What’s up MT Family
This is just a quick video showing the process of drag and drop audio into Logic, wanted to show how to do it with individual instruments as well and not just a full group.
This makes it easy to mix and arrange each instrument separately, giving you more control over your overall song.
For some it may be unnecessary, but for those that want deep control over every part of their song separately, this is how it’s done in Logic.

Good Tutorial. Thanks for holding down the mac end of things.
no doubt fam…mac !!!
couldnt hear anything Kids yelling in da background son
you know I be on ya
great tutorial didnt know maschine would export like that and why didnt ya normalize the tracks while exporting whats up wit the 16 bit instead of 24 and I see ya wit da expansions for nexus
those are sound effects i add to my videos to give it that down home feel. ..LOL
Yeah its cool you doin vids like this man shows the fam side of MT the laid back atmosphere in here. Thats why I pay my $10 every month You and SJ keep it real fam style in here. A lot of people in the MT fam have wife and kids my self included. So we dont mind the ambience in the background LOL. Keep the vids coming pajamas and all son!!!!! dont forget the pink light finger nails LOL!!!!!!!
Yeah brotha lol, that’s what it never bothers me, I got kids running round and all that too lol
no you didn’t take it back to the pink nails son!!! lol
Holding it down on the Mac end, but his file wont play on my iPhone? Wtf’s up with that?! Lol
Good vid brotha….lol @ Nek, I’ll reformat the vid for ya lol..
A vid made by a Apple user, FOR Apple users, being reformatted by a PC user to work on an Apple mobile device…I love this, seriously! lol So awesome! hahaha
That being said, can’t wait to see the vid. 😀
LOL!!! See if it works for ya now bruh lol
LOL
Nice one knock love the mac vids since I’m learning it all at once. Mac, Maschine, music and work and most of all can’t forget the kids and wifey. LOL alot going on fam!!!
Brick…whats up man… thanks bro… as you can hear in the video.. Its like romper room in my house. They are a level up too…lol… Ilove the sound of my kids playing. Gonna start cutting the vids during the day though…so its more quiet.
It’s a dope vid Knock. Wish I knew about that export function when I was still using Logic.
Question: Are all the files you exported in that “batch” export the same loop length because you made each pattern the same number of bars? Or when exporting, does Maschine automagically make all patterns the same length as your longest one?
whats up nekk…. yeah the pattern length is the result of maschine. the exports will be the same length as the scenes. so if you have 12 scenes and the song is 5 minutes it will loop for that long.
Word. Ima have to check that out.
Another question: When doing drag and drop audio, I find that some of my parameters aren’t carrying over, such as attack, decay, sustain, etc. Off the top, do you know what could be causing that?
That shouldn’t be happening, but the regular audio export seems to be the cleanest way to get a bunch of stuff out properly…but drag and drop is still cool for individual loops and such to grab them quickly. But it shouldn’t mess with your envelope settings.
When I’m exporting full tracks I use export, if it’s a loop here and there I do drag and drop.
Yeah. My attacks were completely non existant. Totally changed the sound I had. No bueno.
The video is not there anymore ? (doesn’t appear)
Fine over here, I’m on my phone too. Check your browser and/or flash updates.
all my set up is up to date… and the video don’t want to play arrrggh :-/, i’ll chek it later, thanks
Maybe try a different browser, you seem to be the only one having the issue, not sure what’s up.
Knock this was priceless. I have been tracking all my drums individually. You are the man. Now I can track only certain ones, But most importantly I can have everything single in a flash. Thanks
I had no idea you could export the sounds all at once like this. For me …a game-changer. Thank you SO much.
Quick question: Does the dragged audio include all effects settings and automation from Maschine printed to the track? Kinda like resampling into Maschine directly would result in?
Cause that would be super cool for freeing up memory in Maschine and getting sounds into Logic for better arrangement options…
yeah it drags with your fx on it
Thanks, Joe. I’m definitely getting Logic now that it’s 2 bills, I think this is going to hugely improve my song composition, since I can’t seem to get excited about Maschine’s sequencer.
Ok, this seems easy enough…but how come when I drop and drag two groups from maschine (just basic drum patterns) they end up being out of sync. Each drum pattern/group is 2 bars, each is quantized and sound perfectly in sync in Maschine. But when I drag it into Logic and loop them for 8 bars they are not in sync.
Make sure in your audio export options say “loop optimize” in the file export menu
Thanks Joe.
Did it work for ya bro?
No, well yes and no. Getting frustrated. It worked when I did it on a whole new Logic project. But not when I try to add the same Maschine drums on that beat (Farewell) that I was working on. I did it the exact same way, but the blue audio region that says ‘Mayhem Kit’ is playing the Apple drum loop, not the Maschine drum beat I created. I muted the original Apple drum loop but it still playing through the track where I dragged the Maschine beat. And then when I solo the ‘Mayhem Kit’, again, all I’m getting… Read more »
hmmm, check the bus routing, that’s weird, I don’t have logic so….man I need to get a mac for days like this 😉
this is great but i get a popping/clicking sound at the end of the sound????
Do you have loop optimize selected in your export options?
when i drag and drop my sounds from maschine to logic its like the fx and stuff ive put on have weekend,for example i used an 808 kick into a bassline but when dragged into logic it becomes more of a kick again, anyone no how to solve this as its driving me crazy?
i have maschine as a plugin in track 1 in logic drag and drop and the sounds arnt the same
You can also use the file menu to export your audio instead of dragging, and then drag in the wave files
Boom ………..There it is !
Hey MT fam,
I’m still in the beginner level but have made great strides thanks to your tutorials and have finally caught on with a track I like but was kind of making it on the fly which had me thinking of the final end result of finishing it which landed me to this tutorial. Is there a finalization of a track in Maschine or does it have to be eventually exported? I do have logic so I can always export it if need be but was just wondering.
You finish a track in maschine since you can load any plugins or effects you wish, just depends on what you mean by finalization.
by finalization basically have it mapped out to play like it is in logic. All of the beats I have for the track are in groups in 1 scene. Just thinking of the making a pattern layout now
yeah you can string multiple scenes together with different patterns from the groups to make a full song

Thanks!!
No problem!
