Unbelievably flexible music creation software environment
Looping, slicing, step sequencing, MPC-style recording, scene sequencing — it's all possible with Native Instruments' Maschine environment! Run Maschine as a plug-in in your favorite DAW, or run it in standalone mode and use it to host your favorite VST and AU plug-ins
Powerful hands-on hardware controller
Tight hardware integration makes using Maschine an incredible tactile experience. Maschine Mikro Mk3 gives you much of the same hardware integration as Maschine, but in a smaller, more streamlined format. What's great is that Native Instruments gave Maschine Mikro Mk3 a complete set of navigation and function controls, as well as a large-sized set of velocity-sensitive, color-coded pads, so even though it's smaller than the original Maschine controller, you still get an amazing hands-on experience.
