The MK3 is like what? 4 or 5 years newer than the Maschine Studio? And because of that, the MK3 has more HARDWARE features than the maschine Studio. I'm happy with my Studio and aren't mad the MK3 dropped soon after I purchased it because i personally love having all of those extra dedicated buttons. It's all about size and luxury if you will.

As an owner of the maschine studio, I personally would advise you to make your decisions based off of this.the ONLY reason why the Studio is 200 bucks more than the MK3 is souly just do you can have more dedicated buttons to push and not have to press "shift" so much.

Aside the keyboards and Komplete, I've been an owner of the maschine studio for a little over a year now, and owned mine only months before the MK3 dropped.

I've owned every piece of this gear except for the MK3.
