Maschine 2.2 Tutorial - New Features and Workflow Example - Dubspot 

Just got out my Maschine Studio, having not really used it since I got it. Other tutorials just had me lost, assuming everyone new the equipment and what all the buttons do. I have to say this is absolutely the BEST and most useful. I am a beginner and with your help, especially with the chords/arpeggiator functions, I'm beginning to make a tune at last. Thank you.

Matt, I love your tutorials. They're always fun but at the same time, give a good overall tutorial. So thanks, keep up the good work. (also, major respect for the Rad reference in that other video).

I always enjoy your vids matt super clear and you end up making great melodic tunes on these tutorials

Duuudddee, this is so inspiring. I've been stuck in a music making rut for a long time, trying to finish tracks in Cubase, doing it the old fashioned linear timeline thing. I've been re-imagining my workflow though, and I think switching to Bitwig will help with big picture song arrangements & automation performances toward the end of finishing a track, but this puppy maschine studio looks like the true song builder inspirational workflow that I've been looking for all along. Big fan of all your videos, I always learn so much. Cheers!!

Clear and Straight to the point. Great video.

Schweat! These guys always have tutorials on the right topics. Glad to see it done on the Maschine Studio. Excellent.

This was the only attributes missing, absolutely stunning! I am so excited to rock that mk2 through the holidays!

love it, i had a bit of a problem ,downloading and installing the 2.2 .but after a few days a knocked it , i,ll follow your steps and see .thanks to you , dupspot and NI

Well done! You really do know what you're doing !

What a superb guide. I only have the Mikro but this has helped me achieve the same using the somewhat less intuitive interface.

Sold! Im about to go update right now! Btw, I agree w/everybody else you need to finish that track, that joint is nice!

Great video cant wait to get home to play around with this...

I can't wait to take yals class over the summer!

Love the upgrade. Great tutorial.

cool video, i'll be watching this one a few more times.

perfect overview. thank you!

Great tutorial.

Nice tips. Thanks

Nice tutorial!

Update looks sweet, been waitin for dem arps, updating software right now :D

I don't know how to play chords so this update is going to help me tremendously. within 5 seconds of playing with sounds i was able to come up with patterns i've never been able to make. Workflow is about to get super quick.

nice overview, thanks

that is amazing thanks

You're awesome!! So as this tutorial ;)

FYI - the flamenco reference is to the AMAZING album "Friday Night in San Francisco" by Al Di Meola, John McLaughlin, and Paco De Lucia. Please go discover it if you have never heard it

Zet Germans. Great improvement. Nice work Cellitti.

Thanks and Merry Christmas!!!! Could you show me how to sample a record and make a beat?

Cool. So I have the straight-up standard non-Studio Maschine MK2. Can I essentially do exactly what I just saw you do with the Studio unit? Awesome tutorial BTW! I have a bit of a learning curse. Cheers

Hi Matt, what camera are you using to record this video? looks great. Thanks :)

Dope one bro

man you need to do something with that track...LOL...that would be a dope song !

Yo Matt! That's SLICK! ;D

Hello, quick question, I did the update, love messing around with the chords and whatnot, tho I'm not seeing these "windows" as far as the touchsensitve knobs. Am I doing something wrong? Still a lil new to Maschine coming from Reason lol Thanks in advance!

points for mentioning Al Di Meola!

that was dope !! I just bought mine today going to try it out, for some reason mine does not have that touch knob feature though...

DOPEEEEEE

can you do the same things with the regular maschine or even the mikro?

I never updated my 1.8 mk1 machine. Is tis update worth it on the MKI or should I just cop a MKII or Studio? Thanks in advance

Hi guys I bought my Maschine studio last week, my Maschine software says it's 2.2 but I don't have the komplete bits on there or the touch sensative knobs. Any idea how I update my firmware? Many thanks in advance.😊

Thanks for the tutorial Matt! very excited about this release. I've tried installing on Mavericks and Yosemite through service center and from the disk Image file. On Yosemite I'm getting an error message saying I have to install from the original location and on my mavericks mac, the installs looks as though it was installed but when I launch Maschine Standalone it is still Maschine 2.1.2. very confused. i'm not a noob and normally I can figure out these issues on my own. I've contacted NI support. any suggestions?

Matt - are the scale options available on the original Maschine controller?

Ok so does this keyboard/scale mode ect... Work with third party vsts synths i have? Or just the NI products just like the Kontrol S does only NI Products?

Great Tutorial ! I would like to know which track is the one in the introduction of the video! Thank you! :)

thanks for sharing video was off the chains sir

if I play a chord set inside of maschine am I able to use it as midi else were like in ableton with a different vst?

Does the chord, scale, arp etc not work with the maschine mikro? Or does it only work with the studio?

Does scale & ARP modes work with sampled material you record in?

Hey I have a maschine mikro and have the 2.2 update. I make primarily sampled based hip hop and I previously was able to sample wav. form files into my beats, now when I do so and I click "apply" I get no sound out of the pads.. any solution on this? If there's anyway you could help me out that would be much appreciated. Would be totally nonsensical if they eradicated this feature in the new update. Please get back to me, thank you 

Hi, Matt, I have a Maschine Mk I, and I can't seem too find a way to access the harmonies and chords from the hardware... Can you help me out? Any help would be appreciated.

Really great. Question... are your fingers just that tight that you're hitting perfectly or do you have it auto quantized to hit on the beat? The learning curve on Maschine is so tough for me. My ADD always hits and I get super frustrated. This makes it look so easy.

Is it possible to export the midi data of the chords into pro tools so those chords are triggering xpand?

THERE IS NO WAY TO EMAIL TRACKS SINCE THE UPGRADE YOU CAN ONLY EXPORT AUDIO AS MXPRJ FILES THAT CANT BE OPENED OUTSIDE MASCHINE PLEASE HELP!!!!

This is strange. I updated to 2.2 and when I launch Maschine, it says 2.2.1 when I check but I dont see the chords feature and my buttons dont have that option popup. I am in 32bit mode... does it matter? do these features apply to maschine 64 bit? I can't... can it?

After watching this video im going to guitar center right now to pick one up

All his instruments, are they in stock or did he buy them separately? I can't see Reaktor instruments on my Maschine Studio :/

HELP PLEASE!!! This might be a user error, but it seems like a glitch to me! When I am in Chord mode and i try to copy, paste or move the midi on my sequencer in any type of way, it alters the the sound of the chord randomly. So say I have the same chord back to back in my progression, the chord will sound nothing like the previous chord which is exactly the same... On another note, your videos are inspiring and incredibly informative. Thanks Mr. Cellitti!!!

Trying to sample a record and chop in to slices via slice mode makes no noise anymore so I have to individually chop each slice manual. Only since 2.2 update. However slice mode for the same purpose works with Maschine stock sounds.

kind of wish they would do tuts with just the mk2. I reckon the vast majority of people would be using this model and I always hate being made to feel like I have an inferior piece of hardware (even though its obviously not worth getting the studio unless you have the cash to burn)

I only have a micro, is it possible to view/choose those scale and chord button layouts in the software and if so where do I find them?

why would someone dislike this... jesus man...

How do you change key???

My maschine MK1 doesn't have a pad mode button it says Keyboard on that button how do I access pad mode from it?

That's hot.

native instruments always improve. Been waiting for this update for a long time now. no more using machine template all done up for you.

Strange: I updated my maschine software to 2.2 but I still run it with a mk1. Now after shutting maschine software down my hardware (MK1) stays on... Anybody got an idea. Should I need an update as mentioned below. Im not sure. I dont wanna f up my working system now... Help would be nice...

Hey, I have a question and i'm sorry but it's not relevant to this video. But the NI forum turned up nothing and I... didn't know where else to go! haha. So I had this track all worked out and recorded and almost done. One of the banks is loaded with samples from various parts of a song. I had all the sounds pitched differently and with varying effects. I don't know what happened... but now when I make any change at all to one of the sounds in the bank, it alters all the rest. For example, if I change the pitch of one sound, all of the other sounds follow. I'm not sure what I did to cause that, and it was working before. driving me nuts. any idea? its like they all chained together and I'm not sure how. MK2. thanks.

I love wats been added ,now what we are all waiting for us is audio chanels then its bye bye cubase,

i would love to join dubspot online but the online service is way to high for the average person to afford i think u guys would do way more volume if u think about the small guy to.

Is anybody here having issues with CPU usage (spikes, overload) since updating to 2.2? There's nothing helpful on the NI forums as of yet, so I thought I might run it by the youtube users. Immediately after the update, my old projects became unlistenable (not a word) due to CPU spikes, and new projects do the same with just a couple VST's. Any helpful info would be much appreciated. Sorry for tattling.

I'm seriously starting to consider masculine or push.... Coming from MPC2500

holy fucking shit...i have an mpc..but god damn..maschine just blew the fuck out of akai with this one..i just might have to get one if akai doesnt add this soon!

When you're touching the knobs at the beginning, and the windows pop up..... HOW HAVE YOU SET THAT UP! it is not working for me :(

touch sensitive knobs my arse, i got the maschine studio and it doesnt work for me.... and all the instruments knobs are from 0 to 1 and everything inbetween is 0.xxxxxxxx weird as fuck. is my version glitched?!?

1:39 Of course it's difficult because you are using a drum machine to play chords/scales.

Lol but only if u could use any midi keyboard with maschine chord mode ect....

hello? is this God?

Cool but hope it doesn't take the soul outta your guys' music ;)
