I was recently entertaining the idea of getting a pad controller, and did some online research. For the quality/sensitivity of the pads, the conclusion of a video group review I saw was that of the 'cheap' controllers, the Maschine Mikro mk3 was the best; the Presonus ATOM came next. For the very best in pad quality, you'd need to go for a (full) Maschine. Apparently, the Mikro mk3 had slightly less sensitive pads, and was occasionally prone to double triggers (whereas the full Maschine didn't). It's a shame really, as not everyone has the budget/space for a full Maschine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a shame really, as not everyone has the budget/space for a full Maschine. I have an -M-Audio Code 49 in which the pad sensitivity is really great, however, I had to adjust the sensitivity using the preset editor downloaded from the M-Audio website. The Mikro mk3 Pads can adjust and are really great as well. I used the demo it in Guitar Center to test it out first and that's where I enjoyed using MASCHINE. Since I have no experience with the MPC and MPD type of controller, I figured I would start off small with the Mikro mk3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anxiousmofo Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 The wife gave me the green light to buy the Komplete 12 update for my birthday, so I did. Kind of a no brainer, since Massive X is being released on my birthday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jesse g Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 Off to Wilmington Delaware on Saturday, June 29 to pick up my Maschine Mikro mk3. Why Delaware you may ask? Well I'm in PA about 25 minutes from Wilmington Delaware, so I'd rather order it online and pick it up at the store and pay no tax. Yes, I am very cheap. Once I register the Mikro MK3, Next I will order the MASCHINE 2 FACTORY LIBRARY UPGRADE for $49.50 while the 50% sale is on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
