Product Overview

The USB 2.0 powered MASCHINE MK3 from Native Instruments is the latest incarnation of their classic MASCHINE groovebox. It's optimized based on customer research, and packed with enhanced features to boost your speed and increase your creative focus – all without breaking your workflow.

A powerful groove production studio, MASCHINE combines and implements the familiar working style of classical groove boxes along with all the advantages of a computer-based system. It's great for making music live as well as in the studio, it features the hands-on aspect of a dedicated instrument, the MASCHINE hardware controller, united with the advanced editing features of the MASCHINE software.

Creating beats with a computer is often not very intuitive, but using the MASCHINE makes it easy and fun. You can tap in freely with the pads or jam along using Note Repeat. Alternately, you can build your beats using the step sequencer just like on classic drum machines.

You can combine and rearrange Patterns intuitively, on the fly, to form larger ideas, and experiment with several different versions of a song without ever having to stop the music.

Since you can the integrate MASCHINE with any sequencer that supports VST, AU, or AAX plug-ins, you can reap the benefits in nearly any software setup, or employ it as a stand-alone application. You can sample your own material, slice loops, and easily rearrange them.

Remember, however, MASCHINE is much more than an ordinary groovebox or sampler: it includes an inspiring 7-gigabyte library, along with a sophisticated, yet easy-to-use tag-based Browser to offer you instant access to the sounds you're looking for.

Furthermore, MASCHINE provides a range of options for the manipulation of your sounds via internal effects as well as other sound-shaping possibilities. Additionally, you can control external MIDI hardware and 3rd-party software using the MASCHINE hardware controller, while customizing the functions of the pads, buttons, and knobs according to what your needs are, by utilizing the included Controller Editor application.
