It's 2024 - And this video has really helped me with my new Maschine Plus.... So much information and technique packed into just under forty minutes! I've rewatched sections of this video dozens of times. Thank you 😊

One thing I think almost all of these tutorials miss: Before starting anything else, demonstrate the process of loading sounds onto a pad, step by step. It's a basic workflow thing that could be easily missed by someone new to this. If you don't know that, you're going to be successful in getting the first sound on the pad, but you're going to end up overwriting the first sound with the second sound. That threw me and I ended up having to stop and go look it up. Another thing a lot of these tutorials miss is how to make menus screens 'stick'. If you haven't activated the "stay" toggle on any of the screens, they're just going to flip back to the plug-in screen when they release it. For those who need to know this, while holding Scene, or Pattern, or Events, or Variation, you'll see a button on the top left labeled the same name of the button you're holding. Press that button and you'll see it "turn-on". That means anytime you now go into that view, it will stay locked until you press the view button (Scene, Pattern, etc) again. If you don't want it to lock anymore, hold the view button and press the upper left toggle again and it will un-fill. Hope this helped.

Really awesome project breakdown and walk thru. Really appreciate it. Can’t wait to apply what you’ve shown to my setup as a first time Maschine+ user.

Nice! I literally just got Maschine+ yesterday. I’ve been a MPC user since the MPC3000 and haven’t used Maschine in years. I had a Maschine Studio but went back to my MPC1000 and hardware synths moving over to the Live about 2 years ago. I was really excited about being able to use the excellent NI sounds without having to use a computer but was worried that I’d be stifled by the workflow. Your excellent video has alleviated my fears. Thank you so much!

Swear this dude used to be my NI rep at work! Wild.

Wow, I just learned SOOOOOO much.... definitely ordering mine..

This is great! I have the plus and love it. I also have a lot of faith that the future is really bright for the unit as they continue to open up the stand-alone ability to use various NI instruments and plugins etc. My only real beef with it is they dropped the ball by not including a battery. Even if there was a detachable accessory that you could bring on the go that you had to buy seperate, id be cool with it. Just kind of sucks having to get third party stuff to make it truly portable. Outside of that, I think the hype around speakers and a touch screen is overblown. Speakers are cool but they add size and even if they "bump" they aren't going to be great for mixing etc. Touch screen does come in handy when naming patters and events, but outside of that the NI workflow is still super fast and intuitive without it.

Merci… Sûrement l’un des meilleurs tutoriels (même en anglais…😜) que j’ai pu voir… C’est rapide, efficace, avec des conseils géniaux!!! Je suis impatients d’en voir d’autres sur MASCHINE MK3 ou + Bravo… 👏👏👏👏👏

I learned so much, great video

At 18:04 on the top left there is a recommendation to use the arrows to select indivitual notes. I find it muuch handier to scroll the encoder to the note because 1. It's faster than tapping the arrow and 2. My hand is already in place so i can nudge the sound left/right with the encoder. I have seen multiple Maschine MK3 and + review that list selecting the notes with the arrows as a negative but they don't mention the encoder. For me at least selecting a few notes to nudge/edit is much faster with the encoder than with a mouse.

great tutorial!

Go for the real stuff, Akai Force!!

Great video! Has been really helpful. Having trouble with the Variation mode, though, at about 38 minutes. I do everything you do and instead of shuffling four notes, it generates a whole mess of notes, like maybe 30 or 40 notes. It's a big mess. I've gone over and over it but can't get it to just modify 3 or four notes. I know this video is a couple years old now, but it has helped me get up to speed with Maschine+. This has been my only snag. Or maybe one of your subscribers will know what's going on. Cheers!

a little fast but you covered alot. Thank you.

realy good tutorial.

Is there a way to record a jam with the patterns in ideas mode into the song view? Also is there a way to convert a single group pattern into a clip within a section that has more than 1 group?

Love this. Can you record effects as it plays through on song mode. Would be cool to do the basic arrangement and add effects and automation as it plays through

Very good vid! i say very cooo all the time now 😂😎

Great video thanks I just bought a Maschine mk3 I want learn about chord progression 😀👍🏻🎸

hello do you have a video on routing to external interfaces

Most useful training video about Maschine+ on the web. Thanks for your hard word. One question, maybe you can help me: when I apply an effect to a pattern, I get the same effect for the other patterns in the same group. I'm sure I'm doing something wrong, but if you can suggest how to do it, I'd appreciate it.

@Noisegate

3 жыл бұрын

Thanks very much!! All effects that are applied to a group will affect all sounds within that selected group simultaneously. Meaning that if you apply FX on a group level to group A - it will affect all of your sounds within group A etc...

hi sorted out the Velocity thing but how you get events button to stay on and variation to stay on all the time as my unit doesn't do that

Hi Noise gate , I have one question for you ? when I use step sequencer mode say for instance I am programming in shakers when I start to program them in they all are at 5 velocity on machine 3 which is annoying do you know how to change this value so they are all around the 80 mark Many Thanks Great tutorial

Hey guys i just got mine but...if i turn Machine+ off...is it always in standby mode flashing in red? TX you all PS i dont want that lol i want it completely off

Waiting for the deep dive into song mode still

Great vid! Would of been nice if you told us what kit you were using, so I could follow along as I am a newbie on maschine plus.

Is it possible to rename the pattern and scenes . In standalone mode

@epicon6

3 жыл бұрын

There is a renaming function on the +. I know you can rename a project, so i would think you can rename patterns and scenes too. It's done by scrolling the wheel for letters so it isn't really fast but an essential feature still.

I'll stick with MPC live 2....this is sooo confusing.

Thanks for sharing this video but the more I look at drum machines the more I realize how much they suck, First you have to be a computer engineer just to use it . But the real problem is that they still sound like a cheap toy after all that programming . I think the biggest hurdle for musicians doing home recording is to find good drum tracks, hopefully in the future they'll improve .

Hi Miles, to the right of the large encoder there is a button that says 'Tempo'. When this is engaged use the encoder to change the BPM of your project.

Why they put the Red Cross symbol is beyond me... a white plus would have done it. Emergency production kit?

I'm scared to buy Maschine+ because if my unit shows up defective I can't return or get it replaced. Too many horror stories.

@nickgilday8946

3 жыл бұрын

From what I understand most of the horror stories were solved after the first update. I got mine about 6 weeks ago, use it daily, and have had no issues whatsoever. CPU never gets about 50 percent or so and doesn't effect performance. Only time I have had any issues whatsoever is when I'm using a power bank to supply power, and the bank is running low, the unit doesn't perform as well.

OMG way too fast. Not a get started video at all. This is so advanced without any basics given. Slow down and show how to use each function. It was very difficult to follow as you are jumping all over the place. Not a beginner video. Very advanced. I think this machine plus is only for an advanced sound engineer

Man Native instruments absolutely ruined Maschine by turning it into a vessel to sell their expansions. The priority of the Maschine is clearly preset packs, it’s cumbersome to load your own samples and you can only have a 2 folders hierarchy, which means everyone would have to reorganize all of their samples to be no more than 2 folders deep in order to use them on machine plus, where as it’s extremely easy to buy their preset packs and navigate through them quickly. Same with the synth implementation, they allowed the ability to load synths in standalone yet made the ability to program the synths very cumbersome again hearing towards people who just want to play presets and maybe make minor adjustments. Real musicians who want to use their own samples and program their own patches are left in the dust. Native made a professional instrument but overloaded it beginner features. It’s not supposed to be a preset machine it’s supposed to be a drum machine/sampler for musicians and creatives who want to actually create their own stuff. It’s a shame because I was really excited to get a stand alone mashine but now I’ve got to find something else. Even the SP404mk2 is more geared towards real musicians. Native have really tanked
