Published on 08/15/11 at 11:10Smooth installation and configuration. No incompatibilities with regret so far.
The paper manual is obsolete since the OS has been updated but the most recent PDF version is suitable (not yet available). I have had very little need to resort to the manual so far, but I will probably have as many features yet escape ...
SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE
See my profile stuff for config data. Everything runs perfectly. Exactly zero crashes in dozens of sessions.
OVERALL OPINION
Maschine I use for 3 months and the bike and the soft (actually these are exactly the same two interfaces) are very powerful.
We have plenty of choice to create a single kit among the gigabytes of sounds supplied with the beast. It sounds a very short time. The pads are nice and the sturdy knobs, two backlit displays are reliable, the sequencer works great.
I had a Roland SP-606, which suited me rather excepted the limits of the sequencer, I found a worthy successor to the Maschine 606.
The only weak point to me is the fact that we can control the tempo when used standalone. In Live, do not dream, it's not Maschine master, but the opposite would be surprising, too!
For that (or she) who seeks to beat the easy, intuitive way by touching the pads and the big sound, Maschine is the ideal machine. In my case, I am satisfied.
