High-quality 32-bit float internal summing delivers the latest advancements in professional sound quality. A new audio engine with multi-core technology adds sidechaining and allows higher instrument, effect, and plug-in counts, faster load times and more. A brand-new, dedicated mixer page provides detailed level adjustment and flexible routing of Maschine 2.0’s aux sends, plug-ins, and unlimited groups and insert effects.

A tag-based attribute browser makes samples and presets easy to find while the new plug-in strip make Maschine’s internal plug-ins much more accessible by displaying their individual user interfaces instead of generic buttons and knobs. The Maschine 2.0 software update features a host of enhancements and improvements, including a new mixer page and dynamic drum synth plug-ins, to both generations of Maschine and Maschine Mikro. Two all new high-resolution color displays line the top allowing for an overview and detail view of whatever you’re working on, which is not only intuitive, but also should speed up workflow considerably. The new Maschine Studio is beefer and heftier than any other Maschine product to date and contains a MPC -like jog wheel in the lower right corner. Never fear NI fanboys (and girls), the company has learned from the past and has been slowly ramping up this incarnation of the “one ring to rule them all.” Although, we haven’t gotten our grubby hands on the Studio, we really like what they’ve done to evolve their hardware and software concurrently. Native attempted to create the hub once before, with their Core product, but in what has been a stellar run of quality products, Core will be probably been known as their first serious misstep. The hardware and software announcements have confirmed what we’ve predicted when Native first announced the Maschine ecosystem, namely that the German concern is creating a DAW hub to connect all their products.

We’ve been hearing chatter about this new controller for quite a while and NI has been ramping up production just in time for the Holiday buying season.
