This tutorial gives you a rundown of one of the new features in Maschine 1.6 that let’s you layer samples better. This feature is called Pad Link Groups and it lets you stack samples and trigger them together while still having full control of each sample. In this video I explain the difference between master and slave settings, and show you how they react in a quick loop just to give you an understanding of how they work and why you would use them.
Pad linking and especially the master/slave settings let you get some good dynamics. For example, you can set one pad in a link group to master, so that it triggers every pad in the same link group (there are 8 available). This could be perfect to use for a fat kick or fat snare, however, you can set various samples/pads from that same link group to be “slaves”. When you do this, they will be triggered with all the other samples in the group every time a master pad is hit.
HOWEVER….
If you hit a slave pad by itself, it only triggers itself. This is perfect for adding ghost notes, break downs, and overall variation when used in combination with the master pads.
As usual, if you have any questions just ask!

@saintjoe .peep this shawty ,so i just tired to layer a kick with a clap .. the kick was the master and the clap was the slave… lol that just sounded like some plantation talk.. but anyway.. the kick jumped out of tune and the clap elevated…what am i doing wrong? or do i have a glitch .
it could just be that your drum sounds don't mesh well, can you post an audio example of what it's doing?
Ok I'll do that later today around 6
cool, i’ll check it out
i think i found the issue… user error .. some how i changed the tempo of the kick.. my bad..
word! probably turned the knob while touching the pad and changed the pitch of it 🙂
finally
I get 1.6 beta version
by using browser Internet ''OPERA''
🙂 🙂
awesome man! welcome to 1.6 🙂 yeaaaaaaah boyeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee lol
i got one crash dll with waves version 7 during the scanning plug ins
anyway I can work nevertheless
make sure you report the crash so they can fix it.
I haven’t used Pad Linking yet but this will be very useful because I tend to lay up my sounds (especially kicks) for fullness.
Much appreciated video.
yeah it’s a dope feature, still waiting for regular pad layering too personally
a saint joe anyway to do regular pad layering yet? ive been using geist lately to layer then i resample in maschine. but i always want to adjust something in my layering. Then i have to go back in geist then adjust then resample again.
any easy way like in geist yet?
nothing like Geist yet, though we’ve been asking for it. But here is a tutorial that shows something kinda similar, but not quite

I’m gonna try this out, unless there is a new way? What is the “regular” way you were speaking of SJ?
There is no new way, yet. You can use the “+add” feature when browsing samples to add samples to the same pad as well.
+add? Can you do that from the Mikro? I’m awat from it at the moment.
Yes, but you don’t have the Mikro anymore LOL
hahah how do you link on the mikro though for real?
Press pad mode, then you have to go to one of the pages, by default it’s on 1/4 (don’t have mikro with me right now) but you look for the one that says link group. I think it’s page 3.
Matter fact, look at this one, I do it in this video

Man…when did I post that?! Lol
Man it was a while back, I just found it sitting in my inbox so figured I should reply LOL hahahahahaha!
Well now I blame my dislike for Mikro on your lack of reply. Lol this could have been the thing that made me a production beast on Mikro!!! Lol
Hahahahaha! I’ll take the hit on that one then LOL
Ahahaha or that wack ass knob!
Or that LOL
how do you add multiple samples to a pad’s “map” mode in the sampler, and ensure that all the sounds will trigger at once? I find that workflow more convenient

Why did “sound 2” get painted into the grid when it had no sound on it and it wasn’t being hit?
that’s because I had the two pads linked together
great vid bro
Glad to help ya fam
