Not sure myself, but I think in a few of the NI videos, the demonstrators say it like MAH SHEEN EH. Must be the German pronunciation?

In the english promo videos, and music shops, they've just been saying "Machine".
A control by any other name?

Have tried, it's very cool

I don't understand why some people pronounce it "Machina".
I'll trust the people working at NI, who pronounce it "Machine".

Well look at that. Apparently it's supposed to be "machin-uh" according to the developers. I guess the American NI folk say it wrong.
