About your ideas for Maschine 3
Hi everyone, With the launch of Maschine 3.0.0 this Wednesday, I wanted to take a moment to highlight that many of the new features came directly from your input in the Ideas section of our community, which we introduced at the end of 2023. Huge thanks to everyone who joined in on the discussions, cast votes, and shared…
Maschine 3.0 software still not in Native Access (ordered 3 days ago)
I bought the 'Maschine 3 Bundle Update' 3 days ago, it shows my serial is registered, but I still do not see the Maschine 3.0 app in native access. I use a maschine mk3 with maschine 2, which was already registered and works great. I'm just still waiting for maschine 3.0 application to be available for download. I also…
Maschine 3 freezes while scanning
Hello, yesterday I updated the Maschine software from 2.0 to 3.0. The problem: Machine 3 freezes while scanning in standalone mode. According to the support page, I should delete the VST, VST3 and component files of the instrument/ effect that freezes the scan. I have now done this with 2 programs (Replika XT and Passive…
Is there a way to sample a loopback of the Maschine output from another app?
Hi guys I want to find a simple way to sample the output from youtube (or Spotify, etc) which goes out via the Maschine HW into the Maschine SW. Like of a "loopback", but for audio coming from another app (i.e. not audio coming from Maschine SW itself). Is this a "new feature" to be requested? It seems so evident to me…

Maschine 3 - VST - Export MIDI/Audio Drag and Drop
With Maschine 3 as a VST in Studio One I don't see the option to drag and drop MIDI/Audio to drop the pattern/clip into the host. Not sure if there is another discussion thread with bugs or how to 'officially' submit a potential bug?
Where are the stem samples?
Hello, After using stem separation, a new group is opened. The stems are labeled as expected but no sound. When I hit Sampler it reads "Missing Sample" with a "Locate" button underneath. When I hit "Locate" the Maschine3 > Samples file opens up with nothing in it. Any assistance on this issue would be greatly appreciated.
Maschine 3.0 Crashes Silicon Mac
Maschine 3.0 appears to crash my Mac almost instantly after loading as it prepares the GUI. Allowing full disk access appears to delay the crash and the software will start and appear to work, then crash the system almost irretrievably. After launching Recovery Mode everything is back but I dare not run Maschine 3.0. Has…
Lost all user content on machine 3 [Fix(?) for windows]
Hello my user content and plugin destinations did not save, and importing user libraries lost my user icons. However I found this data is stored in C:\Users\[User]\AppData\Local\Native Instruments\Maschine 2 plugin.data has your plugin destinations komplete.db3 has your icons and library destinations copy them into (and…
Help Understanding Expansions
Ahoy Mateys! Hopefully most of you had a seamless Maschine 3 SW integration. Those that chose to upgrade that is. And to those less fortunate, be patient. I've had some lackluster experiences with NI in the past but they have ALWAYS worked to resolve any issue I've encountered, albeit, not always as quickly as I'd have…
Maschine 3 Software Expansion Kits not loading correctly
Hi Since you can only reach support via chat and they don't respond, and there is no ticket system, the only option is to ask here. (And the question remains as to why NI is completely withdrawing from customer support). I bought the Maschine 3 upgrade software in a bundle with Central. Installed it. All expansion kits are…
Problems installing / updating Komplete 15 Collectors Edition and Maschine 3 Central
I am having a super annoying problem where some of the libraries are installing but others are coming back with the "Download Failed" issue. I have checked the Internet Private Relay "fix" and that has not helped. As mentioned some of the libraries are installing whereas others are not. I have done a "successful install"…
Can you run both Maschine 2 and 3 side by side?
I have lost the functions of my mk2 and s26 mk1 keyboard. Is it possible to run both on the same machine?

Unable to Select My Kontrol S61 MK3 in Maschine 3
I am only able to connect to my Maschine MK3 hardware but I am not able to connect to my Kontrol S61 MK3. I had a firmware update today that updated successfully and since then I can't even connect it as a controller in Komplete Kontrol. Not sure if anyone else is having this issue.
Help Locating These 11 NI Products
Here they are. In all their glory. I recently updated to Komplete 14 CE, Maschine 3 Bundle, and Kontakt 8. For whatever reason, these buggers just cannot be found. @Jeremy_NI Can you verify please if ALL of these are similar to the Lo-fi Vibes glitch that is known and set for resolution? I do have the Abbey Road Drummers…
Where can i find Maschine 3 fx.dll???
Hey guys how are you doing? I had a question! A few days ago I bought the Maschine 3 upgrade. When I went to install it I could only find Maschine 3.dll and not Maschine 3 fx.dll. I need Maschine 3 fx.dll to use it as an effect instead of a generator and to put it in my FL Studio master channel since that is my workflow.…
Maschine 3 unstable with SoundSource
Having regular problems with Maschine 3 not sending audio to the NI interface. When I force quit SoundSource (Rogue Amoeba) the audio comes up immediately. Probably a niche case but I'll put it here for the search engines and AI bots. I can't be bothered to raise a tech support case. Given that SoundSource has a custom…
NI’s Decision to leave Maschine out of Komplete Kollection
Leaving this here for everyone to leave their thoughts on what they think about NI not including Maschine in the Komplete Packages. I personally find this to be a cash grab and I don’t respect the business & will be spending my money elsewhere moving forward until this simple change is made. We as consumers hold the power…

Hi. I'm new here and quite a noob in music production. I use Cubase 13 and I downloaded the DEMO version of Battery 4, but I can only open it in stand alone mode. When I try to open it as an instrument in my DAW, it is not there as an option. It is installed in the same file directory as the other NI instruments. Also, I…

So far i have got to say Komplete 15 Collectors edition has been a total nightmare . The problems just keep stacking up. After a week of installing, repair/relocating inside of of native access.

Sync Issues in Kontakt 8 and Play Series Instruments?
I'm having sync issues with some Kontakt Instruments, all seem to be part of the Play Series. Over a single, looping midi note (say C3), a pattern will slow down considerably as the loop plays and continues to get worse until it is "reset" after a few loops. I can't set any notes for these patterns without them going out…

Loading new Battery 4 kits overrides outputs
Currently, we must route the cells outputs individually to the daw, for a working sidechaining. But the routing setting disappears once I select a new kit. I want to switch often between drum kits, as I have many kits installed. Is there some way to switch between kits, without losing Battery 4's cells output selection?
Name and Save a custom assortments of patterns in NI Session Guitarist Picked Acoustic
Hello. I love the Session Guitarist Picked Acoustic. I have made a custom preset of existing patterns I have chosen but I would like to name and save them as one unit. Can you kindly tell me how to rename the "Custom" and save so I can bring it into other projects later?
I bought a Maschine 3 Bundle but only got the Maschine 3 update, no Maschine Central.
We have received a few reports regarding customers receiving the Maschine 3 Update instead of the Maschine 3 Bundle Update, which includes the Maschine Central Library. If this is your case, please reach out to support and we will switch the license as soon as possible. Here's the link: https://bit.ly/n1acc
