I think much Ableton users first of all will get in touch with Maschine due to the step-sequenzer feature and not due to the total performance posibillities. Maschine is a stand alone (sequenzing)tool with VST-Integration. So it was announced in some magazines.... If you only want a step-sequenzer buy MFL, save the half price of Maschine and get more than Maschine includes,... Just my 0,02 €

This thread is about how the APC 40 and the Maschine are different products made by different companies for vastly different price points and nobody except chris ott knew that and so he decided to share. He'd share his music, too, if we were a bit less hostile, Rave gets to hear it, I wish I was Rave.

What this thread was about:

...

For those looking for something a bit more straightforward to sink your teeth into I suggest you start a thread about how the arm light turns red when you click it and then when you click it a second time it ceases to be red.

funny.

Chris, we're just giving you a hard time. At least you raised a topic and made some fairly coherent points- its just that most people saw the comparison as apples to oranges.

I think the underlying idea is kind of interesting- lets take two ground breaking products and extrapolate the direction of production and performance technology today. Where you went awry is in comparing the two products and companies so directly and in making it a horse race when it really isn't.

If Ableton is to Apple as NI is to Microsoft, where is the Vista in all that?
