I've been looking for this type of video forever. THANK YOU. I'm a complete novice when it comes to MK3. I would love a video of you showing how to count bars that you referenced in this video. Maybe even a beginners guide to using the MK3 too. Thanks again! I'm definitely subscribing
thanks a bunch! will do - I think a beginners guide is a great idea! let me know as you run into any issues/ struggles/ questions & I will do what I can to help! Have a good one
@@JahnRose Thank you! I've been going through a bunch of tutorials but everyone seems to do things a bit different so I get lost during the whole process from the beginning. I'm still having trouble even creating a simple drum beat where it is even with the tempo/BPM. I'll keep working on it. I hope to see more MK3 videos from you soon. Peace.
@@todaysuniverse peace bro. For in maschine - click the little drop-down triangle next to the machine logo and go to file>preference >general >quantize... and set it to play/ record. Set your grid to either 1/8 or 1/16 (bottom left of the screen).
@@JahnRose I'll definitely give that a shot. I followed you on Reddit too. If you don't mind, I can shoot you a message through there if I come up with any other questions. Thanks again for your time. It's much appreciated.
@@JahnRose I’m just getting back into things after a ten year break. Bought the MK3 after discovering my MK1 wasn’t supported any longer. Finding the time to dig in enough is my problem. I just appreciate you taking your time to put your process on tape.
@@kennethellinger1468 all the best luck getting back into it bro. Things can be a bit rusty after a long break but I’m sure in no time it’s all gonna come back. Yeah n I’m trying to pass on all the knowledge I can- I actually want to have a school in the future ✌🏾
Amazing. Your teaching style so resonates with me, learn one action thoroughly and with nuance and depth all while entertaining. Please make more as this i suspect is how most people will retain the knowledge your sharing. Many many kudos
So BLESSED to have found this channel. Reddit brought me here. This was an amazing tutorial. You are great, brother. I do have one question for you: I am a newbie, wanting to get into making 90's boom bap style of hip hop production. I am not a musician, merely a hobbyist/enthusiast/hip hop historian (I'm 50 years of age) so I will be 100% sample based. I do have a computer and I don't plan on taking any gear outside of my home. I am on the fence between the MPC One and Maschine MK3. I noticed on your channel that you also have videos on the MPC One, so I think you're in a great position to lead me in the right direction because you are very familiar with the ins and outs of both machines. Thank you again for the amazing content. Blessings!
I appreciate the kind comments brother! For me I love the stand-alone I get with the MPC. it’s a lot more expensive to get that with the Maschine. Their standalone is very pricey. I will say in my experience that learning machine is faster. Although I have heard others say the MPC is faster. The main reason I love the Mpc/ standalone is that I don’t get any latency when I’m playing. Latency = the computer dragging & makes timing impossible. This is one of the main reasons many modern music makers started quantizing everything. Or snapping all the beats to the grid. 90s hip-hop doesn’t do that at all. So you need to be able to accurately hear and feel the music... to feel the groove. so if you have a very beefy computer... latency shouldn’t be a problem. But if your computer is older or slow in any kind away, it’s going to be a big issue. Hope this helps bro have a great day!
@@JahnRose I had turntables in the past and was practicing some mixing . I was able to get the programs loaded on the maschine . Hope to learn to sample and make a beat soon .
brother!!! I hope youre having an outstanding day!!! if youre in the SF bay cali, then we mos def need to round up and blaze!!!! I got dope guitar riffs for you forever brother!!!!
Thank you so much for this video! Could you make a video about BPM, Timing, The difference between 1,4,8,16 bars. I’m having trouble getting my time down when I lay drums down they just overlap and it’s off beat and it sounds horrible. Also I want to use a sample as a loop and I haven’t figured that out yet. I also don’t know where I can find the page on the maschine program that I can view the colored squares to my beat and move them around and delete them and such. I don’t think I’ve seen a video yet (using a mk3) to describe BPM and bars and timing and such. Thanks!
Just select the pad that the sample is on and then hit the "keyboard" button on your maschine controller. pad 1 (bottom left corner) will now be the original sample, pad 2 will be pitched up 1/2 step, pad three will be pitched up 1 step...etc hope that helps
Thanks a lot for this useful tutorial. Subscribed. Question - I am getting signals when I play keyboard as external source. However, when I push START, it says “waiting for the next bar…” . I waited but nothing happens. How do I fix that. Need your help.desperately. Please advise. Thanks in advance.
Hey have you ever ran into a problem where adding a 4th or 5th drum kit or group kit and start hearing popping or static? If so what to do to get rid of it?
It has so do with the processing power of your computer and your audio settings. Go into the audio settings in maschine and increase the buffer size. this should hopefully get rid of the pops. But the more u increase it the more likely you are to experience latency ( delay in your signal). So you have to find some sort of happy medium for your system.
How did you connect your turntable to the MK3 to sample from it? I'm getting one soon, and haven't even seen the back, so maybe it's just obvious...I'm assuming I can feed in audio from other devices, such as sounds/music from an Android phone?
So the mk3,has three audio inputs- a stereo L/R and a mono “mic” input. All of which are quarter inch ( like a guitar cable). So if your record player has old-school phono outputs, you will need to get some kind of adapter/ cable. Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any questions after you pick up your Maschine. Have a great day
I would check your cable first. Make sure it’s playing on some other device. After that I would check the Maschine sampling screen. Make sure it is set to external. Either external L, external R or external L+R. Good luck, hope this helps
@@JahnRose hello cable works I do have all those settings and still no signal not sure why. If any other suggeations i would like to hear them. Thank you.
Thumbs up just for the initial groove and dancing. I don't even need to watch the rest. (but I will) Was totally looking for a Matrix meme/clip when you said "The One" Unsubscribed. J/K
I love your spirit... vibe... and energy.... But all of your cut ins for the video is messing with my F'n ADHD too hard to focus. But I thank you anyway, brother.
Dude I loved this video. Came for some knowledge and left with so much more. Legend.
Thank you I truly appreciate it
nice tutorial i have the mk3 and sp404 mk2 still learning them both thanks ill be watching this over and over till i get it

Just seeing you dancing made my day 😂. I just bought my mk3 and I needed some teachers. I guess I found one.
Hell yeah! Hearing this comment made mine!

Thank you for this right here Big Homie just copped Maschine Plus so this perfect to for helping me get down to business .
No problem at all. Let me know if you have any questions in the future. Have fun with your Maschine
Thanks bro 😎
Thanks. That was great - so well explained and wise. I’m off on my sampling journey now, wish me luck!
Awesome! Have fun!
It WAS awesome. I chopped some Barry White’s Playing Your Game and stuck it on a reggae riddim in Gm I was playing with and - bang - a whole new vibe!
Very helpful video thx. The funky music woke up nice memories:)
I appreciate it 🙏🏾thank you
This helped me migrate entirely off my mouse using Audacity. Sampling and editing entirely on maschine now
That’s really dope! Any way you can get away from the mouse is a big win
Great Video For Beginners .
Thank you I really appreciate it
@@JahnRose I had turntables in the past and was practicing some mixing . I was able to get the programs loaded on the maschine . Hope to learn to sample and make a beat soon .

I appreciate the offer! But I’m way down here in South Carolina.
Peace and respect bro
Hey im in San Jose and i am getting real good at maschine. Would love to create anytime
Thank you for this video. No stupid talking and extra shit just techniques and G.I. Joe clips…. And I use a Mikro mk2 but I get it.
Rt on glad I could help! Have fun sampling
Very good tutorial! 👍🏾
Much appreciated 🙏🏾
Great tutorial!

Aye good shit
Rt on thank you

Sure thing. I will see what I can do for you
I have a doubt after slicing, how do i stretch the sample without affecting the pitch or how to pitch up/down without affecting the speed?
Y'all-right
How do you take a single sample and play it pitched to every note without pitching each sample manually?
Just select the pad that the sample is on and then hit the "keyboard" button on your maschine controller. pad 1 (bottom left corner) will now be the original sample, pad 2 will be pitched up 1/2 step, pad three will be pitched up 1 step...etc
hope that helps

Hmm that’s a tough one. Wish I could say. I would contact NI customer support. Sorry I’m not more help
@@JahnRose no worries.. Thanks for your response though.
Nice moves!
Thank you I appreciate it. Let me know if you have any video requests. Have a good one
Can each sample/pad have its own settings such as envelope (for fade in/out), trigger, one shot, loop modes, etc? Like the sp404?
I’ve never used an sp but you can customize individual pads in Maschine to your heart’s content. You just need to know where to look for the settings
How do you connect your record player to the mk3?? And what record player do you use/or recommend!?
that way great 🤙

Does this only work in standalone mode? Mine doesn’t record in DAW/Plugin mode.
Yeah I only use Machine as stand alone. I’ve always encountered problems inside of other DAWs
Ok I’m gonna try it Standalone. Thanks 🙏🏾🤘🏾
What kind of vinyl player do you use?
I just have some cheap turntable I got as a Christmas present one year
Yyyeeeessss
Appreciate the support! Have a great day!

mine is just... naughty
I've never been able to record any samples into my Maschine , either 😡
Bro youre my last hope. So i posted a video about an issue im having with my mk3 if you could please look at it!
No problem. I left you comment on that video
I came across the Hip Hop version of Bray Wyatt 😂

does the mashine record it with an oboard micrphone from record speakers or how?
