Native Instruments just dropped a mega bomb for the masses. Maschine Studio is available to be purchased now on Native Instruments site. Native Instruments has taken Akai up on the challenge for software drum-machine supremacy. If the Maschine Studio does everything it’s advertised to do with no bugs, Akai is in serious trouble. The MPC Renaissance has been on the market for over a year and still has bugs. The software plugins that come with the Maschine Studio literally destroys the plugins for the MPC Renaissance. I’m sure Native Instruments will get the plugins working more flawlessly with the Maschine Studio software. Akai better watch out. Read more below..
Also Akai PS, hire more programmers!
