflow seems different, screens…

Ableton Link - timeline position marker won't follow

It mostly "rewinds" to the…

software limits, how to use with Reaper?
I don't understand, I'm new with the maschine, and I'm finding very important limits in the software. I hope I misunderstood, but I don't think so. How is it possible that you can write various patterns in every group of every scene, but you can use only one pattern for every group of a scene? And how is it possible that…

Release audio driver in background
I'm just wondering if there is any way of releasing the audio driver in Maschine 3.2 for other applications. For instance in Studio One there is an option: "Release audio driver in background" which will release the audio driver when the application is minimized. There are some scenarios (with my ASIO driver) where…

Export audio slow (drag and drop) under certain conditions
I'm playing with audio drag and drop between Maschine 3.2 and DAW (Studio One 7.2.1), both apps using same sample rate and BPM. Drag and drop worked great with Kontakt tracks, converted to audio fine and sync'd up OK. Then I used a track that uses the sampler, when it arrived in the DAW it ended up being too slow and out…

Maschine pitch preview
If I change the pitch by moving event/note up and down with my mouse (I need to press that speaker icon before of course), I can hear a preview as I move it up and down. If I go to the Keyboard/Events view on Maschine Studio controller I can't seem to do the same. Big bummer! Does MK3 work? (Using 3.2 Windows) Thx

That is, they can transfer the drum sounds and patterns to the Maschine software, filling out the 16 sound options for a…
