Advancing the same seamless hardware-software integration found throughout the world of MASCHINE, MASCHINE JAM not only enhances music production with existing MASCHINE hardware, but also with DAWs, NKS-ready plug-ins, and the KOMPLETE range of software and hardware. MASCHINE JAM offers versatile workflow designed to swiftly capture and develop creative ideas using tactile step sequencing and touch-sensitive performance controls for the latest MASCHINE 2 software. Here’s the press release, fresh in our inbox… Native Instruments announces MASCHINE JAM production and performance systemīerlin, Septem– Native Instruments today announced MASCHINE JAM – the modern production and performance system created for fluid, intuitive track sketching and the latest member of the MASCHINE family. You can watch the promo video that‘s been published with the news, and does a decent job of running through the features: There are eight dual-touch ‘smart strip’ faders, with LED strips to control parameters, but unlike Ableton’s Push or the other Maschine hardware, there are no screens. The hardware sports the typical Native Instruments industrial design, with 8 x 8 grid of click buttons front and centre (these aren’t velocity sensitive, but can have an ‘accent’ mode to change the MIDI value). The JAM is named aptly after it’s intended function: to be used for sketching musical ideas within the Maschine software. While it’s so far mostly been the usual product updates (with the exception of Roland’s 909 Day event), Native Instruments have come out with a new Maschine controller that (mostly) came out of nowhere. BEHOLD… the MASCHINE JAM (all-caps theirs), which is most definitely not an Ableton Push nor Livid Base. We’re fast swinging into BPM weekend, and the new product announcements have been flowing in thick and fast.
