Andrew,

Been using Maschine for 4 years or so. Always loved my Mk1 with the 1.8 software. Recently bought the Studio and all I can say is WOW! What an upgrade. The hardware is amazing, better pads and knobs. The displays are excellent. The workflow has improved as the 2.2 software takes it to another level. I actually do not look at my monitor screen at all. I have been using Ableton Push but after getting the Studio Push is on EBay. This is the best controller I have ever owned and I have had many. Highly recommended.

Been buying Novation gear for many years, bought a Supernova 15 years ago and had a Launchpad, Nocturn etc,and one thing that stands out is the build quality. The Audio Hub is no different. And believe me this thing is loud!! I have it set up with Balanced cables and decent monitors and it just keeps going up and up. Sound quality is top shelf, and you won't find better for the price. The USB hub is very handy and high quality. You can't plug a mic or guitar into this but you can connect RCA with HI/Lo gain. Very LOUD headphone out. All round great device. I would happily pay £200+ for this.
