    • Excellent drum pad
I tried quite a few cheaper drum pads to use with my DAW but the touch sensitivity is lousy with those. I tried you tube hacks with electrical tape and that made the Akai pads OK but not great. These are the real deal. Its a lot of machine and software just to be a drum trigger but its hefty, well made and the pads are great, perfect touch sensitivity. Its a little pricy but worth it. Great addition to my arsenal. I use it with Addictive Drums 2 and Studio One 5. The pad mapping works great. ... show more

    • Many improvements have been made!
So. I wrote a fairly negative review when this thing first came out, but I need to update my review now because things have changed. My workflow is as such: I use FL Studio as my DAW, because it's what I've been using for almost two decades. I make some symphonic stuff with drums and some other hybrid sounds, and am classically trained in music. I was originally pretty upset because the functionality of this device with FL Studio was very limiting. Here is what has changed: 1) They added MIDI mode to the Mikro Mk3. This is great. Now I can use the pads to trigger all of my percussion VSTs outside of Maschine. Mapping the touch strip to any control in the host is as easy as two mouse clicks and touching the strip. We still cannot re-map the notes of the pads in MIDI mode in the Controller Editor, but it's easy enough to do that in the VSTs themselves so that they match with the layout of the Maschine pads. 2) Way more instructional videos and forum posts exist on the internet now than they did when the Mikro Mk3 was released. This means that if you need to figure out how to do something, you have a much better chance of finding how someone else did it. This was extremely useful for me as it allowed me to learn how to do items #3 and #4 in this list, which for me were the main purpose behind getting this thing. 3) You can create an instance of Maschine, put the pads in 'Note' mode, assign whatever Mode you want such as D Dorian or C Aeolian, record a pattern into Maschine and then drag the MIDI notes into a different VST in your DAW. This is a game changer, because it allows me to humanize instruments that I may want to further tweak in my DAW rather than tweaking them through the instance of Maschine I have in there. 4) You can use the pads to overwrite the velocity of notes you have created by mouse in FL Studio. Since I write a lot of melodies by mouse, the biggest drawback to this is humanizing velocity. There is something special about using your hands to hit something and having that translate to the velocity of each note. Ok. So you can just put the thing in MIDI mode, hit one of the pads to the rhythm and velocity you want to overwrite in your mouse-programmed-part, save that to an untitled .fsc (score), then load that .fsc as a QUANTIZATION template and use only the velocity. It's a little bit of work, but a total game-changer for someone like me who can write faster with a mouse than anything else. The only reasons I give this less than five stars are: 1) The Native Instruments software used to download and install everything can be a bit buggy on some computers. You may have to disable your Windows firewall and run the application in compatibility mode for Windows 8. 2) I have to be a little hacky (like in items 3 and 4) in order to get this thing to work in my particular workflow, which admittedly is different from the majority of people who would use such a device. ... show more

    • Excellent hardware, no iPad OS support
I've tried a number of different pad controllers looking for one that is compact, well built, and feels good to use. This hits all those boxes. The Mac software is reasonably good and a much better experience than I had with Akai. It supports a MIDI mode when connected to a computer and can be used as an interface to other DAWs. But it lacks iPad support, which feels a real oversight for a controller this well built and portable. MIDI mode appears to require drivers on the computer that it is connected to, for whatever reason and those drivers aren't available for iPad. It would have been a great companion to Logic on iPad, otherwise. I continue to enjoy the product, but unfortunately it tethers me to my desk. ... show more

    • Best bang for the buck.
I was looking for a new way to approach tune making. This device shines with its Machine DAW software and the ability to customize it with the configuration software. You can view many Youtube videos demonstrating its capabilities, so I will summarize here: The Maschine software is a DAW that can use existing VSTs and any of the NI expansion packs to create songs. Maschine software is based on the concept of building blocks for your composition...build a beat or phrase, chain beats and/or phrases and link them together. This is not how I create music but it's very useful, nonetheless. I love the key and chord modes that allow great experimentation. You configure your scale and base key and pretty much can't go wrong with the pad strikes. There's many different chord types and scales to choose from which really opens up the experimental aspect. I use Cubase and Reason and it integrates perfectly as a VST instrument in both cases. Many instances can be opened, so you can create a song using your favorite DAW and using the Maschine as an instrument for each track. This is what works best for me. Additionally, it is easily set up in MIDI mode by pressing (SHIFT + project) and using the configuration software, the pads can be adjusted to match your favorite drum machine. The config software allows you to adjust pad colors in MIDI mode. Maschine works really well if you have another NI keyboard. I have a Kontrol S61 and it can be used to browse and play harmonic notes right alongside the pads. Lastly, Maschine hardware seems really well built and has fantastic tactile response. Everything is downloaded from NI. The software, owners' manual and all the other documentation is well written, straightforward and do a good job explaining all the concepts they dicuss. ... show more
