From time to time we get questions about how to use UAD plug-ins within the standalone Maschine application, however, the main issue is that Maschine standalone does not offer full plug-in delay compensation which is a requirement for using UAD plug-ins in any host. Although Native Instruments Maschine is not an officially tested or supported DAW for UAD-2 / Apollo devices, it is capable of hosting VST (Mac & Windows) and AU (Mac only) format plug-ins.
