![]() ![]() Keeping the electronics dry during transportation is essential, but there are alternatives to polystyrene padding, which I hope will be used in the future. I was a bit disappointed to see NI using polystyrene packing, along with another layer of plastic to bag up the hardware. ![]() Opening the box up, you get everything you need to get started (which isn’t much, admittedly). We’ve already spoken about plastic waste in the music industry, so I applaud the Maschine team for that ecologically inclined sentiment. ![]() Replaced by naked corrugated card packaging with minimal printing and a couple of stickers stuck on.įor Native Instruments, the change to the new look was partially driven by a desire to be a bit more “eco-friendly, saving on paint, and also cost-savings to the end customer”, to quote. Gone is the glossy full-colour box with comically oversized quick-start guide. First impressionsīefore we go into whats IN the box, lets talk about how the Mikro is packaged. The third revision of the compact, fully bus powered, portable hardware/software hybrid that includes the full Maschine 2.7 groove software, featuring a multi-touch strip, larger velocity-sensitive RGB pads, and a new design. How well does the compact hybrid controller cosy up with your set up for playing other people’s music? In a nutshell With that said, I think we’ve set the tone for how this review approaches the Maschine Mikro MK3.
