Awesome drum pad/ controller! Definitely worth it!

Awesome drum pad/ controller! Definitely worth it!
Debated about buying the Maschine MK3 or Akai MPC One. After researching, looking at forums, reddit, and Youtube reviews; I decided to give the Maschine brand a shot.I'm familiar with mostly DAWs such as Abelton and FL Studio and this was exactly what I was looking for. I bought the Arturia Mini MKII earlier this year and realized that the drum pads weren't as sensitive as I wanted.The product arrived exactly as advertised. Follow the instructions on the serial card to register your product and/or create a Native Instruments account if you don't have one. With all programs installed, it took up ~120 GB of storage (had to uninstall COD MW on my M.2 SSD lol). Completely satisfied with my new MK3 and would highly recommend getting it if you're on the fence about buying it. I know the price is definitely steep for entry level so consider getting the Maschine Mikro MK3 instead (I was close to buying it as well). The reason why I got the MK3 and not the Mikro Mk3 was due to the fact that sampling/slicing is a bit easier and I don't intend taking it anywhere outside of my home since the Pandemic's making most of us stay indoors.I'm still new to this type of device so other's might have a different opinion and I have yet explore other functionality. If you've been thinking about making music such lo-fi beats like me, go and spend it on something that's comfortable within your budget. Also, I bought a laptop stand to angle it for easier finger drumming but that's just me.Recommend checking out Jeff Gibbon's youtube channel, he has a Getting started and other Maschine tutorials.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing!
Reviewed in Canada on August 24, 2020
I decided to splurge and I am so thankful I did. This thing is great. It does take a day or two to get used to basic features (and a month to really appreciate everything this thing can do!), but the videos from Native Instruments and the community (look up Jeff Gibbons on YouTube for some great tutorials and inspiration) are super helpful and can get you going really quickly.

Pads feel great. Menu and screens are awesome and rather intuitive for moving around and selecting your sounds. Switches easily from pads to keyboard to chords and has a great key selection with Major, minor and modes plus extensions so you don’t have to worry if you’re not overly advanced at music theory.

If this is your first controller or experience with Native Instruments, know that this comes with a great suite of initial instruments and sounds plus Ableton Live Lite (which I started on and pushed me down the rabbit hole of music production).

Anyways, cannot recommend enough if you are looking for a pad based controller. It has more features than I have been able to wrap my head around so far, and I don’t think I will EVER outgrow its uses or capabilities.
