01Overview

Expansion - Thirty was made to mark Native Instruments' 30th anniversary. It draws on highlights and lesser-known sounds from Reaktor, the Spotlight Series, the Play Series, Massive X and other releases, then resamples and reassembles them for Maschine. The result is a genre-spanning set of material that takes the company's older library in new directions, leaving the user free to choose where to take it.

What is inside the Thirty expansion

The expansion is built from Native Instruments' own legacy material, re-sampled for Maschine. It includes 30 Maschine kits, 89 loops, 291 drum samples and 85 one-shots.

The kits and loops cover a broad range of styles, since the source material spans many of the company's instruments and sound libraries. Because the sounds are resampled rather than reused as-is, they offer a fresh starting point while keeping a link to the original catalogue.

Loading and using the samples

Loops and samples from the expansion work in any DAW. The Maschine kits require the latest version of the Maschine software.

Native Instruments also recommends updating Battery 4, Massive, Monark, Reaktor Prism and Reaktor 6 or the Reaktor 6 Player. The expansion requires Massive. Loops and samples are accessible in the Kontakt 8 and Kontakt 8 Player browser and can be loaded directly into the Leap sampler.
