I really love my MK3… rocking it for a week now. I’m not a Maschine user, so I don’t miss the integration. I’m a Ableton and MPC user. I use Komplete ultimate and Arturia v collection al lot and I like the Komplete Kontrol integration. So far for me I like the update from my MK2 to MK3 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽

No doubt bro, between Ableton, V Collection and Komplete, this is probably the best keyboard to control them all.

This is exactly the content i need to see before buying the mk3! Currently getting my hobby room ready to use again to explore my maschine mk3 & A49 deeper. I love NI but i think they need to implement and update it for the display, thirdparty etc. even more. (I am sure they will) Thanks a lot again and you can go indept anytime like this because i will watch it... ✌🏻😎

Was thinking of getting this then I saw the new Korg Keystage

Keystage looks great. If you're not into NI's ecosystem it's seems like a solid choice. However at that point Novation's SL MK3 also looks pretty solid and even better for Ableton.

Thanks NI now it's easier for me to decide to get a MK2. Cheaper, better implement of MASCHINE and I don't have to be a Alpha-tester.

MK2 looks really compelling now, it's almost 2x cheaper and still really good.

Hey @LowHeatBeats - do you know if there were any software updates that enhanced ableton workflow? such as maybe some button combination to capture etc?

@LowHeatBeats 2 ай бұрын

No, there haven’t been any significant updates so far but from what I’ve read on the NI communty page, we can expect multiple updates this year.

Komplete Kontrol software sucks. Especially the GUI.

There is some way to control Ableton devices, I found it online somewhere and works. You have to add a Mackie control in the Ableton MIDI settings and then certain weird cc values for yhe encoders.

@LowHeatBeats 8 ай бұрын

That's great, can you post a link to it? I think it's also not too hard to modify the control sufrace script to add it. But the point is that most users wouldn't want to bother with this, so it should be provided officially.

Released with so many bugs & No Maschine support 🤦‍♂️ wtf were they thinking 🤦‍♂️

@LowHeatBeats 8 ай бұрын

I hear you about the Maschine support, but honestly it works as a basic MIDI keyboard with Maschine which is pretty much how I used the MK2. I never really used the advanced integration that much, since the actual Maschine controller is much better for this. But I definitely agree that they should bring it back.

@@LowHeatBeats I do and i'll tell ya the MK2 and the Maschine plus is a awesome combo.But i can see the direction they are going with the Mk3 it's only the Maschine integration for me right now.

@@Diddddu No doubt, just keep on rockin' with your MK2 then.
