Maschine Studio

[MarkDoyle]

I was thinking of getting Maschine Studio . I already have Komplete10 Ultimate and a Macbook Pro computer. Is it worth it for me to get? Does it make a difference?
Would love to hear what people think out there. Thanks!

What I've heard from folks that own it is that it's difficult to install/use, but that may depend on your particular level of technical expertise.

I have the regular Maschine which I've been using for almost 2 years now.

I wouldnt say it's hard to use but it can be quite tricky using it as a vst within a DAW.

Since it has its own sequencer, the tricky part is coordinating it with the DAW's timeline.

Alternatively, you can forgo Maschine's sequencer and sequence it using MIDi from your DAW so you're using purely as a sound library. In that case, it's not really worth it.

Personally, I like Maschine's workflow and I've streamlined its integration into cubase.

As far as I can tell, Maschine doesnt make komplete any better or easy to use. Except perhaps the mapping of parameters to Maschine's knobs. Thats done for you. But I dont see really see any other advantage beyond that.
