native instruments maschine mk1 ot mikro mk2

Hi all soon I will buy native instruments maschine.My budget is limited so I need to buy on ebay or or to look on other on other pages used goods.So the big problem is that I need to decide wich maschine will buy.Could you help me and tell wich is better to buy maschine (mk1) or mikro maschine (mk2) and why.

I prefer the full size Maschine. I like to have the eight encoders and both screens, as I work mainly on the hardware as opposed to in the software.

Maschine mk2 > original Maschine > Mikro mk2 > Mikro

I say full size too, it’s nice having those knobs. If you can’t afford a full sized MKII, maybe just keep saving for a little bit.

MK1 full size!

The extra knobs and not having to use SHIFT + for every other function is great.

PLUS, I’m not a fan of the “super knob”

That’s a good suggestion as well.

Not to be semantic, but I don’t think the encoders are “extra” on the full-size Machine so much as missing from the Mikro.
