I tried it again, this time, with the French support. Maybe I can try again? Thanks for the said: But they ask me for the box or the paper with the licence of the software.

Most of the time they will add the software to your account. You can create a native instrument account, then create a support ticket and tell 'm you bought a second hand controller. Most of the time they will add the software to your said: Without it, it is just a dumb midi controller. To use it as a step sequencer you need the maschine software. The software element runs as a standalone application or as an AU/VST/RTAS plugin, while the hardware is a controller for the Maschine software, and also functions as a generalpurpose MIDI controller. So if I understand correctly, the step sequencer is not standalone.Ĭorrect. Maschine is a beat-production workstation with builtin drum sequencing, sampling and loop slicing, and is the latest result of NI's initiative to build hybrid hardware and software instruments.


I bought the MK1 used as a controller for Ableton. Other than that couldn’t say, I have the software but not the hardware.
#Native instruments maschine mk1 drivers
I read that you have to use your MK1 as a plug in, but even though my drivers are installed, I do not see "Maschine MK1" in my list of plug in (under Native Instruments).ĭo you have the Maschine Software? I think that might be what they mean by the plugin, I could be wrong. When I press the STEP button on the MK1, nothing happen. Everything works except the step sequencer. I'm trying to use the step sequencer of my Maschine MK1 inside Ableton Live Lite 10 with the right template.
