Native Instruments announces Machine 3.0, including stem separation technology

Native Instruments has updated the software for its long-running Maschine beatmaking and production device.

The new interface adds stem separation, allowing users to isolate vocals, instrumentals, drums, basslines and more, before re-sampling and chopping them up, without having access to the multi-track studio stems.

Maschine 3’s stem separation is powered by iZotope’s RX algorithms, and the new update also features iZotope’s Ozone 11 Elements. A new library called Maschine Central is also part of the new update, adding a total of 103 sample packs, 144 Kontakt instruments, and 204 synth presets. Native Instruments has also added Massive, Monark and Prism — three long-running NI synths — to Maschine 3.

While the Maschine 3.0 app does run standalone without the hardware, the dedicated hardware unit lets you get hands on in a more integrated way. Native Instruments is discounting the device for a limited period, with Maschine Mikro coming in at $199, Maschine MK3 at $499, and Maschine Plus — NI’s standalone device that doesn’t require a laptop — now priced at $999, $200 less than its previous retail price.

If you’re only interested in the software, the full bundle costs $99. Find out more about what’s new in Maschine 3 in the video below, and head to NI’s website for the full spec rundown. 

Native Instruments has been busy recently, having updated iZotope’s Neutron to version five last week, a company they acquired back in 2021.
