Native Instruments Maschine Mikro

MASCHINE MIKRO is the perfect entry into the world of MASCHINE.

MASCHINE MIKRO is a professional music production tool, combining the flexibility of software with the immediacy of hardware. Create rhythms, bass lines, chords and melodies, and build tracks on-the-fly with the intuitive, clip-based sequencer. MASCHINE MIKRO also gives you a high-performance sampler, professional effects and full support for VST and Audio Units plug-ins. What's more, you can also run MASCHINE MIKRO as a plug-in in your DAW.

Pro Production and Performance

If you are a user of iMASCHINE - NI's on-the-go beat sketchpad for the iPhone and iPod Touch - you can import your iMASCHINE projects to MASCHINE MIKRO to finish your ideas in your home studio. Clever shortcuts on the MIKRO hardware controller provide quick access to key functions in the MASCHINE software, which are also easily accessed via the computer's mouse and keyboard.

The Inspiring Maschine Library

More than 6 GB of production-ready samples, patterns, and effects for all styles, with drums and basses plus dynamic synth and instrument sounds - many created by renowned artists and producers - and a range of dynamic studio-quality effects are included. Select sounds using MASCHINE MIKRO's super-simple browser and start playing immediately. And if you need even more, get an extra boost for your library with MASCHINE EXPANSION.

Sampling & Sequencing

MASCHINE MIKRO is based on a high-performance sampler, allowing audio recording of internal or external sources (sound card required), and precise sample playback. With MASCHINE MIKRO you can easily create and arrange patterns using the built-in sequencer which operates in two modes - XOX drum machine step sequencer and MPC®-style live recording
