If you’re like me, you like having some of your favorite instrument and plugin presets in the Maschine browser…I mean…it’s pretty dope for sure! But you may have held off because you don’t feel like tagging or saving then going back to find what you saved to tag properly.
For instance, if I take something like Rig from Big Fish Audio, it has a bunch of categories…and I want to move those categories into Maschine. I could just save all the patches and give them the type in their name, then go back and resave them into categories.
But the way I’m showing here allows you to say, save all the leads with the proper tags as you save them, so it’s easy to save multiple presets with the proper categories instead of having to tag them after you save them.
Basically I show how to save your presets with tags on them instead of having to tag after the fact

Thanks Joe, this is well needed. A little time consuming like you said, but I have what I call “Tech Sessions” where you just organize or trouble shoot your setup for any current or future problems.
A few hours aside can make a big different when you get in your flow.
Same here fam, in fact, I’m in the middle of one right now LOL
nice tip , i have never paid attention to this fonction , there’s so much useless sound so keeping the best in a corner while we diggin into the librairies thats a good point for later .
yeah man, I like to have my favorite sounds and my fingertips
MAN I AM POP LOCKING !!! I am about to go update my my dubstep bases so I can load them from hardware !!! BOO YA KA !!! Thanks Fam
yeah man!!!
this is a great one – it’s going to take forever though but it’s worth it….is there a way to save the tags?
a backup?
Actually once you tag them, they tags are in the actual file itself, but you can backup your database as well.

Has this been suggested to the NI and the makers of Kontakt modules to include a feature that will give you the option or automatically do this?
Automatically do what? Import patches? Yep, and I’m hoping to see it show up in the future. But the thing about batch import would be, it would just import all your patches, it will not tag them how you want. That’s usually how most batch imports work, that’s how it was in Kore. Because each library and instrument is different. The way I do it, you can have total control over your categories and tags. Also, batch import depends on how an instrument shows it’s presets to the host, so not all will even work with a batch import. I… Read more »

or you could resave it as the same name and overwrite the original
i’ll tell you something though….you get real good at understanding the browser after a full day of this- making it all obsessively sleek lol
Yes indeed
THanks for the info SaintJoe.
No doubt fam, you know it!
this one changed (or is changing) my whole flow – really speeds things up – great having the sound palatte all in one place – it’s awesome…i like not having to load kontakt unlesss I’m going to tweak a sound… i don’t think i’ll ever finish – but it’s great; i just figured out a way to do it a bit faster – you can copy the name right out of kontakt – of course it was after a week of doing it the longer way… 1. In Kontakt – hit the right arrow (it’s after the words of the… Read more »

Great tip….been meaning to do this – but keep putting it off.
Might have to set a few hours aside for this one quiet afternoon.
Thanks SJ

Hahahahaha, man most of it is from my own personal use/needs 🙂

If you mean the plugin bank you do it this way

Damn homie, your on the job with the reply. All my Kontakt presets come up in the instruments folder so its just easier to browse this way. Thanks again.
No doubt, I feel you fam, I used to have mine in there too
