What is a B-stock product?

A product becomes B-stock when it can no longer be sold as new. It can simply be a product that has been returned by a customer or it may have packaging that is damaged or missing. It’s possible that the product itself may show slight signs of use or damage too. All B-stock products are fully checked to ensure that they work properly and you can find details of why the product is a B-stock in the information above.

B-stock information

The B-stock tab on the product page shows information about the B-stock product. Be aware that this information supersedes anything you may read in the product description. The product description includes text and specifications about the product in its brand-new state. It’s possible that a B-stock item may be missing accessories mentioned in the text or specifications, for instance, but if so, this will always be mentioned in the B-stock information. B-stock products also include photos of the actual B-stock item so that you can see exactly what it looks like.

General

In order to truly appreciate this device heritage, we need to go way back to the eighties, when the Maschine was born. From that moment on, all kinds of gear with pads and sequencers started to appear on the market. Three decades later, Native Instruments have breathed new life into this iconic piece of equipment with the Maschine MK3 controller! It's the ultimate machine for groove producers and offers USB and MIDI in one production station as well as its very own built-in audio interface!

The Maschine MK3: What's New?

The first thing you'll notice about the MK3 is its pair of large colour displays, which is just one of the improvements compared to its predecessor. Fine-tuning your NKS-compatible plugins has never been easier! There's also a practical controller that combines a push encoder and a cursor. The MK3 is equipped with a touch strip for strumming or adding pitch bend effects. For your performance, the MK3 features a Note Repeat button that triggers drum rolls and arpeggiators. There are also transport buttons that are sure to make any in-the-box producer grin from ear to ear!

A Complete Studio

No matter how complex your groove gets, the Maschine MK3 maintains a clear overview. Create grooves with using the top-notch pads that have RGB LED lights. The audio interface is an excellent example of 21st century technology that boasts a signal quality of 96 kHz at 24 bits. You'll also receive Komplete SELECT, a trimmed-down version of the popular Komplete 11 package, which has 8GB of drum kits and loops.

Tips or comments about this product

  • The MK3 is USB powered. There is a compatible power supply available that can be used for extra-bright control panel backlighting in darker environments.

Bax Music Warranty This product comes with a 3-year warranty.

Native Instruments Maschine MK3 Controller (Black)

Really good versatile product incorporated into my home studio. The amount of Plug Ins, Promotions and Expansions received make this a brilliant buy. Well built, and easy to configure, just leaves learning the massive amount of features the Maschine MK 3 has.

Native Instruments Maschine MK3 Controller (Black)

Één super all-in-one pakketje voor een recreatieve producer zoals mij die graag afwisselt tussen songs maken, live spelen of wat finger drummen.

De Maschine mk3 kan al de bovenstaande zaken, zonder het al te moeilijk te maken voor wie hier geen behoefte aan heeft. Voor wie dit wel heeft kan je langs de andere kant enorm gedetailleerd aan sound design doen en in de instellingen prutsen.

Grootste pluspunten naar mijn mening, (weliswaar als zijnde een nieuweling in het gebruik van externe hardware naast mijn DAW) :
- heel divers qua functionaliteit en doeleinden waarvoor je hem kan gebruiken
- gemaakt van stevig materiaal
- heeft een hoge bekendheid bij het publiek, waardoor er veel content over beschikbaar is
- intuïtieve interface en workflow, waar ook heel goede learning content over beschikbaar is
- goede, aanpasbare RGB pads

Minpunt :

- De beschikbare technische hulpverlening van de fabrikant zelf is regelmatig incorrect of niet meer van toepassing,waardoor je gebruik moet maken van diverse andere hulpmiddelen om dit op te lossen.

prijs kwaliteit vind je niet beter voor dit soort product, in mijn ogen.

Native Instruments Maschine MK3 Controller (Black)

Gebruik de Native instruments Maschine mk3 nu al weer een tijdje.
Het is gewoon een genot om mee te werken .
Als je weet hoe alles werkt heb je heel snel een een basis gelegd voor een song.
Het apparaat is zelf heel overzichtelijk ingedeeld.
Is stevig en mooi afgewerkt.
Nog geen minpunten kunnen ontdekken.

Native Instruments Maschine MK3 Controller (Black)

Werkt (waarschijnlijk ) niet als Stand Alone en wat heb je er dan aan? Op de computer kan je ook Native Instrumenten zetten en een “goedkoop” midi keyboard. Of ik snap het niet? Jammer. Mooi product, dat wel!

Native Instruments Maschine MK3 Controller (Black)

Erg mooi spul. Ik kocht deze net voor Maschine 3 uit kwam, maar kreeg uit coulance alsnog de update gratis.
Daarnaast heb ik nu een handige template om Cubase aan te sturen, dat werkt ook erg fijn.
