Native Instruments Maschine Mikro MkI Groove Production Studio

The Native Instruments Maschine Mikro MkI is a compact version of the first generation Maschine that eschews the bank of encoders and LCD displays. It still features the same great 16 pad layout and deep integration with the Maschine software though, making this a powerful, portable solution for beatmakers and EDM producers alike. From sequencing synths to slicing samples, the Maschine hybrid hardware-software approach has become a dominant force in modern electronic music production. While this first generation hardware has been succeeded by the mkII models, producers seeking entry into this powerful ecosystem on a budget should definitely check the Maschine Mikro mkI out.
