Here is the Pro Tools tutorial video on tracking out audio in real time from the Maschine plugin
Again, just another option, I prefer drag and drop…but if you want to capture your performance in real time as separate audio tracks, here’s how to do it in Pro Tools
I show you how to setup the proper routing, busing, external outputs, and everything else you need to record your tracks live into Pro Tool.

Nice man, Pro Tools is definitely a lot easier than Logic in this area, really clean. I got another one coming with Reaper, it’s pretty sick too.
Good looking bro. I was doing the drag and drop and it took crazy long yo but this is what I needed fam. Is this possible to do with the Hush vst after I already have my in and outs completed?
Way easier than i thought…. I was setting midi tracks and audio to make this work, thats y i was so not likin pro tools for this fuction… Much better than logic fo sho
So what is the drag n drop method? This is probably how I would do it so to know the drag n drop would b the next option for me….

Wow if u can just drag n drop the audio into your DAW as waves I don’t see a reason to do it any other way!
Some people prefer to capture their actual performance in realtime. All their muted, solos, filter tweak, fx tweaks, and stuff like that. You can’t do that using drag and drop. So its just another method. I find audio export to be the fastest all around though, faster than drag and drop as well.
Thanks fam. I been using pro tools for a long time now…. This helped me out alot. .
what would i do witout MT.com….????
maaaan….good lookin out on this one knocks!
Knock, I have a problem that’s been troubling me for a few days now.. The problem is when I load the Maschine as a plugin in Protools, it keeps loading a old project.. When try and create a new project it just wont do it.. The old project remains.. I deselected the option in preferences, that says dont load last project.. It does the samething in Ableton as well.. What the heck is going on here? I can open up a saved project.. Very weird.. Any help is greatly appreciated..
I have the 1.7.2 update as well… I even went as far as installing the update again, but the problem still remains..
If you look in preferences, you probably have the project that keeps opening setup as the default project for when using it as a plugin. I’d just delete everything out of the project, so that it’s totally default, and save that project as “plugin default” then go back into maschine preferences and point to the new project instead of the one that keeps loading.
Saintjoe, thanks for the quick response.. I will follow your instructions and post back the results..
Cool, keep me posted fam
It worked exactly has you presented it saintjoe… Thanks for your immediate help in this matter…. MT.com rocks!!
Great sir, now go have some fun 🙂
Good shxxt. great vid
Thanks man
this works for my mobile setup. i have mikro for my travels so i do errthang in mikro and i can track into protools. my home setup i have the big bro wit my xs rack as modules into protools. im glad i bought protools. logic was pissin me off wit the routing midi and audio.
Good news fam!
I cant get my m-audio usb fast track pro to configure with maschine. it keeps saying my sample rate isnt supported. i just need everything set up properly so i can actually learn
Have you tried changing the sample rate? What is it set at currently?
Thanks for this one i was doing it the long way im glad im back!!!
hello i followed the above video. when I go into protools and create an instrument track then select machine it says midi out port 0 then i click channel 1. i then made an audio track but when i click on input it won’t let me choose plug – in. am i missing something
Did you already assign the maschine outputs to a bus so you could send it to the audio track?
Hi Saintjoe. I figured out the problem. i had to uninstall then reinstall pro tools again. it works now. thanks for the help
Nikki…glad you got it working. I have to re install my protools again also because I have upgraded my whole setup ..I actually came here to answer your question..but I see you and Joe got it worked out.. any more pro tools questions I will be here. BOOM !!
I cant find Mashcine in the instrument track i made sure it was in the folder , and in all the folder i check the dll was there
protools requires the rtas not the vst, if you didn’t install the rtas plugin of maschine it won’t work in protools
so do i just use the main disc and install the rtas
Yeah, run the installer and it should give you the option
Thanks
please tell me its not going to erase track i already have save
because i already started the install
it shouldn’t mess with your user files
i said i was going to downgrade so i was just going to do the update again but you said i should be good
if you installed an older version you’ll have to install the update again but your user files like projects should be fine either way
up and running everythings ok thanks
cool man!
i set it up like the video and im getting no sound
Make sure it’s routed in Maschine properly to use it’s external outputs.
can you transfer audio tracks from machine to pro tool le 8…..i cant get no audio on the pro tools……or do you need pro tools 9 or higher…….
you should be able to set this up in either, I’m assuming LE allows you to route audio from plugins?
yes i routed the audio……but i cant get no sound……on the instrument tracks on the pro tools…….the video yall got up on here ..your mans doing it on pro tools 9…….either i’m missing something or is it a software issue…???
Where did you route the audio? Do you have the audio track set to monitor the input coming from Maschine?
and i’m on a macbook pro…
okay ..now i see how it works wit the plug in…………my question is…..how can i bring up songs i already got saved in maschine…and transfer the tracks at the same time……or do you have to build one track at a time as a plug in……..does pro tools 9 do that…and le 8 doesnt….???because when i go to the plug in …it takes me to a clean slate….on the maschine…….or i’m i making any cents…lol…
Open it as a plugin, then go to the maschine file menu and open your project
ok……..thats what i was missing…..opening the files on the plugin…….thanks
cool fam, glad to help
Maybe you can assist me with one problem I’ve came across while tracking in Real time in Pro Tools.
I am using PT9 MP and when it’s tracking out, certain sounds will suddenly drop (cutoff) while it’s tracking.
After reviewing this video, it still does that. Is there anything that I’m doing wrong on my end?
Nothing I know of that should do that, do you have any sounds set in choke groups or is it a polyphony issue on the group? Can you track it down to specific types of sounds? Are they plugins or samples?
Any sound, it could be the stock sounds I am using one minute and the next time I’m tracking it could be sounds from random kits.
I would check audio buffer settings or other audio related settings in PT, maybe even the disk streaming settings.
cool.. thanks for the help
No problem
I recently got pro tools 11 and am trying to record drums as individual tracks… I’ve follow all the steps on this video and no matter what I do I can’t get it to register on the audio tracks when I assign the ext. in machine and pro tools. If all the sounds are set to group then it will play through the instrument track, but I want individual recordings of each piece of the set as an audio file so I can pan separate sounds and change levels…. What am I doing wrong? Is there something like a plugin… Read more »
Hey Tony, sorry for the delay, did you setup the audio tracks to receive from the Maschine instrument track?
Im trying to open Maschine 2.0 in Pro tools 10 but I only see the option to select the older version of Maschine (1.8)
Any Suggestion on what I’m doing wrong? Im running a macbook pro..
Thanks,
M
Make sure you installed the proper plugin format for 2.0, rtas I believe for version 10 (maybe aax but I’m not sure)
Ok.. I was just checking that, and I think I’m sure I did a custom install for 2.0 which contained the aax I believe and If I’m not mistaken the rtas as well. But when I go into my plugin folder in the digi design folder it only has the plugin for 1.8, Is there a way for me to go back and check and see if I installed the correct format and if not just select it without having to re-install everything?
Thanks,
Not sure if you can only install the plugin, you may have to go through the install again. Unless it gives you an option to “update” the install when you run it.
ok thanks
i figured it halfway…I had upgrade to protools 10, Now I’m able to see other plugins such as battery aax plugin, but i still can’t see the maschine aax plugin, I even tried re installing machine 2.0. I guess I will have to find another alternative to separating my files until i can find out whats wrong…
Thanks for the help SaintJoe…
Peace
Seems weird, maybe contact NI support, as I don’t have a copy of PT but I don’t think there is anything special you have to do to make it show up.
man I am still on that pro-tools 9
