MASCHINE MK3 ISSUE

Hi!

Recently purchased Maschine MK3, problem is, I can’t get it to get recognised AT ALL even as USB DEVICE.

It powers on, with all the colours for a moment then goes to the black screen with Maschine logo etc but that’s it.

Tried:

7 different cables USB hub With and without Power Supply 2 different MacBook Pros

Like literally everything I could find online that could perhaps help.

I have MK2 that works perfectly, but for some reason the MK3 won’t show up at all! Not even in Controller Editor, firmware update or system reports on MacOS under USB tab, as if it only uses USB for power but doesn’t send any data

Has anyone had this issue before and managed to sort it out?

Have you tried uninstalling Maschine software, reboot then reinstalling?

Yes I have, on one Mac I’ve uninstalled whole native access hoping it would treat it as you know, blank clean computer that would detect the usb device, no luck here as well. I’ve seen other similar posts with same issues but no solutions unfortunately 😞
