Native Instruments announces new Maschine software. Find the PDF of the press release here:
If you notice in the release, there is no support for Maschine as an RTAS plug-in.

What does that mean? Anybody who’s using any version of Pro Tools prior to Version 10 is out of luck.
Will this have an impact on you as a music creator? If you have Pro Tools 9 or less, will you upgrade your Pro Tools rig to accommodate the new Native Instruments Maschine software?
