Very good Video for CUbase Maschine Users! You can drag and drop into one midi part. Just go into cubase preferences under midi import and do import to one part the you don´t have all the other midi channels created.
Very useful video, great stuff man! I did this before when I got Micro MK2 a couple of years ago. Now I got MK3 and while reading the manual, I was having a look back again at tutorials too, just to refresh my mind. I stopped here to this new tutorial that impressed me 'cause this is exactly the kind of integration I did and my way to use it, with the only difference that I use 2 instances of Maschine, one with a single group as a drum machine and one with multiple groups as a sampler. in order to achieve 16 separate outs for the drums and the same for the sampler. So I ask to you, one thing that I've never been able to do: with this setup, if for some reason I create a new group and want to record something but INSIDE the Maschine's sequencer, what happens is that as I press record on Maschine's hardware, it records everything coming in, and automatically changing groups focus. Is there someway to avoid this? Have you never tried this? Thanks in advance for your attention and for your good input to the Maschine community :) Peace!
Hey D thanks for this cubase/maschine tutorial. Im having a hell of a time setting this up for some reason. I would love to know how you have all drums record on seperate midi tracks as i use maschine mostly for drums in cubase. Any help would be very much appreciated.
It's all there in the video... you can go to the official NI forum where i also posted this tutorial in written form, maybe its easier for you to follow, i can also answer questions there a lot easier than on youtube. The link is on the description.
You did a very good thing making this video. Thank you. I'm very very irritated however that NI still hasn't, in the two years since, updated Maschine with at least a template to do all this. If we can all go in and do this stuff, and they definitely know that people want to run Maschine this way in their DAW, why the f**k didn't they just have their programmers do all this stuff, and in Preferences have "Cubase Integration Setting"? It would literally have taken them 15 minutes, as your video illustrates. The part that really infuriates me is that if you use a general midi controller to record a Maschine track in Cubase, it *just works*. None of those steps from the video, no routing, no nothing - it just works. Which again, means NI could have set up the Maschine controller the same way. Completely insane.
I'm having a problem with my maschine Studio. When I change Destination to "host" and in Cubase I change All Midi Inputs to Maschine - Out I can record and hear it well when it's already recorded BUT when I play with Maschine it sounds DOUBLE. Weird thing is, if I change to All Midi Inputs and I play it with the keyboard, it does sound normal and it records. I don't really know what to do... but this is driving me nuts!
When using this method recording to Maschine-VST is not a viable option anymore, you have to record to the MIDI track on the DAW... If you're transferring the MIDI to the DAW to arrange there's no reason to record to Maschine. If you ant to keep MIDI in Maschine-VST then theres no need to MIDI route and have this trouble, just route the audio.
Thanks for this awesome tutorial, D-One. Q: Did anyone manage to get this 100% working with #Bitwig DAW? All is fine on my Mac (Bitwig 2.2, Maschine 2.7) but the Maschine to Bitwig MIDI routing for live recording in DAW is not working - just DAW to Maschine.
Hey, just a quick word to thank you, I have developed a template based on your explanations to get Cubase to work with Maschine and Elgato's Stream Deck. The upgrade in terms of workflow ease and speed is just insane. I use the Stream Deck to call track archives and launch packs of VSTi tracks with just the push of a button. For those who don't know, the drag & drom MIDI exchange between Cubase and Maschine can be puzzling if you don't set Cubase to import MIDI files as a single track in your preferences.
I have watched dozens of Maschine integration videos for Live, LPX and this is the first one to make real sense. Most are just concerned with drums. Great job! Thanks so much.
Wonderful tutorial! Quick question - is there a way to do this the other way around? If you have a finished Cubase project - could you then go into Maschine and make a more interactive and live friendly version? Thanks!
This is the most complicated it can get and not recommended for beginners. You can just route audio channels or use audio drag and drop from Maschine for example.
i have watched loads of tutorials on ths and YOURS is the best and easiest to understand. Thank you so much, recently bought maschine mk3 and getting nowhere with it, until NOW!!! THANKS MAN, GREAT JOB!!
And now you can use the drum editor for the drum tracks in cubase. Just select a drum map in the inspector like shown in this video: ruclips.net/video/I6_BxitjBxI/видео.html
I can't get Maschine to pop up it's not On the blacklist I've added them but when I add an instrument track the Native Instruments tab Pops up with a plus sign but nothing that's all
Maybe you've already figured it out but at 10:55 you can get rid of this annoying behaviour in Cubase preferences MIDI/MIDI File , "Import" pannel you just check the box "import dropped files as single part"
Thx thx thx................this is perfeckt workflow (sooooooooo lang) for a realy good intutitiv producing!!!Greatings from germany to Dr. Maschine :) for the controll editor i whish me good or usefull ideas i don´t know wich way i can with this application,if u need a idear for more tut videos
Thank you for this. Fantastic tutorial! Did you ever get to making a video about templates as you stated you were going to do? Trying to get it so every time I turn Maschine on, it's ready to go with Cubase. Thanks again.
Hello :) While attempting to make a template with no sounds so they can added later I realized it makes very hard to explain and test in a video so the viewer can be sure its working if there are no sounds.... So im trying to figure out a way of doing it that wont confuse users who arent used to routing MIDI. Im also considering to just make a bunch of different templates for several scenarios that people can just download and modify.
It could be a million things, impossible to guess or help you thru a youtube comment section... I suggest you click the NI official forum link in the description, on a forum i can help you, you can send me your project and i'll look for errors if you want.
Nice one - I am thinking of getting a Maschine Studio as my fiurst "drum controller" beenm doing Cubase for 15 years now. I currently have a Nektar panorama P1 but it's not that handy for mixing. Can you map the transport controls onto the Maschine interface?
Hello. Yeah, the Studio is able to control transport on Cubase, by default you have: Play, Stop, Loop On/off, rewind and fast-forward, the record button will still control Maschine Software but you can remap a button to enable record, also fully switch the unit to MIDI Mode. In MIDI mode there are templates to fully control the mixer and many other things (MCU). Just be aware that if you buy Maschine Studio to have it work as a drum instrument like Battery in DAW only you will be missing on most of what it can do. If you're ok with that it can be a good investment.
No problem! :) Probably never, inserting a complex sequencer inside a DAW will always require routing, its almost like putting a mini-DAW inside the DAW. This is the most complicated it can get and not recommended for beginners. You can just route audio channels or use audio drag and drop from Maschine for example, that's what most people do.
That makes sense for someone willing to change to Ableton or already using it. Push is a dedicated controller so nothing can beat it for ease of use and advanced control. For a Cubase user not interested in switching his DAW, a Push won't even work afaik, so there's that... Wish you the best and thanks for commenting! 👊🏼
Hi my friend! Thanks for the video! when you multi out put on maschine, you lose all the FX from the group chain, right? Is there a way to overcome this? I feel I lost a a huge ammount of good processing on those kits when multi outputing and I don't know if I just need to replace this FX chain inside cubase or really start from scratch each piece from the kit. Thanks!
Yes. Outputting the Pad/Sounds bypasses Group and Master FX. The lib/expansions usually have simple Group FX like Limiters or Maximizers, it's easy to make a bus/broup on the DAW and replicate it with stock Cubase plugs.
Mashine Mikro Mk3.You skip highly important very first step.How Mashine appear in Cubase.I have Mashine Mikro MK3 and Cubase 5. I can Not see Mashine in my Instrument Plug-in box I try many ways to HOOK UP (setup) Mashine to Cubase but Mashine simply not exist in Cubase Can you help me understand that issue Thank you. Win10,Cubase5,Mashine Mk3
Thank you D-One. There are a load of videos claiming to explain this, but yours seems to be the clearest. Having said that, there is no excuse for NI to not make a simple drag and drop feature from Maschine to DAW - at the moment it's needlessly long-winded, tiresome and old fashioned - and I'm saying this five years after you uploaded the video and yet they STILL haven't done it!
No prob, thanks! Well, they cant guess how you want things configured so it can't really be automatic, unless 'options' are removed and you forced to stick with whatever workflow NI thinks is best 🤷♂
Hey, I tried it with your project but unfortunately it doesn´t work really. Ok, if i record something new via your KEYS 1 and KEYS 2, it works, but for the BASS not. It records the midi notes but you can´t hear it afterwards. If I copy/ paste the recorded midi notes from the BASS to KEYS 1 or 2, there it works. It´s hard ;-)
Hi. My fault, on the Bass SOUND - MIDI input source I forgot to set "Host", make that small change and it will work. Sorry for the mistake, i will update the file. image.prntscr.com/image/BgsAcOxqTreSqfWBiW5dTg.png
Not using the nets to spread hate and bullshit, no Illuminati? Oldschool help and comprehensive advice? Thanks a bunch for the great work and effort! 🐻👌🏻🕹🎶
Thanks Man Big Question it has Changed in Newer Cubase like 9.5 and the this Way You Set Up in Maschine 2 mk3 i Got it to Set Up and Work With One Shot Drum Samples BUT i Cant Figuer Out How To Get Chopped Samples to Translate to midi Notes i Need every individual Chop to Have its own Midi Note and it is Not Working Man if you can help That Would Be Awesome Thanks For the video
Great Tut. What I would love to do is set 16 MIDI tracks in Cubase that correspond to the 16 pads in a regular group. I wish to record onto Cubase tracks while hitting the maschine pads and the midi recording onto each cubase MIDI channel at once. Is this possible? So basically it's turning each Cubase midi channel into a corresponding pad in Maschine. If I multi-select each Cubase MIDI channel and record MIDI, I can do multi MIDI recording no?
Yeah. Just set each pad to output to a MIDi channel corresponding to a DAW MIDI track, then enable Record on all those MIDI tracks.. Should be easy based on this tutorial. If you need help you can reach me on the official NI forum, I am a mod there. It's kind of hard to help in YT comments.
Thanks for this just what I needed. I am have problems with recoding and playing back within Cubase. Some of the pads are triggering 2 sample when I record, then when I play back those pads (samples) are not playing. It seems although I have the start note at c3, it's actually place a different note in cubase. Can anyone help?
Helping you thru a comment section is gonna be hard. If you want I can take a look at your project and spot where you messed up, I am a mod in the NI forum and easy to find, link in the description.
Also I wanted to ask what's the purpose of the "drumkit" mode for the Group MIDI input. I was under the impression it does exactly what you show here for your first group in a single click except it's pretty much useless as soon as you have at least another group because when in drumkit mode the group receives MIDI on all channels indifferetnly. Am I right?
Hi Sam. Yeah, basically. Drumkit mode is mainly for the Komplete Kontrol Keyboards, it can work for some other situations but it has no MIDI channel selection so if you set it in a DAW there's no way separate things... It also has no Group transpose so you're stuck with the way Maschine maps it's pads (starts on C1 while most DAW start on C3)
Well... Yeah. This is as complicated as it can get tho, you can just route the Audio channels to keep it simple, or use the Audio drag-and-drop button, that's what most people do.
All the drums are one-shot samples. If you mean a sliced sample into a single Pad for more than 16 slices then it's the same as routing an instrument shown in the video.
Hi please help me. At the very beginning when you select maschine from the drop down instrument menu ,when I do this maschine does not appear ? I’ve re installed everything through the native instruments app and it just won’t appear. It won’t give me the option to select it as an instrument track please help thanks
Go thru the typical steps of debugging why the plugin does not show up: Check your Plugins path folder, see if it is there where it should be. Check if Cubase is not blacklisting the plugin. Manually delete the Maschine VST and reinstall. if all fails ask in the NI forum or google it.
Hello Wizmos. Things haven't changed enough for a whole new video but i have a written an updated guide filled with pictures on the NI Official forum, it should be even easyer to follow along than the video, link is here: www.native-instruments.com/forum/threads/tutorial-cubase-maschine-routing-integration.317162/
I founded and everything working perfect now ,great tutorial on your page,i've seen also now Komplete Kontrol have integration with Cubase which is awesome,thanks a lot for help mate as i can't find better tutorial here,cheers!
Have you ever ran into a deal where you have MACHINE 2--that you paid for--and one day a demo version shows up on your MAC it has taken over--I only get 30 min. of work and I can;t save my work--How would I get rid of the demo---THANKS
@@D-One Thanks man I have tried that--but the demo has captured my access code--really strange--uninstall does not work--because NI may have stuff hid else where--BUT I THANKYOU FOR YOUR TIME---PEACE
That is what I needed! Thank you very much for this video! Unfortunately I have the same problem as Ruidos Rados. I have watched your tutorial several times and I am sure I didn´t miss anything. Everything works like in your tutorial but if have recorded some sounds from Maschine in Cubase, I can not listen to them afterwards (even I can see the recorded notes). If I drag and drop some midi from Maschine into Cubase, this problem does not appear, everything works and I can listen to it. Please help, otherwise I have to jump out of the window ;-)
I recorded it multiple times but was never satisfied, so never released it. I think I found an easy way to do/explain it and might release a vid next week.
Hi. In Cubase 10.5 the right Tone doesn't get exported via MIDI. When I change the Tone in the Piano roll and Drag it into Cubase. Any Ideas how to fix this ? thx
You have to configure the correct transpose setting in Sound > MIDI > Output, it's covered in the guide so you must have missed it. recheck your settings.
If you want... Or you can save the Cubase project as a template and replace the sounds each time your start a new project, which will be a lot more practical if you have sort of a fixed workflow.
Help me again me pls :) When I'm in browse mode (browse button on) and load a sample into a pad, (Maschine Studio) no midi signal came out when I tap the pads and cannot record nothing. When exiting browse mode (browse button off) I have midi signal and can record sounds and instruments. In other video I saw this is not happen. What is wrong with my settings ? I have maschine 2.7.8 R540. Thanks !
Hi. Nothing wrong with your settings, that's expected behavior, you have to exit the hardware browser to be able to record. Maybe it was possible before, but right now it isn't. :S
There's gotta be a better way around this? everytime we set up anew project all this needs to happen before we can start actually getting creative? I feel tired already just thinking about it
Theres no other way, unless you want to do something very simple then DrumKit mode might be enough. You don't have to do it every time, you can save it as a template.
@@D-One I might have to give it another shot then, I've only just got my self into the world of maschine as I really like NI and I thought this would just help me lay down grooves a lot quicker so I can get to the more important parts of my projects quicker - creating the melodies and basslines, but honestly man I'm finding maschine pretty unintuitive, I'm not sure if I'm just set in my ways but every time I try pick it up my creative flow goes out the window from all the menu hopping ,shift clicking and fumbling around. It's Stressed me out something ridiculous this week to the point where I've done zero producing.
I don't see "maschine 2" when i try to add it to a instrument track. How do I tell my cubase how to find it? - Cubase 10 Elements and Maschine 2 with MK3.
Check if Maschine VST is installed in the correct Plugin folder, if not then reinstall Maschine, if that doesn't work the in Cubase check Devices > Plugin Manager and see if Maschine 2 is blacklisted for some reason.
This works brilliantly, except all midi I record into the Cubase sequencer (using Maschine to play the part) is stuck at 127 velocity. Is it possible to record midi into the Cubase sequencer but with variable velocities?

Thanks bro ! One of the best FREE tutorials I have seen for cubase/Maschine integration - and I have seen a lot
Thank you very much Savadious!
When I go to group/input/Midi it looks nothing like that, only routings-option which is "Off" what am I doing wrong?
Very good Video for CUbase Maschine Users!
You can drag and drop into one midi part.
Just go into cubase preferences under midi import and do import to one part the you don´t have all the other midi channels created.
Oh, i see. thanks for the info! 👍🏽
No problem, I have posted your tutorial in a german forum too hope this is ok for you ;-) .
Of course, thanks for that!

Great delivery. Nicely paced, well annotated and edited. Thanks for taking the time to explain this to peeps.
Thanks so much 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Great!Thanks! Very good idea to leave those pictures of routing it's very helpful!
No problem. Yeah, that way you can just pause the video if needed and take your time changing the settings. :)

Dopeee bro. Im running out and buying Maschine thanks to your vid. I see its easy to integrate it, thanks.
You did a very good thing making this video. Thank you.
I'm very very irritated however that NI still hasn't, in the two years since, updated Maschine with at least a template to do all this.

Even though I don't hear English well.This is enough to understand.
Ahaha. Glad I could help out! :)
Great tutorial! Keep up the Great work! I just liked and Subscribed!
Thanks. Really helpful. Thanks for taking the time.
i can't see Maschine in add instr. in cubase i have 11 now cubase12 ?????? HELP
I can't click on my maschine stop / play / record buttons to start / stop / recording in Cubase. Why???
Wonderful tutorial! Quick question - is there a way to do this the other way around? If you have a finished Cubase project - could you then go into Maschine and make a more interactive and live friendly version? Thanks!
I just recently set this up with my Maschine Mikro and cubase 12. Its a game changer !! Thanks for the great work :)
This worked for me thank you! But one question, retrospective recording in Cubase doesn’t when I use Maschine as midi input. Has anyone noticed that?
man Maschine with a DAW is confusing as hell
This is the most complicated it can get and not recommended for beginners. You can just route audio channels or use audio drag and drop from Maschine for example.
Great video!! Thank you! Did you do the follow up with the template? I am unable to find it.
i have watched loads of tutorials on ths and YOURS is the best and easiest to understand. Thank you so much, recently bought maschine mk3 and getting nowhere with it, until NOW!!! THANKS MAN, GREAT JOB!!
And now you can use the drum editor for the drum tracks in cubase. Just select a drum map in the inspector like shown in this video: ruclips.net/video/I6_BxitjBxI/видео.html
yeah youve the most detailed and understandable video yet cuzzn im new to cubase thanks famo
There should be a "Machine channel" per default in cubase. But as this is not candy land _ thx a very lot !!!
I can't get Maschine to pop up it's not On the blacklist I've added them but when I add an instrument track the Native Instruments tab Pops up with a plus sign but nothing that's all
I'm late to the Maschine party but this is one excellent tutorial!
Maybe you've already figured it out but at 10:55 you can get rid of this annoying behaviour in Cubase preferences MIDI/MIDI File , "Import" pannel you just check the box "import dropped files as single part"
Yeah someone on the NI forum already told me that, a lifesaver!
Ha I haven’t seen the part in the video yet but I know exactly what your talking about
great!!1 D-one Thank you very much!! good important

The midi routing settings for Maschine are not available for me, the buttons are simply missing? What am I doing wrong?
What? It cant be, double check.

Thank you! Subscribed!!! This is to complicated!!!! When are they going to make this easier!!

you are the best man .. thank yoi very much ❤🎶🎹
This is really making Ableton and Push 2 Look so much more desirable. Bye Bye Native Instrument!!!! This is just to much work! Ridiculous!!!!
That makes sense for someone willing to change to Ableton or already using it. Push is a dedicated controller so nothing can beat it for ease of use and advanced control.
For a Cubase user not interested in switching his DAW, a Push won't even work afaik, so there's that...

Yes. Outputting the Pad/Sounds bypasses Group and Master FX. The lib/expansions usually have simple Group FX like Limiters or Maximizers, it's easy to make a bus/broup on the DAW and replicate it with stock Cubase plugs.

Hi Erazm. When you install Maschine software thru Native Access the VST version is auto-installed in your default plugins folder. Is the .dll there?

Thanks Man Big Question it has Changed in Newer Cubase like 9.5 and the this Way You Set Up in Maschine 2 mk3 i Got it to Set Up and Work With One Shot Drum Samples BUT i Cant Figuer Out How To Get Chopped Samples to Translate to midi Notes i Need every individual Chop to Have its own Midi Note and it is Not Working Man if you can help That Would Be Awesome Thanks For the video
Thats what the whole tutorial is teaching, did you follow all the steps?
Great Tut. What I would love to do is set 16 MIDI tracks in Cubase that correspond to the 16 pads in a regular group. I wish to record onto Cubase tracks while hitting the maschine pads and the midi recording onto each cubase MIDI channel at once. Is this possible? So basically it's turning each Cubase midi channel into a corresponding pad in Maschine. If I multi-select each Cubase MIDI channel and record MIDI, I can do multi MIDI recording no?
Yeah. Just set each pad to output to a MIDi channel corresponding to a DAW MIDI track, then enable Record on all those MIDI tracks.. Should be easy based on this tutorial. If you need help you can reach me on the official NI forum, I am a mod there. It's kind of hard to help in YT comments.
Thanks for this just what I needed. I am have problems with recoding and playing back within Cubase. Some of the pads are triggering 2 sample when I record, then when I play back those pads (samples) are not playing. It seems although I have the start note at c3, it's actually place a different note in cubase. Can anyone help?
Helping you thru a comment section is gonna be hard. If you want I can take a look at your project and spot where you messed up, I am a mod in the NI forum and easy to find, link in the description.
Oh Many thanks, I will check this out.
Did you do the follow up video ?
How to set up komplet kontrol A49 to cubase 9 ?? THKS for ur help...!
Hello. That's a very broad question, you have to be more specific...
Also I wanted to ask what's the purpose of the "drumkit" mode for the Group MIDI input. I was under the impression it does exactly what you show here for your first group in a single click except it's pretty much useless as soon as you have at least another group because when in drumkit mode the group receives MIDI on all channels indifferetnly. Am I right?
Hi Sam. Yeah, basically. Drumkit mode is mainly for the Komplete Kontrol Keyboards, it can work for some other situations but it has no MIDI channel selection so if you set it in a DAW there's no way separate things... It also has no Group transpose so you're stuck with the way Maschine maps it's pads (starts on C1 while most DAW start on C3)
earned a sub and like. peace
Seems like a lot to set up lol 😬
Well... Yeah. This is as complicated as it can get tho, you can just route the Audio channels to keep it simple, or use the Audio drag-and-drop button, that's what most people do.
@@D-One haha forsure, thank you for this video it was helpful tho
What about channels for samples/slices etc?
All the drums are one-shot samples. If you mean a sliced sample into a single Pad for more than 16 slices then it's the same as routing an instrument shown in the video.
Simple.But good.
Hi please help me. At the very beginning when you select maschine from the drop down instrument menu ,when I do this maschine does not appear ? I’ve re installed everything through the native instruments app and it just won’t appear. It won’t give me the option to select it as an instrument track please help thanks
Go thru the typical steps of debugging why the plugin does not show up:
Check your Plugins path folder, see if it is there where it should be.
Check if Cubase is not blacklisting the plugin.
Manually delete the Maschine VST and reinstall.
if all fails ask in the NI forum or google it.
This ist so great!!! Thank you!!!!!!!🔥
great stuff. thanks
HOW did you get maschine to show up in your drop downs?
What drop-down are you referring to?
great tutorial!!!! i´m really looking forward to the template-tutorial!
Thanks Andreas! 😁It should be done with it next week, i am out of town for the moment.
could you post a link to the template when its done? thx man!
Great Job D-One, the best I have seen to date. Thanks man. Jah bless.
Great tutorial!
Finally! I was searching something like this for ages!
Glad I could help! :D 🙏🏽
very helful, but for some reason i can't get it to work
Thanks! If you want to send me your Cubase project in the NI Official forum and ill have a look and tell you whats wrong, I'm easy to find there.
hello, they do not work for me I do the same as you and it does not work for me, help!
Send me your Cubase project and i can check what you did wrong.

Really helpful. This is what i looking for. Thx
Glad i could help.
So much messing around 🤔👀😭
I can’t imagine why anyone would do this instead of just exporting stems from Maschine and working with those in Cubase?
Thank u! Awesome Tutorial!
Excellent Work!!! Thank you very much for sharing.
Excellent tutorial, thanks!
Thanks, Paul ! :D
Thank you man ! This will make my workflow super fast. Subscribed.
Hello mate its any chance do same tutorial with new update maschine,routing looks different and my set up no working like your,thank you
Hello Wizmos. Things haven't changed enough for a whole new video but i have a written an updated guide filled with pictures on the NI Official forum, it should be even easyer to follow along than the video, link is here: www.native-instruments.com/forum/threads/tutorial-cubase-maschine-routing-integration.317162/
I founded and everything working perfect now ,great tutorial on your page,i've seen also now Komplete Kontrol have integration with Cubase which is awesome,thanks a lot for help mate as i can't find better tutorial here,cheers!
Have you ever ran into a deal where you have MACHINE 2--that you paid for--and one day a demo version shows up on your MAC it has taken over--I only get 30 min. of work and I can;t save my work--How would I get rid of the demo---THANKS
Hi. Yes, it happened a couple of times, open Native Access and make sure you logged into the correct account, reinstall if needed.
@@D-One Thanks man I have tried that--but the demo has captured my access code--really strange--uninstall does not work--because NI may have stuff hid else where--BUT I THANKYOU FOR YOUR TIME---PEACE
Thank you man. Really appreciated.
🙏🏽
That is what I needed! Thank you very much for this video! Unfortunately I have the same problem as Ruidos Rados. I have watched your tutorial several times and I am sure I didn´t miss anything. Everything works like in your tutorial but if have recorded some sounds from Maschine in Cubase, I can not listen to them afterwards (even I can see the recorded notes). If I drag and drop some midi from Maschine into Cubase, this problem does not appear, everything works and I can listen to it. Please help, otherwise I have to jump out of the window ;-)
Hun you are AWESOME!!! Thank you. And someone who really uses Cubase!!
Question? Where is the second video? Creating a cubase/maschine template please? Can't find it? Thanks!
I recorded it multiple times but was never satisfied, so never released it. I think I found an easy way to do/explain it and might release a vid next week.
@@D-One That would be great, look forward to that!! Thanks
Great video!
Hi. In Cubase 10.5 the right Tone doesn't get exported via MIDI. When I change the Tone in the Piano roll and Drag it into Cubase. Any Ideas how to fix this ? thx
You have to configure the correct transpose setting in Sound > MIDI > Output, it's covered in the guide so you must have missed it. recheck your settings.
@@D-One mmhh. Doesn't work. Thanks for responding. I did this often before in Cubase 9 - there it always worked.
Do I do this every time a make a project
If you want... Or you can save the Cubase project as a template and replace the sounds each time your start a new project, which will be a lot more practical if you have sort of a fixed workflow.
Help me again me pls :) When I'm in browse mode (browse button on) and load a sample into a pad, (Maschine Studio) no midi signal came out when I tap the pads and cannot record nothing. When exiting browse mode (browse button off) I have midi signal and can record sounds and instruments. In other video I saw this is not happen. What is wrong with my settings ? I have maschine 2.7.8 R540. Thanks !
Hi. Nothing wrong with your settings, that's expected behavior, you have to exit the hardware browser to be able to record. Maybe it was possible before, but right now it isn't. :S
Ok thanks.
There's gotta be a better way around this? everytime we set up anew project all this needs to happen before we can start actually getting creative? I feel tired already just thinking about it
Theres no other way, unless you want to do something very simple then DrumKit mode might be enough. You don't have to do it every time, you can save it as a template.
@@D-One I might have to give it another shot then, I've only just got my self into the world of maschine as I really like NI and I thought this would just help me lay down grooves a lot quicker so I can get to the more important parts of my projects quicker - creating the melodies and basslines,
but honestly man I'm finding maschine pretty unintuitive, I'm not sure if I'm just set in my ways but every time I try pick it up my creative flow goes out the window from all the menu hopping ,shift clicking and fumbling around. It's Stressed me out something ridiculous this week to the point where I've done zero producing.
Thanks for this bit PLEASE tell me how to create this TEMPLATE!
I don't see "maschine 2" when i try to add it to a instrument track. How do I tell my cubase how to find it? - Cubase 10 Elements and Maschine 2 with MK3.
Check if Maschine VST is installed in the correct Plugin folder, if not then reinstall Maschine, if that doesn't work the in Cubase check Devices > Plugin Manager and see if Maschine 2 is blacklisted for some reason.
@@D-One Hey I will check it out! Thanks for the advice! Many blessings!
Can not see the ACTIVE option :(
It was removed in recent Maschine versions, just ignore that step.
This works brilliantly, except all midi I record into the Cubase sequencer (using Maschine to play the part) is stuck at 127 velocity. Is it possible to record midi into the Cubase sequencer but with variable velocities?
Excellent. I'm about to have my maschine in couple of days and this is sure helpful.
Thanks! New Maschine Mk3 owner here - great tutorial.
