This video in the software interface overview series takes a look at the header and explains some of the basic controls you will use when operating Maschine
This includes the transport areas, file menus, volume control, swing, cpu meter, and other general functions that you need to be aware of when using the product.

I just can't figure out how to start a blank project. i tried 'New' from 'File' menu, and also 'New' from the header tab.. but it reverts back to the last project i was working on. so every-time, i am having to save the project with different name and deleting data from last project – quite cumbersome workaround… thanks.
go into preferences and where it says startup, uncheck reload last project. Also, you may have saved a specific project as your default template, so make sure that box is unchecked and also make sure you save a blank template as your default. Watch the video on saving your own custom project template to see how.
I made a blank template file by manually deleting all the data.. it works fine now.. thanks Saint Joe.
dope fam!
what up jo….i gotta million questions so i hope u dont kick me off the site haha but i wanted to no if theres a way to just str8 rec. with out those blocks……..kida like in ligic…cuz im done for now tryna team the two up haha
No there is no linear recording like that in Maschine, only thing you can do to get close to something like that would be to make a super long pattern that is like really long, like 100 bars or something lol.
we’ve been asking for a more flexible arranger but Maschine is really about building things together in patterns, I’m sure they will update it to allow it to be more flexible but the main idea behind it’s workflow is building in patterns.
Haha yea that’s what I want…is there a vid for that…no wait this is m.t….so can u show me where that vid is at haha..I no its in here somewhere and good looks man….thx to this site I no how to use my 2nd sword now
SaintJoe… Can’t say enough about how dope this website is. It’s just exactly what I was looking for. What a value for the money. Anyway, question…
I know you can control some of the Header Controls with the Maschine Hardware itself (tempo, swing, volume) But can the “panic switch” and the opening and closing of the browser also be controlled with the Maschine Hardware? Also, can you open and close any of the other window views within the software from the Maschine Harware? Thanks yo
Welcome bro, glad you dig it!
You can hit the navigate button then you will see on the right screen browser, arranger, params, and mod.
This lets you show/hide those areas from the controller. The panic button is not on the controller though, not sure why. Unless I’ve missed it lol.
Why cant i watch videos past the first 2 ?
Not sure what you mean, if you can see any videos you should be able to see them all, what happens when you try to watch them?
its Paypal that’s havin issues because i moved country i need to start over sorry man
Oh you can only see the free stuff, gotcha. Yeah Paypal doesn’t like changes much, they pretty picky actually. Let me know if you need any help from me to get it sorted.

Hello, My Maschine cpu monitor has been acting up lately….I load a couple of sounds, make a sequence and all of
a sudden the meter starts jumping and i hear pops and clicks…I running a iMac and I just upgraded to the latest OS…
Im also running 1.82 in 32 bit mode….
Thanks,
have you tried increasing your audio buffer?
where is the audio buffer located…
Are you talking about the sample rate and latency in the audio settings in maschine….Im going to see
if that will fix the problem….
Thanks
Well that is related, but your audio device should have an audio buffer setting
oh ok….im using the focus rite pro40…
I would try raising up your buffer/latency in there and see what it does.
Hey Saint Joe, I’ve been paying for this subscription so I wouldn’t forget, now I’m ready to work. I purchase the Mac Pro and have the Maschine Mikro. Is there anything I should know related to the two of them working together? and Where are the specific tutorials for it?
Follow the installation instructions, once you install the software and plug it in, it should work. You can watch Mikro specific sections but I suggest getting familiar with the Maschine software itself by starting here https://maschinetutorials.com/maschine-2-quickstart/
Thanks
