native instruments komplete kontrol s61 mk2 manual

Every time I try to use it, I end up looking for basic functionality tips in the 700 pages manual, which is quite dense as it mixes windows/macOS recipes with controller recipes.

Contextual/interactive help: nonexistent, not even a message saying your copy command actually did something.Let me say that I talk about basic functionality: events, patterns, effects, arrangements… not comparing with bitwig grid, sample slicing, or any other advanced feature: These are some of the things I think are contributing to this frustration.

I basically bought it because, in a thread in this forum, many people were saying the Maschine is highly productive and helped to finish songs.Īlthough I like the hardware part of Maschine (the pads, the big screens…), I keep getting frustrated every time I try to use it, both with the Maschine software, or as a controller for Bitwig. Meanwhile, I bought some more hardware, including the Machine mk3. After a while, I wanted to use try using the computer to make music, and I tried a lot of DAWs before finally buying Bitwig. When I started producing music ~3 years ago, I got a DT. Here there are many people that use and like the Maschine, and I’d like to contrast our experiences. I’m growing frustrated with my Maschine mk3 and the Maschine Software, and want to share my experience.

I’m reviving this topic because I think this is the most generic Maschine mk3 topic in the forum.
