This is just a quick video I put together showing how to use sounds from beat thang virtual in Maschine. Of course it will work for other programs too, but Maschine has some features that makes it pretty easy and quick to do. A lot of folks that have BTV are always looking for ways [...]

Yo, yall know I’m a huge fan of Maschine…but you also know I’ve recently become a huge fan of BPM as well. I love them both for different reasons. The hands on workflow of Maschine is un-matched. And I love how it handles sampling, editing samples, chopping, etc. But I also love the BPM sound [...]

You all know I’ve been using Maschine for a while, and one question I get quite a bit is how to lay out a song using scenes. It’s a little different than traditional song mode in a beat machine… where you just put a pattern in a list and tell it how many times to [...]

Or you like everything software has to offer, but you haven’t found anything to replace your favorite string patch from that roland [...]

I know I just posted a video of how to sequencing plugins in Live from Maschine standalone. But this is a little different. This if for those that want to use Maschine as a plugin within Live, yet not use Maschine’s sequencer. This will let you record the midi data into Live’s sequencer while still [...]
