The Smart Strip opens up MASCHINE to whole new ways of playing. You can also map your most frequently used FX, instruments, or plug-in parameters to macros with the touch of a button. Touch once to activate special contextual menus, such as tag clouds, sound settings, and FX parameters. Go beyond tweaking with eight touch sensitive knobs. Plus, it’s USB-powered, so you can record anywhere with your laptop – or plug in the included power supply unit for brighter pads. Stereo line and MIDI ports make it a perfect centerpiece for any studio. Simply patch in a synth or add a dynamic mic for quick recording and sampling. MASCHINE now comes with a studio-grade, 96kHz / 24-bit audio interface for pristine sound. Plus, the high-res screens let you get more precise with your mixing, see an overview of your arrangement, or zoom in on waveforms to slice samples like a surgeon. With two full-color displays and the four-directional push encoder, you can browse sounds, FXs, plug-ins, and instruments with a tactile, one-handed, completely visual workflow – simply find the thumbnail and load directly from the hardware. And since the center-to-center distance is exactly the same, your muscle memory and workflow don’t have to change. New technological updates make the pads more sensitive to lighter touches, for more expressive playing. Optimized based on customer research, it’s packed with new features to boost your speed and increase your focus – all without breaking the workflow you love.īig, bold, and in your face, the larger pads create more room for complex moves like flams and rolls. The new MASCHINE takes our classic groovebox workflow and makes it faster and more intuitive. MASCHINE lets you effortlessly produce beats, melodies, and harmonies with powerful drum synths, premium sounds, an integrated sampler, and more – cutting-edge software meets intuitive hardware for ultra-smooth workflow.
