maschine.rs is an open-source implementation of native instruments's USB HID
protocol for the maschine mk2 devices (and also the maschine mikro mk1).

current support is only for the maschine mikro mk2, though support for other
devices should be simple enough to add.

also it only runs on linux. if you're on win/mac you probably don't need this.

you'll need rustc and cargo to build/run. do this:

    $ cargo build --release
    $ cargo run --release /dev/hidraw0

replace `/dev/hidraw0` with the path to your mikro mk2. you may need to tweak
your udev permissions to have it accessible from your normal user account.

while running, you'll have an ALSA MIDI out port which will send MIDI events
(note on, note off, poly aftertouch) generated by playing the pads. also,
the pads will light up while being played. it's all quite fancy.

more devices and APIs (including some OSC for the buttons and screen) coming
soon enough. more OS support coming probably not (but hey, be my guest).
