MASCHINE ESSENTIALS:
START THE BEAT

MASCHINE Essentials is powerful music software made with one thing in mind: Non-stop music creation. Build up beats, arrange ideas, and remix tracks using your sample collection with the built-in instruments and effects. And with MASCHINE’s powerful sculpting tools you can twist, transform, and fine-tune sounds to make them your own.

ESSENTIAL SOUNDS FOR ANY STYLE

Empty screens aren’t inspiring. That’s why MASCHINE Essentials comes with a selection of tasty kits, sounds, instruments, and effects that’ll get your creative juices flowing – plus editable patterns and projects for building ideas fast. So whether it’s head-nodding ‘90s hip hop, muscular, main-room techno, or celestial synth pop – you’ve got the ingredients to make it.

KEEP THE BEAT GOING

From building up loops, to sketching out tracks, MASCHINE keeps you moving along the creative process.

Ideas view makes it easy to gather your ideas. Record different bass lines, create scenes for different drum fills, breakdowns, and variations. Mix them up and experiment until you find something you like.

Use Arrange view to sequence your clips into a track. Edit patterns, nudge notes, change velocity, record modulation, and more.

Easily sort instruments and sounds by their sonic qualities with MASCHINE’s ultra-fast, tag-based browser – including all of your NKS-certified instruments and FX.

MASCHINE’s powerful mixer lets you see and adjust group and sound channel levels until you find the perfect balance in your track.

Use your own VST or Audio Unit plug-ins, or play with MASSIVE, MONARK, and REAKTOR PRISM, or any other included sounds and FX.

MASCHINE’s powerful Sampler and Audio plug-in lets you get creative with your sounds. Refine, shape, and chop samples – and play with loops creatively.

MASCHINE also works as a plug-in for Ableton, Logic Pro, Cubase or any other compatible DAW, making it a powerful addition to your setup, however you make music.
