it's amazing how people can be so stupid... This guy did an AMAZING review, very well explained and very useful, and there are some guys complaining because "he didn't look at the camera... come on... make MUSIC not fashion on useless polemics.
Right! I was at first wondering why this guy won't look at the camera?! Then it hit me Whoa! You are here to learn how to manipulate this very complex piece of Tech not look at pretty faces. So, LOL. I thank him for staying focused as it directed me to do the same. Very well done. Just some areas of the audio are a bit muddy.
I just got a MK3 a couple weeks ago. I've been loving it so far. Still learning obviously, but it really speeds up a lot of processes for me. If you are into Electronic music production and like Native Instruments products like Massive, FM8, Battery and the like I highly recommend getting a Maschine.
Great video! You do a great job describing the Mk3 features, but also make it fun! Love how you use basic samples and really bring them to life! Thanks my man! Keep it up!
I really appreciate your humility, brotha. thank you for sharing your knowledge and thank you for making videos that are about the tutoring and not the tutor. much love.
9:33 I too got confused by the pads being disabled when the perform strip has NOTES mode activated. That's the default, but you can set them to be enabled: when in keyboard mode, button 4 "PADS ON" can be activated, see 7:51 Great demonstration, really interesting to see how you can make different sounds from a single sample so easily in Maschine, and how it leads the resulting sounds to have complementary harmonic characteristics too.
thanks a lot for this video. I've been spending way too much time on the DAW, this is such a quick and intuitive work flow. Thanks. I had to watch it few times to fully grasp everything. I appreciate it man
Super super helpful. I’ve had the mo3 for a few months now and the biggest problem I have is creating multiple scenes and patterns. When in arranger, I start with a blank slate create beat so scene 1 pattern 1 is set, but when I add more scenes with additional patterns the patterns are still under scene 1. What am not doing correctly?
When I go into arranger mode my screen interface does not resemble the one in this video. Mine shows all the scenes in columns which all my patterns. This is super annoying because I know how to arrange patterns on the toraiz sp16 . Can any one explain why my arranger interface is not like the one in this video?
maybe it's me but i never heard you mention, " SAVE YOUR WORK!!! " i personally save after every step i do... i make saving part of my workflow... lost toooooo much not to. good vid. cheers.
Can you use these things with analogue instruments like bass and guitar? For example direct input into the maschine your bass. Record a 3 min track and then layer other stuff on top of it. Or what ifperhaps you record the bass on your computer and then you load that file onto the maschine. Uf anyone can answer would he great or id you know a device for doinf this stuff
Very cool, these videos are indispensable, Please leave these up! Seems like many ppl Keep buying these, used and new, and we need some advice and knowledge to get GOING with em, THANK YOU so much!
Buff.. First have to go work n earn some dollars and save em up. :D Is it fun to start with Komplete Select for the beginning ? Are there enough internal Devices ( EQ, Comp, etc..) to get rolling ? So I could then upgrade one day when I got used to it and have earned even some more Dollars to Komplete Ultimate?. Thanks very much for the cool video. You really seem to enjoy making it. That's the reason I turn away from Ableton to Bitwig as DAW and to MASCHINE as a Beat-making Baby. I know exactly how I will Enjoy getting lost in a Controller and feeling the Music. Sure, there is Push - but I want to get Ideas rolling Simple and Straightforward, and not only the techno-style 4x4 beats which evereyone with a push seems to be doing because ableton and push lean themselves to that kind of music ( I am an Ableton fanboy since Ableton 4 by the way). When I get lost in my Computerscreen I make Music more Visually t- but that is something I actually don't want . So it's time to get back to what got me excited in making Music when I was a teen and there were no DAWs.
I'm having some trouble looping the sample as you did at the 7:00 mark. I set my sample to have the Loop Active ON, but when I press a pad, the sample doesn't loop. It only plays through one time, even after adjusting the start and end points. I'm unsure why it won't continue to play through as demonstrated :(....pretty frustrating. Can anyone give an alley oop here? Thanks in advance!
@@lazykid9167 thank you 🙏🏾. I realize I should have removed the question. Since asking those years ago, I eventually figured it out. Best and #keepcreating!
@@gtothewall Hehe. No its fine. I am sure you figured it out quickly. The question was good and I answered it rather for all those people who would stumble across your question and don't know the answer yet.
When you go to chord mode, are you using the omnichord sample and the Maschine is automatically making that sample to a different chord or is that chord mode just a software sound? If that makes sense lol :)

Does anyone else find their new maschine misses the first beat in every recording. It's like it doesn't sync up with the DAW in time so I have to wait til after the first beat to input, which throws off my timing. Then there's the hard drive that is a paperweight for komplete for Windows 10, apparently it doesnt work since the creators update, so you have to download everything. I like the feel of it and am improving at finger drumming, but the workflow (which I was warned about) and the daw syncing problems are making me question whether to just sell it. I wanted to also use the knobs for controlling instrument parameters but it seems very shallow and hard to map to non- NI instruments/synths
Thanks for answering one of the biggest concerns I had about creating different sections and making a song. Is it possible to play those sections and then sing over the top? I would either record onto external device or onto computer / DAW
You managed to write and arrange more in ten minutes than I do in ten hours... I've got the original MK1 Maschine. Might have to upgrade... Great vid and very well explained.
BeaTTender bro the mark2 demolished mk1, the mk1 was more just a concept. Was fucking pissed after mk2 came out and they abandoned the mk1. Same will be fate of mk 2 although i still really like mk2 interface. Pick one up for cheap if you are one of the millions of musicians who already has a scarlett
This video is great, very helpful, thank you for sharing! Any chance you could share those two samples? Those were very cool, would like to have them to repeat/practice this great video. Thanks again! awesome job
is this a good sampler to get if i've never done sampling before in my life? closest is an old drum machine w/ step sequence. looking for something capable but also a manageable learning curve cheers
I still don't get the difference between a SECTION and a SCENE, unless you can operate at SCENE level on the pads, then run the REC function in arranger view and trigger SCENES for varying lengths of time on the fly and the arranger captures the performance as SECTIONS?
I believe you can run Maschine as a plugin (VST, AU or whatever) inside another DAW. You can also run multiple instances on different channels in your DAW and switch the controller between them
Hey i've just bought the mashine MK3 new i'm running Mac High sierra, i plugged it in and one screen just say's "Mashine" and the other screen say's "Production and performance" does this device work on it's on or do you need the Komplete 11 package to get it to work?
no i havn't been able to get the software yet because i wanted to wait to buy the 12 coming out. Does it progres past that point once you plug it in with the software installed?
i'm still torn. I think N.I really need to incorporate a 'live' style record that lays out the tracks as you play. Always being bound to patterns sucks!!
perspective, bro.. i mean i fully get what you mean, but as a one man band this exact demo shows how u can do exactly that. it can be used the same way as a loop pedal. if u have all ur elements set up before hand ready to just press rec/play then jam it out. u know, get the bass going on a loop, synth. lead drums n what not.. and they may be on a 2 or 4 bar loop. then for a longer solo type thing, either record it in on a longer loop, or simply play live without recording.. and with being able to switch between diff patterns u can record them in on the fly.. ya just do it all without stopping the play from start to end of ur "live song".. when it comes to wanting to come to a section where alll the layers change at the same time, i guess thats the limitations of any one man band.. guess u could have some pre-made patterns or what not.. its just imagination bro
What I am referring to is a proper session view versus arrangement view in machine. Atm the arranger houses patterns and you can switch between them, but there is currently no way to record the 'live' switching of such patterns to create new arrangements, ala Ableton. This is why I keep using Maschine as a plugin to other DAW and not make full arrangments in Maschine software. Until it unlocks this functionality I believe it remains a rather restrictive groovebox.
ah yeh. this is true.. i gues they just need to let us have the ability to slide patterns freely left n right. I'm an Ableton user too and the best workflow I have found is outputing maschine audio to individual audio tracks in ableton and automating the mutes with midi
yeah exactly! which pullls me away from the Machine workflow and frustrates me a lot. I would like to be able to freeform arrange in Maschine, but can't so I use it mostly as a plug-in to Ableton instead.
mm yeh. well, i tried just now seeing how long a single pattern can be..256 bars.. could work like that? 1 long ass pattern? haha or multiple long as patterns for diff sections?
can you easily make your own samples import and export easily... what if you don't want to use samples. Some ppl wanto to be totally free and orginal!?
it's amazing how people can be so stupid... This guy did an AMAZING review, very well explained and very useful, and there are some guys complaining because "he didn't look at the camera... come on... make MUSIC not fashion on useless polemics.

the track you made is fire
Machine is a great interface. And now it’s standalone. It’s a no brainer . I ordered one after the MPC fell far short of my expectations. ✌️👽
Thank you! Finally a clear cut example of the arranger.
Great video! You do a great job describing the Mk3 features, but also make it fun! Love how you use basic samples and really bring them to life! Thanks my man! Keep it up!
I really appreciate your humility, brotha. thank you for sharing your knowledge and thank you for making videos that are about the tutoring and not the tutor. much love.
In case you were wondering, at 12:40 he looks into the camera. Back to topic: thanks for giving me a hint of what Maschine is really about.
This guy knows what he is talking about. This was an amazing & interesting video!

7 mins into this video I just ordered one lmao. This thing looks cool af xD
you and i we are the same!
How did you 2 guys like it? Do y'all still have it?
@@klaytonvonkluge4905 it’s nice! Just bought one on EBay, with the included license🔥
Did you get one? If so, did you keep it? Do you still use it? #iGotQuestions 🤔🙄😒🤦🏾♂️😁😎🥃

Amazing demonstration of the power contained within the Mk3. Love it! Well done!
Great go too video... certainly a brilliant update on the Mklll and with the S88 it's awesome..Thanks.
The best video on mk3 I've seen so far no wonder I stick with NI
Excellent - no flab; clean, clear, concise.
Best demo on the new Maschine by far!
RockstahRolln true
thanks a lot for this video. I've been spending way too much time on the DAW, this is such a quick and intuitive work flow. Thanks. I had to watch it few times to fully grasp everything. I appreciate it man
Great vid. Having owned the mk3 for a month or so I learn so much from these little gifts,✌️❤️🇨🇦

How does he make the komplete kontrol keyboard behind change lights continuously as it was switching on and off???
Native Instruments have a mode called Vegas look it up it makes your keyboard light up
@@soundboy605 thanks, i never knew about this update, just hold down both page left and right buttons while turning the keyboard on.
i wish all tutorials were this helpful. Paul you are great at this. And as a plus you made me wanna research grain delay more... thnx :)
Oh my god, you answered so many questions I've had, this was such an incredibly useful video. Thank you guys!
@Mike S Hear, hear!
Can you record a filter or pitch change kinda like when you use the variation slider in the mpc 2000xl and make the beat get faster or slow it dwn?
Awesome. Thank you. One of the best workflow demonstration.
How does the mixing work?
How do you implement this into the arranger to drag to daw...or would you route into daw from this page? 2 yrs later
Thank you for this really nice demonstration of the Mk3.

This is super annoying because I know how to arrange patterns on the toraiz sp16 . Can any one explain why my arranger interface is not like the one in this video?
Shift song shift ideas ...

i personally save after every step i do... i make saving part of my workflow... lost toooooo much not to. good vid. cheers.
I don't enjoy learning the hard way. But much like yourself, I often do.
i wish i could upvote twice. top notch man. i hope i can find more of your tutorials.
Dope runthrough of the arranger guys!
I hope the passive aggressive haters who can't find themselves don't detour someone from making a good decision. This is a great tool.
can you lock settings like the note repeat so that you don't have to hold the button?
Can you use these things with analogue instruments like bass and guitar? For example direct input into the maschine your bass. Record a 3 min track and then layer other stuff on top of it. Or what ifperhaps you record the bass on your computer and then you load that file onto the maschine. Uf anyone can answer would he great or id you know a device for doinf this stuff
So extremely helpful. You really use this how it was meant to be
does anybody know if a start / stop pedal can be used to start / stop the sequencer on the MK3?
Great demo! Lots of nice tips, packed in 13min
Very cool, these videos are indispensable,
Please leave these up! Seems like many ppl
Keep buying these, used and new, and we need some advice and knowledge to get GOING with em, THANK YOU so much!

Gonna try this pitch glide thingy asap
Let us know how you get on.
Really helpful. Amazing what you can do without once looking at the laptop.
When you go to chord mode, are you using the omnichord sample and the Maschine is automatically making that sample to a different chord or is that chord mode just a software sound? If that makes sense lol :)
Joshua Beebe it plays the sample at different semitones to create chirds
Brilliant. I cannot wait to dig in further. Thank you!
Paul or whoever can help, how do you go back and forward bars with the step tool that was on the mk one? Thats my biggest hurdle so far

But you still have to mix this into your daw?
You can do all this without a computer?
Needs to be connected to one but you can do pretty much all of the process on the mk
Arry Boi thanks
Hi! Can I plug a guitar Amp and a microphone to this maschine through line in 1 and 2? Thank you very much. Cheers
Yes

😒😈😝😡
Studios are selling for $300 on eBay, thanks mk3.
You'll need an interface too
by the end of it you'll be paying more.
+DJAbraxoOfficial what do you mean?
If they're thinking about getting something else then they'll need an interface. NI built integrated one into the MK3.
Yep I bought the MS just yesterday on eBay for $250. It was surreal
@@sactownchad It's better than no interface though.
But I'm at the point where I'd like to sell this for a focusrite and a push 2.
So the maschine studio is the better choice?
excellent! thanks very much!

2020 MK4. No computer required. Internal ssd for standalone operation. Optional battery power
I would drop 2000 for that.
Im pretty sure that already exists ? maybe without battery power? the Akai MPC X?
Is the MPC live really that much better? Would it help a newbie?
No computer required? A sampler is a computer.
@@exmoorbeast9769 mpc is a sampler. Maschine have vsti support and is not a detail.
THE MK3 is just a cute ass Maschine Studio
and a great one, sounds like butter
yeah, but can you record everything you've finished into a computer? EASILY with a click of a button or is super complicated?
Yes, you can bounce a project from the Maschine in just a couple of clicks at a number of levels such as master or group.
I believe you can run Maschine as a plugin (VST, AU or whatever) inside another DAW. You can also run multiple instances on different channels in your DAW and switch the controller between them
is this example made with the sounds that comes with Maschine mk3 when you purchase it other than the two samples you showed at the begining?
Sweet video! Thanks for the tutorial, very effective for me to overcome the technical side.

i'm still torn. I think N.I really need to incorporate a 'live' style record that lays out the tracks as you play. Always being bound to patterns sucks!!
perspective, bro.. i mean i fully get what you mean, but as a one man band this exact demo shows how u can do exactly that. it can be used the same way as a loop pedal. if u have all ur elements set up before hand ready to just press rec/play then jam it out.
u know, get the bass going on a loop, synth. lead drums n what not.. and they may be on a 2 or 4 bar loop. then for a longer solo type thing, either record it in on a longer loop, or simply play live without recording.. and with being able to switch between diff patterns u can record them in on the fly..
ya just do it all without stopping the play from start to end of ur "live song"..
when it comes to wanting to come to a section where alll the layers change at the same time, i guess thats the limitations of any one man band.. guess u could have some pre-made patterns or what not.. its just imagination bro
