Native Instruments Maschine MK2 with Komplete 12 Ultimate

Full Description

Native Instruments Maschine MK2

Perform in colour

The new colour-coding lets you 'see' your sounds, and it will turbo-charge your workflow. Simply assign colours to the groups, sounds, patterns, and scenes, and see the pads and group buttons on the hardware light up in the same colours. Make your kick drums red, for example, and you'll always know which pads play your kicks. Add some colour to your performances!

With the increased sensitivity of the new pads, you also have a new level of precision at your fingertips.

New master section

The Master section has also been revamped. Control volume, tempo and swing with the new multifunction master push encoder - select modes with the new toggle buttons and accurately click through values without having to look at the screen or display.

Navigating and scrubbing is much easier, and changing note pitch and detailed tweaking becomes extra-precise thanks to the encoder's superb physical response.

Now with 47 (normally white), backlit click-buttons and coloured transport controls, the Mk2 hardware provides a wealth of physical and visual excitement for intuitive beat making.

Time stretch and pitch shift

The MASCHINE software includes time stretch and pitch shift capability. Stretch smoothly from one BPM to another, aided by the automatic BPM detection. Or stretch your audio to a specific length - to fit one sample to the same length as another, for example.

What's more, make your beats match harmonically, by tuning your samples with the pitch shift function.

Premium-grade effects

The latest free software update includes new effects, specially selected for beat production. TRANSIENT MASTER, NI's hugely popular dynamics and mixing effect, has now been fully integrated into the MASCHINE.

The New Sound

Step into the future of digital sound synthesis. Massive X is here. And it is monumental. From the impressive GUI which facilitates deeper sound design to the colossal sound - vibrant, room shaking, and experimental. Massive X provides sonic freedom on an unprecedented scale.

At the centre of Massive X's design you will find a brand new oscillator section which is capable of producing a huge array of sounds. Featuring 170 wavetables and 10 different reading modes. It's a great starting point for the sound design process.

Route any output to any input to experiment with your sound. Bypass, feedback, and send audio wherever you like. And you can draw precise patterns in the performer section for complex patches that evolve over time. This is expressive synthesis at its best.

Massive, Kontakt 6, TRK-01 and new effects

Komplete 12 Ultimate includes brand new additions to the vast catalogue of premium-grade virtual instruments and effects. Massive X (available June 2019) is the latest version of the renowned wavetable synthesizer, featuring expanded functionality, providing improved sound design capabilities.

Kontakt 6 is also included, the latest version of the powerful virtual sampler. Kontakt 6 has also been updated with a new GUI (Graphical User Interface) making navigating between sounds and settings easier than ever before.

TRK-01 bases its sound and design on classic drum machines from history. The TRK-01 combines classic mixing techniques, sequencing and innovative sound design to deliver powerful kick-bass combos.

Six new effects plugins are also included including Choral, Flair, Phasis, Freak, Bite and Dirt. These premium-grade effects take your sound design capabilities to the next level. The effects are comprised of cutting-edge chorus, flanger and phaser effects with groundbreaking features for unique tonal characteristics.
