The installation is done it without problems?
No worries for me.

The general configuration is easy?
Very. I never read the manual (I will. Someday!) Because it is super intuitive

Have you encountered any incompatibilities?
Slight problem with ProTools sync .. when I start playback from the beginning of the session and that BPM is on a track, it is shifted minutely, so I have to place my cursor to a position before pressing play.
Even with ProTools, when the cursor is placed on some grid lines, BPM does not start .... we must shift the cursor again.

SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

What is the configuration of your computer?
MacBook Pro i7 2.7 Ghz/8Go Ram / internal sound card base / MBox 2mini

The software works he correctly on this configuration?
Well, I do not remember BPM crashed one day.

This software + hardware is stable?
Perfectly.

OVERALL OPINION

How long have you been using?
4 years.

Did you try many other models before buying it?
Yes but not before after (Battery 3 Drum Rack ableton ..)

What is so special that you like most and least?
As:
Provided its bank is huge!
Super intuitive, if you have an idea in mind can recreate in minutes, ready made kits are efficient and well organized, you can navigate easily to change a sample and you can assign controllers (MPD32 for me) easily .
The effects are effective and some mixing is very well designed, you can easily assign as 16 mix outputs for each sample in a sequencer.

Minimum:
Requires iLok ............ we say that this is not a problem but when you find yourself wanting to call / listen to one compo someone and not on its own ba iLok just can not! and we say that there really is not practical!
I liked the samples of the bank are in the. Wav to be used outside BPM ..
Lack of integrated sidechain compression (I think) to add a sub kick correct.

How do you rate the quality / price?
A good case with which we can go far!

With experience, you do again this choice?
........ I'm trying to get away from products that require a iLok to never be bothered. I hesitate with Maschine that looks nice thanks to its dedicated controller.
