Native Instruments expanded their Maschine universe a couple of weeks ago with 2 new models, a slew of Technicolor accessories – and a whole new version of the software. Machine 1.8 is now available for download in the Service Center.
Not only that – as promised, NI have given registered users a complete copy of their synth package Massive too. You should receive an email to your registered address with the serial number and a download link in due course.
The Service Center does seem to be creaking under the load right now. I know it’s hard, but you might want to leave it a little while before trying it. Happens every time a new release comes out.
Some official words:
The free MASCHINE 1.8 update is now available. And starting with MASCHINE 1.8, all MASCHINE owners also get the legendary MASSIVE for free*, adding powerful synthesis to the premier groove production studio.
The MASCHINE 1.8 update is compatible with all versions of MASCHINE and MASCHINE MIKRO, not only the new MK2 hardware. Open the Native Instruments Service Center now to download and install your free update.
