Native Instruments has released MASCHINE 2.4, which features deep integration with third-party plug-ins via Native Instruments Native Kontrol Standard (NKS) format, first introduced with KOMPLETE KONTROL. With NKS, supporting third-party products can pre-map their plug-in to MASCHINE’s hardware controls, as well as have their presets automatically appear within MASCHINE’s tag-based browser. This is a free update for registered users.
