Used Native Instruments Maschine Mkii Midi Controller

I use this with a Native Instruments Maschine and love the quality of sound these headphones produce. I am able to wear it for extended periods of time without it bothering my ears, and the range is very good with both the high end and the low end of sounds. Thus far, I have no complaints at all.

Works great with my Mikro and the Maschine software as a MIDI controller and fun to use on it’s own as well. I’m completely new to all this and it’s been fairly easy for me to set it all up. It comes with a lot of tutorial and support. Also, B&H support and shipping has been top notch.

+ I bought this Akai MPK Mini MKII MIDI controller because I tend to have a creative itch that I have to scratch sometimes and lugging my Akai MPK25 can be tedious if you know the size and weight compared to this MPK Mini MKII, which is about 3 times the depth, twice the height, and a little wider too, but the weight is like quardruple at least. I work with FL Studio for producing music and this helps me mess around and build some songs. + What I love about it is not only its compactness, They give you enough controls to work with. You can't go all out, but you can get plenty done with this model when on the go. It fits in my Think Tank Urban Disguise 60 V2.0 bag, along with my 15' Sony VAIO laptop, Wacom Intuos Pro SE Medium tablet, and a Cooler Master cooling pad. Adds almost an unnoticeable weight. The pads are definitely more responsive than the MPK25 actually. + What I don't like about it is that the dials have a min and max. I honestly like the infinite dials. I tweaked my Lightroom to accept and map MIDI controller for use in Lightroom (ex: having an dial to control your basic adjustments). I can't really use this for that purpose, but the MPK 25 works very nicely for that reason. I'm excited that B&H is about to sell Loupedeck this upcoming August 2017! + Overall? This is a nice treat to have for anyone who messes with music producing. When I found out such a thing existed (I'm kinda late), I had to order one immediately!

I hesitate with the purchase of Maschine MK3 too long. The reason was I worried about having to rely on a computer. The truth is I hardly ever touch computer, this is only to name the saved projects, other than that I pretty much forget about it. It is an incredibly user friendly and intuitive device which can definitely be called a musical instruments. The only not so straight forward part was downloading all the content from NI website, but that's only because some of it was already installed on my laptop (came with a purchase of some other hardware) and I needed to update the software. The Maschine MK3 sounds amazing, especially some of the sampled acoustic drum instruments. The pads are super responsive so beat making is very easy. I highly recommend it!

I have been using Native Instruments Komplete Audio 6 for many years..sadly it failed. I viewed many potential replacements....one serious contender didn’t have a separate headphone volume control....unacceptable! I’ve been aware of Focusrite’s reputation and their Gen. 3 is garnering rave reviews. I was blown away. Immediately I noticed a bump in headroom. The overall sound was more defined across all frequency ranges. Setting up this item was a breeze in my DAW. N moments I was ready to work. I have only begun to use this but I am so pleased. I am also hugely pleased with B &H. Twice, in one month, they came thru. Prices beat out known music equipment vendor prices......shipping is ‘FAST’ . B & H doesn’t mess around. They are my ‘Go To” place now for my music needs! THANK YOU!!!!!

holds my midi controller perfectly, real nice.

Top quality cables. Work perfectly with my midi controller.

I have been a big fan of the native instruments keyboard since they came out, and this one is no exception. It is very simple to use, but the way that the new screen is displayed and the sound or organized and not only being able to mod the parameter so easily is a big plus. the screen is beautiful. The key bed is nice. I wish I could’ve got an upgrade from my MK two but beggars can’t be choosers. I would purchase again of put in the same situation.

I use this product for my DJ rig to connect my Native Instruments Komplete 6 audio interface to my DBX Go portable rack interface.

Great waterproof material, protects my native instruments s4, holds more equipment and organizes cables. Great backpack and highly recommended!
