BPM versus Maschine (Native Instruments)

Any thoughts...I'm really looking for ease of use, I'm not a DJ or clubber, just looking for decent beats, electronic and acoustic and some industrial loops. I really need a physical outboard device since I might being playing live without a laptop.
Thanks,
D

I've got both, but I never use BPM anymore.

There are a couple of things it can do that I like (right-click for a range of patterns, for example) but on the whole, Maschine is a much better platform. Maschine has BPM beat in almost everything - libraries, overall feature set, ease of use, even stability.

If you have a specific question, I'm happy to try to answer it for you. I don't really have time to write a full comparative review of both products in response to a forum posting, but if you are after something specific, just ask and I will try to answer for you.

Hope that helps.

If you don't use a laptop I don't see how you're going to use any of those.
Maschine is not a standAlone unit.
