Been setting up my Mac and on midi mode & when using maschine 2 Pad 1 on the Maschine Mikro MK3 doesn't trigger

Need help

Thanks

 

Check Controller Editor for that pad's Channel, Note, Mode and LED settings and make sure it matches up with the other (working) pads.

 

If it's not sending a message and you are savvy you can open it up inspect the contact to make certain it isn't damaged and clean the contact by spraying it with canned air following that up with a microfiber q-tip and some isopropyl alcohol.

They probably build them as well as they can for how inexpensive they are, but they are not as good as they good they could be. I have more problems with my Novation and Native Instrument controllers than I do with with my older Roland and Korg stuff.

 

Same. Of course, older stuff was built to last.

 

Maschine Controllers are easy to disassemble. I'd try cleaning the contacts of the pads.

 

I might have confused myself with your question. Does that pad work ok in standalone mode and not in MIDI mode? Or does it not work at all?

 

I have tried it in Maschine 2, and also battery and on midi mode and it doesn't work

 

Just taken the back of the Maschine micro MK3 and it does look rather filthy, see the photograph

 

Hi, I took the plunge and cracked the Maschine Mikro MK3 and found a load of dirt and dust, so cleaned it out and also cleaned the contacts, plugged it back in and everything seems to work.

Thank you for recommending I dive into the inside of the Maschine

 

You are welcome.

Glad it worked out and thank you for letting everyone know how you fixed it.

It might be useful to someone in the future.
