maschine mikro mk2
i use this as a side controller for my dj software and to finger drum in my extra time
Not sure how I did without it
Take it on the road and use when tracking (and sometimes with Traktor). Sometimes I put SFX on it and drums on my full Maschine for more spontaneous or whatever tracking.
Yep.
Use it for instant hands-on beat inspiration, anywhere.. Sits perfectly atop my macbook pro when travelling / in confined spaces.
Owning the beat!
It is a great beat machine to produce with, with a size that gives you the freedom to take it anywhere with you and keep making amazing music. Easy and fun to use, and it comes with a great sound library to crea your own style! It is actually becoming part of my live set!
By far the best hybrid drum an synth unit ive ever used
Iam chuffed that I purchased this duo last year the drum sequencer is second to none comprehensive and super easy to use. The drum samples on this unit sound dynamic and can be edited to the users tastes it comes with a multiple effects suite where four effects can be applied to a single drum sample offers the programmer the ability to create any drum sound imaginable. Yes this maschine comes with over 8 GB off content and colours can be applied to the drum pads for easy recognition of what instrument is being triggered. Also the chord and arp function can control external vsts so opening up a wealth off possibilities. In my opinion maschine make the best hybrid groove station on the market today.
Mashine Mikro MrkII
The Mikro is controls everything I need and use inside Traktor Pro without needing to look at the computer or use a keyboard. It is fully mapped using a custom midi mapping that has taken 2 years to develop and is constantly being changed as my live shows needs shift. It also has a group/page bank that controls 3 more loops inside mainstage, and I can also trigger video visual clips in a third group/page bank.
Great for quick groove sequencing
I have the Maschine Mikro MKII for about 2 years at the time I write this and it is a great tool for quick groove sequencing and als a great live performance tool to create beats on the fly. As a VST in Ableton you get the best of both worlds.
Great hardware and software
With a bit more polish (mainly to make the keyboard and mouse work better rather than assuming you'll do everything via the hardware buttons) this could be my DAW of choice. The step sequencer is really great. As for the hardware the pads are velocity sensitive and have a nice feel, unlike the clicky on/off pads on a launchpad. You get the Massive synth vst with this deal too and a great set of samples.
