Turn off the screen, turn on inspiration
There is something special about autonomous production systems. Since the 1980s, countless sample-based hits have been produced outside the confines of a computer. There's something refreshingly immediate about using an autonomous system — the ability to create and execute anywhere while being forced to rely on your ears instead of your eyes! MASCHINE+ offers this creative release, but can also serve as the core of a computer-based setup. Compose a track offline, then put it into your DAW for further tweaking. It really is the best of both worlds!
A powerful production system
MASCHINE+ is loaded with a host of powerful features. Equipped with a huge amount of processing power and an integrated 96kHz/24-bit interface, MASCHINE+ lets you cut high-fidelity samples in real time and manipulate them with Native Instrument's vast selection of sound design effects. You'll have enough juice to build extensive chains of delays, reverbs, saturators and more! And MASCHINE+'s deep feature set is simple to navigate with its stunning high-resolution color display. Designed for interaction, MASCHINE+ puts technology at the service of creativity — so you can focus less on technology and more on art!
Easy song creation, remixing and performance features
The standards-oriented concept of MASCHINE+ frees you from the limits of linear arrangement. Create music by layering patterns into scenes that you can rearrange on the fly. MASCHINE+ offers built-in sampling through its built-in audio interface, as well as internal resampling, precise editing and splitting, automatic mapping, effects, and an ultra-convenient browser. Formidable sample editing tools let you go beyond groove arrangement, turning MASCHINE+ into a complete sample editing workstation as well as a groove production tool. We found that MASCHINE+'s incredible cutting tools do everything classic groove production samplers can do and much, much more!
Over 8GB of production-ready drums, instruments, and loops
MASCHINE+ comes loaded with over 8GB of production-ready sounds and patterns. You get fat drum kits and state-of-the-art synth sounds, including vintage MPC 60 kits and classic synth samples from the Moog Voyager, Korg MS 20, and Juno 60. You also get pristine acoustic instrument loops that have been cut and scored for your convenience. MASCHINE+ also features studio-quality effects, ranging from dynamic processors to beat-mashers, as well as mastering tools and a Grain Stretch effect. And to top it off, MASCHINE+ includes the Native Instruments Machine+ plug-in suite, which includes 14 great Komplete titles.
