Well,
I used to own one (i think its borowed from one of my dad's friends because he is a artist) but i took an arrow to the knee and returned it. I am trying to keep the Maschine if i get permission OR i must buy one. >:(
Great Tool / Bad user
I bought an MK2 on labor day over a year ago thinking I could pick it up and learn to produce my own loops and maybe even songs. sigh Yeah I still can't work anything out on that front. However, the device itself is solid and has been a great addition to my DJ rig. Can't wait to fully integrate it.

Solid
Solid piece of gear. Doesn't give you the complete intuitive workflow like the push, but there are many options to incorporate the Maschine in your productions. That is either stand alone, or as a VST in your DAW. I prefer to use the latter and it does the trick each and every time. Great piece of gear, but not sure which one to choose if you have to pick between Push and Maschine. Luckily I have both and don't have to choose ;)

Freaking love this thing. The true merriage of hardware and software!
I love it but Native Instruments have been very slow at updating their system
The summary says it all. I came from the MPC 2000XL and have always loved using outboard gear. When Maschine came out, it was the first of it's kind to merge the best of both worlds. I would love the same 16-Levels system like the MPC (multiple samples without changing tempo of the sample) but...that's for a perfect world.
