Yoooooooooooooooooooo what’s good MT fam!
Back with another two part series that I think you’re gonna really love….it could actually be 3 parts but I just kept the first two together as they flowed into each other.
So bear in mind this first part is about 20 minutes long, with each “concept” being around 10 or so minutes each.
I know many have trouble understanding the arranger in Maschine, I’ve found that it makes the concept sink in a bit easier if you look at the groups as a single multi track sequencer.
So in this tutorial I show how to use 1 group as a multi track sequencer, and how to use the arranger to lay your songs out just using patterns. Â Understanding this concept will let you come to better grips with song construction and how to use the arranger in Maschine.
In the second half of the video I go over some very simple track mute automation thanks to our very own MT Fam member Tjay, who coded a plugin to make mute automation easier.
He did it just that and is giving it as a free beta exclusively to the MT Fam!
You know I had to exploit this concept!
So I show the basic way it works in the second part of this video.
WOOOOOOOOOOOO !!!! LOVE IT…lol… man when you were muting that I was like YES !!!! Inspiration indeed !
Hi! I would like to download the Hush vst midi trigger, but it won’t let me inside the forum. I’ve signed up, but still waiting for the “approval”. I can’t logging. Is there an other way I can have the plugin?
Thanks!
You should be able to get in now, thanks!
Cool! Thanks! 🙂
New Favorite Tool
Haha dope, Note repeat ftw!
hahaha…WILD! I fully endorse this statement! lol
Lovely! I don’t think I’m fond of working all in one group, but I’m sure I’ll get over it. lol
I know I don’t have to limit myself to one group only as well. This will def hold me over til NI addresses this. Good one TJay.
This has to be the best yet! Excellent job Tjay what a mind you have….
Great job my brother!
Cheers Joe
Very nice just hush works with mac .. Speaking for me and knock this something we really gonna take to the next level lol
Ya that is very cool! I like that joint ya put together Joe! Real smooth!
Nice one SJ.
could you clarify that BOTH the kick and the snare are running off the same pad lablled ‘Drums’?
Yeah, just route both sounds to the same mute channel.
Oh, and how do you do that?
Very nice – downloading Hush now!
Of course, you wouldn’t necessarily have to work entirely within one group, would you?
You could always route individual sounds, and entire groups, to the Hush VST group, couldn’t you?
You could even have two (or more) groups dedicated to mutes – just load up Hush on every pad in those groups – giving you 32 or more mutes!
Yes, you can route however you wish, I was just continuing on a tutorial with 1 group, but if you have multiple groups you can still do it the same way.
MASSIVE thanks to Tjay – I just had a play with Hush (love the name btw!) – it it works perfectly!
Love, love, love it!!!
Really flexible when you start routing different combinations of different pads and groups to mutes
I might have to have a little playt with adjusting the attack and release – I assume that you could get some pretty cool improvised gating effects.
Yeah man, you could set it up to perform your song by hitting pads, one mute for the verse, one for the chorus, bridge, etc 🙂
So essentially u could sequence your whole song from one pattern if u wanted. Lol. Dope option
Pretty much, if you wanted to
Haha thanks, I figured Hush was an appropriate name 😛
You really have endless possibilities when it comes to hush routing:
eg Route drums to their own Hush channels, route these to a Hush drum mix then have all your drums and instruments routing into the finger!
hey sj do u know of any timing plugin that will work in machine so if i want to monitor the length of a song? or do u know of a why to monitor time, with these patterns, scenes, etc
I haven’t found one yet that is cross platform, I know there is one called “big clock” for windows, but haven’t found one for mac yet.
Im looking into programming one.
That would be cool! MT programmer in the house! lol
right thx
I’m hoping they can put one in Maschine natively though
Yea I looked into it and the best I can provide is time since you last restarted track. so if your scene is 4 bars long and you let it loop twice, the time displayed will be 8 bars worth.
Hmmm, they need a regular time based transport in Maschine lol, still find it weird that’s not there.
Nice Tutorial! MT Advanced he we go!
Yep, these both will be added to the Advanced section lol.
This beat is SICK. good stuff
word, glad to help fam!
hey is Hush 4 mac osx ?
yep
who makes it ?
Everything regarding the plugin is explained in the post as well as the link to where you can download it.
Our very own MT Fam member, TJay! Feel free to donate. I’m going to! I just need to get his info lol
Indeed.
I’m goona be setting up a page this weekend for this 🙂
awwwwwwwww yeah!
Great work! Thx.
On the drums I over heard a clap. How did u play the kick and clap on 1 pad Saintjoe
Oh lol, this is all coming from Kontakt, so it was a Kontakt kit 🙂
Ok. I was like wth! How he playing drums + claps etc on 1pad..
LOL!!!
I was watching some of your older bids, and you said each pad was a “container”. I thought you just loaded different sounds to the piano roll. Is that possible?
Yeah…sorta, I was actually planning to do a vid on this after he asked about it.
You can load multiple sounds into one sound in the map, so you can make a drum kit across the keyboard if you want, instead of using up multiple pads.
That’s what I thought. You just don’t have as many customization options available per sample.
right, but if you want to treat the whole kit together, it can be a useful tool to save pad space 🙂
Sorta like a drum kit on the mp7 or other workstations, you would add fx and everything to the whole kit.
It’s got it’s uses, just depends on how you like to work. Also it’s cool for those that prefer bangin beats out from the keyboard.
Like I said, his question made me decide to do a vid on it, so I shall 🙂
Can’t wait!
Holy dopeness!!!
LOL!!! That’s whasup fam, enjoy it!
with the mute thing can i export the beat to a daw with track mutes ect… alraedy done? for example how would export that beat u just did in the video to ur daw with each sound seprerated in audio. i love mixing with track mutes but im having trouble exporting to a daw
Export the Hush VST group and select the options to export sounds, so each sound “track” in the Hush group will be exported.
This will give you your tracks with the mutes since it’s only going to export the audio from the Hush group.
Ok thsmx
No doubt fam
Hey people ! where can I find HUSH VST? I could not find it in the internet, please help!
The link to get it is up in the post.
Hi!
any chance to know how to instal Hush on maschine ?
you just load it in whatever folder you have your other plugins and rescan so maschine can see it
wassup SJ. i see you programmed your drums on one pad. how did you do that?
I used kontakt for the drums, or you could do this
https://maschinetutorials.com/how-to-build-a-drum-kit-on-a-single-pad
Ok, I’m lost SJ, how did you get the sounds to stay in 1 group ?
I’m not sure what you mean by stay in one group? I only used one group for my sounds so they would only show up in the group I put them in.
SJ, thanks for responding. All the sounds are in group h for example in this tutorial. My question is how are you getting them to play the samples etc?
I just recorded them all in one group instead of multiple groups. I have different sounds on each pad.
SJ, this is what I’ve done so far. I have my waves in example Group A, right going through 1thru8. But When I attempt to have them play just in the 1 group, each sound goes to 2 through 8, rather then stay in 1. I hope that helps
I think you are confusing group with sounds. A group is A-H, 16 pads.
Are you asking how I have multiple sounds in one pad? If so, that’s because I am using kontakt. You could do the same thing by putting them into the sample map on the same pad

Hush it works!
Thanks Tjay, and offcourse SJ for yet another well explained vid 😉
word man word!
i suppose hush is 32bit, looks like i need jbridge…
yeah, it works with jbridge though
man that note repeat muting thing is FIRE! Doesn’t the hush vst work in 64-bit mode???
only if you have a bit bridge, it’s not native 64 bit
Have you allready done a tutorial on how to use a bridge sw with maschine?! So far all the bridge sw i have found is for pc. what about mac?
Yeah, try jbridge, they have a Mac
https://maschinetutorials.com/mt-quick-tip-using-32-bit-plugins-in-64-bit-maschine-with-jbridge/
thx joe!
No problem bro!
Dope video! Sometimes I put all my synths together but never thought of thi. I like being able to see the notes for each sound simultaneously.
Are u giving up mix and routing options by using one sound slot for ur drums though?
And WOW! At first I was like what’s the big deal with hush until u hit record! Omg!
Yeah if you have all your drums on one sound, you give up routing, etc. But a lot of times personally I route all my drums together anyway. I don’t really work this way myself, but I know many who do.
FYI Saintjoe — the link to download Hust VST isn’t working anymore…
Thanks, try it now fam
Link is fixed, thanks SJ! Such a great video. One of my favorites on MT.
Glad to help bro!
hush link is down again SJ… can you hook it up? or is there a way to record mutes in 2.0?
That was provided by a member so we didn’t have any control over the download, looks like his site is offline all together so I can’t provide a link to it. We still can’t record mutes in 2.0 natively.
I forgot I had these files hosted on that website. I moved the files onto dropbox instead but the website should also be working again: http://www.leetpowered.com/hush.html
Cool, thanks man, good to hear from ya!
wassup…..s.joe…..
i love hush, but im in maschine 2.1newbieville…..i aded it and its not seeing it. can u tell me where i should drag and drop it? AU or vst prefered?
love this group
You would put it in your vst folder that you have setup in Maschine so it can scan, but if I remember correctly, it’s only 32 bit, so if you’re in 64 bit version of Maschine you won’t see it.
yep… i have the 64 bit version. is there a work around? cheers..
just noticed that it says 64 bit mode….perhaps it is switchable?
Are you on Mac or PC? On PC you can open the shortcut that says Maschine instead of the one that says Maschine (64 bit) if on Mac you can do a “get info” on the Maschine app icon and in there you’ll find a setting to open in 64 bit or 32 bit.
cool…ill try that. cheers
No problem fam!
