Joe,
My family. This vid alone was worth the price of admission. Before your site, my production style was “affectionally” known as organized confusion. No more. You and Knock keep doin your thang. Adversity will come. You WILL rise above it and succeed beyond anything you previously imagined possible.
My man.
That’s whasup fam, we just trying to share our knowledge in our own way yo! Little things like this have helped me get over the created hump many times and I figured others will see the potential with all these sample libraries out here, when you can just use them to create your own samples to chop up lol.
Thanks for the support fam, we gonna keep pushin!
Did you and Knock explored this all youself? I think you guys know more about Maschine then NI itself does haha
Maybe they know stuff, but they wont share it, so cool that you guys are willing to do this and make us understand Maschine better! Thanks 4 that!
Ahahahaha, man, we just want NI to focus on making this thing better and better, and we’ll make sure you know everything you need to know about it 🙂
Maschine is a monster!!! This site is cool and very informative. Nice layout and I like how you guys have everything organized. Nice job dude’s keep it up!! This is the kind of sites worth paying for, precisely when you do not have the time to go through the manual and just need answers fast, when you’re producing you need answers fast!!! Things come up and this site has it all!! Love it!
Word, Maschine is awesome and thanks for the love on the site! We are still growing and always adding new stuff so make sure you get your requests in as well to help shape the content!
Glad you find it useful, means everything to us!
this site it the truth……and you guys are on some super hero ish with the response time…….this is my music home from now on man. this site will for eva keep me humble…..thnx to all who made this site happen
Hahahaha, thanks fam, we try to keep it personal round here man, we just like helping folks without all the drama so we wanted a spot to do that. We try to answer as soon as we can but not always instantly of course, but if we are around a computer or something you can bet it will be answered quickly as possible!
gotta respect that. off to study..thnx agin! 300
No doubt fam.
Is there any way we can save our own group WITH the samples associated to it?
Let’s imagine i want to load that group into another computer that will have another folder and files structure…in that case i’d need the group file and the samples associated to it. I could locate the samples manually but…any way of moving the group and the samples?
Thanks and keep the good work!
We’ve been asking for this for a while, right now the only way is to “save project with samples” so you can save your project file and it’s samples into it’s own folder, which will include any custom groups you’ve made.
I think you just answered the question I have been asking myself. But to clarify. I have an Ext. Drive, I want to drag and drop sounds into Maschine. Save them as a kit, and have them accessible from other projects. without needing the original folder the samples were in.
Would I have to open the project that contains these samples then do a Save as.. ?
If you do a “save project with samples” it will copy your samples to the folder you use. So if you open that project the kit will be in there. You could then do a save as on the project to save it into your library, as long as you have that project folder with the samples, you will be able to open the kit. You could also just make multiple projects of 8 kits, save project with samples, then open the project and save the kits so you will have them with you at all times on your regular… Read more »
Awesome, tried it out. Just what I needed. Thanks SJ.
Perfect 🙂
It’s actually a cool way to build up your kit library.
Great video thanks!
Any chance of a tutorial explaining how Underworld achieved that time stretching/grain effect on this recent NI video –
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=egPncQ36G-w
with so many vst plugins out there it’s hard to tell, it could have been third party or just the internal grain stretcher. Without being there with them it’s hard to say for sure but we will see.
Thankx For the Info SaintJoe.
no problem fam
Wait let’s say i made a beat right? And I wanted to save it and work on it later on. Would this be the way to do it? I am new to Maschine and I made a hot beat but I saved only the pattern and when I opened it to work on it again i heard nothing : ( Please how can I save my work and come back to edit and finish it bro?
save the project file. When you want to save a whole beat, just save the project.

Perfect God bless bro
word, glad to help bro.
Hey saintjoe. I think what you are doing is marvelous! I learned soooooooooooooo much from here than that stupid manual book that came with the Maschine (please forgive me language). I have a suggestion to make. You have given me all the tools to get around Maschine and I thank you for that but there is just one lesson that I think is missing which is how to put together a song using scenes and patterns. Now I went on YouTube and found a video of you explaining that and here is the link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mC3L5o4pRuc On the video on YouTube… Read more »
Thank you sir! You are not the first to ask this question, we are definitely working on the best way to do it. I also suggest watching some of the workflow/process videos, where we build songs from scratch and put the patterns into scenes, etc.
https://maschinetutorials.com/category/workflow-and-process
these may help out as well to understand the process of creating the song from patterns, etc.
Oh I see bro. Thank you! The Maschine company needs to contact you and higher you because that bald headed guy is so confusing. Thanks once again I will look at those workflow and process videos but when the new video you are making for making songs comes out please let me know. Take care and God bless
Thanks for the support fam! We all learn from different styles and techniques, Josh does good, I’m just the polished video guy, I keep it raw and uncut lol, just like if we were in the studio together.
You will definitely know when we get it posted.
Great vid. Organization is key and you made this a LOT less daunting. Awesome site and well worth the subscription.
Glad to help!
Build his own kit is very useful but how it’s possible we are limited to 16 pads only ? with a mpc we have 4 banks of 16 pads for one program (group). how it’s possible that Maschine doesn’t do that ?
Any solutions ?
If you need to have more than 16 sounds in a single kit, you can build a kit in the sample map, building a large kit on a single pad and using keyboard mode. Check this video
https://maschinetutorials.com/how-to-build-a-drum-kit-on-a-single-pad
Need to start making my own kits. Seems like it’ll speed up my work flow.
Yessir, I assumed you already were LOL!!!
Hahahaha nah man. I manually search for each drum sound everytime lol. Never bothered me or made me feel slow…until now. Lol
Wow! LOL, it’s all good though, Maschine makes that quick too so…no worries lol
Haha… I’m tellin ya man. Y’all think I know wtf I’m doing lol
Hahahahaha shenanigans man! LOL
awww man, you have to create a project and save with samples? Mmmm…I guess I can work with that. Unless they’ve made it to where you can save the samples with the group?
You can’t save the samples with the group directly, but I’ve found a workaround depending on how you create your kits, search saving kits with samples 🙂
Eeeeexcelent Smithers, excellent.
Hahahahahahaha!
small tutorials like this really helps the customers to understand better. Now, what about creating custom kits from both Maschine’s and a chop up sample, where do you save it? and where is this type of kit saved in. Thanks
You can save it in the same way, maschine will remember where all your stuff is located. Your samples will be in your recordings folder unless you save them manually somewhere else, and the factory samples will still be in the factory folder, the kit will point to each of them and know where they are when you save it.
Completely agree with the above ………this site works so well because the sessions are all in 5 or 6 minute chunks
Cheers
cool, glad to help!
