  • thank u help me out a little

  • yo when i hit record my joint don't make a sound

  • I was following instructions from your video, but I had a question. Do you have to have an audio interface like Audio Kontrol 1 for the maschine to sample from the internet or can you just connect directly through USB to a laptop or desktop and get the same results. I have Protools Mbox mini.

  • maschine is taking over the producing game freal

  • major crimes!?!!? SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII­IIIIIIIIIIIIIT!!!!!! thanks for the tips dude!!

  • Thats freakin awsome.

  • Quick question, but let's say i wanna record these samples making a live beat with them & then i want to send it to somebody else to hear them.. don't they have to have soundflower on their computer turned on in order to hear it? cause i can't hear my own samples without soundflower being on..

  • when when i do this the quality is bad and staticy? plz help me asap

  • this video is awesome man. but i have a question. at the very first of this video you change your device to SoundFlower [16 ch]. when i do that my only option is the [2 ch]. did i do something wrong. I've made sure to do everything you did.

  • You are the SH.......!!!!! Ive been trying for 3 days to figure this out!!! Thank you!!

  • The Maschine is so smoooth man. Good tut and tune. 

  • When im recording a sample how do i make it to where it stops the previously hit pad from playing when i hit another one??? Someone please help!

  • @CollazoBeats go to module > set choke grp to 1 > set polyphony to 1.

  • i like how you re-sampeled for each pad instead of slicing, i find it only oneshots the individual samples when i slice it onto the pads, so i will do this from now on to get them into an envelope. thanks!

  • When worse comes to worse my ppl come 1st lol jus messing dig the videos man keep it up

  • I like this but, I just hear dilated peoples - worst come to worst. Good job though

  • Awesome video and tutorial. Just ordered this baby today, very excited. I do have one question, does ANYONE have any tips for finding the right BPM for a sample, or tweaking a sample to fit a certain BPM? or is it just trial and error? Much appreciated. Thanks

  • Love that kit. I don't use the same interface, but overall great video.

  • this video should really be title " with sunflower AND an audio Kontrol...

    i need to get an AI soon so unfortunately i cant do this yet.

    othr than leaving out that peice of info, this was one of the most helpfiul vids on the youtube!

    totally helped me with the scenes and stuff

  • @BradenTaylorMusic you dont need audio kontrol, you can sample any sound normally played thru your computer via sound cloud it takes every sound and routes it to one main virtual output which can then be picked up by maschine and can be sampled there for you can sample any audio that you computer can play.

  • @CxxxKiLLa i cant seem to find any videos showing how to do this, could you explain? id love to figure this out its been bugging me for a few weeks now

  • @ mcsg27 you're right about the timestretch feature.Because I have to run Maschine through Ableton to get it how I want it to go.The great thing about Ableton it's very reliable to record with.

  • this is so fuckin dope i can't wait till i get my maschine

  • what you want to do is called timestretching and Maschine does not do that. You can use a DAW like Ableton to do this or a VST like Kontakt

  • @mcsg27 even reason can do it now

  • when I sample a synth note fx and spread it out over several octaves the higher note I play the faster the sample plays, which makes it unuseable. How do I make it stop doing that so it just changse the pitch of the sample and not the speed? Any help is greatly appreciated!

  • Hi, Thanks for the video...it's great but I tried and followed all the steps in this video but still I can't get it to work...Any suggestions?

    Thanks

  • how do you set to group I so that it sustains the sample? been tryin to figure this out

  • @baserocks1 set the envelope to adsr so you can hold the note and sustain the sample

  • @mcsg27 What is the evelope? the main knob? could you step by step me through it? please?

  • @baserocks1 my full Maschine tutorials are available at macprovideo or the Apple store - you can find all the answers you need there in over 4 hours of tutorial content : )

  • link please!

  • @baserocks1 This took me forever to figure out but below the group, in the orange "sound" setting, under the "sampler" tab you will see "voice settings". Just to the left of that there is a little dropdown arrow, click that for other voice options. The second one in the list has an ADSR envelope (pitch/gate/amplitude envelope). You can select the type of envelope under "type": one shot, adsr, etc.

  • Can someone please tell me how I can sample songs& sounds from my iPod and ipad onto the maschine i understand I need a interface but what kind ( USB ?) and my main issue is how to set up the wires if someone could tell me in detail & also is it possible to sample songs & sounds from my iPod on the maschine with just the maschine , iPod , and interface I been searching everywhere for these answers

  • @SOLEATTIC get a USB interface - NI makes the Komplete Audio 6 which is fantastic. you come out of the ipod with 3.5mm jack into a stereo 1/4" input pair that goes into the interface. Record sample into Maschine. Run to Guitar Center or something to get the cable and ask them specifically and they will show you.

  • what kinda snare and kick did you use ? :) good video btw

  • @ARABICHOMIE Licorice Kit from the factory library. One of my favorites!

  • Why do my beats overlap when recording them..

  • @kushandOJallday set the polyphony to "1" so everytime the sample is triggered, it restarts itself.

  • @mcsg27 and go buy my 4 hours of Maschine tutorials at macprovideo for real cheap and learn it all!

  • Does this work with the Maschine Mikro too?

  • @kushandOJallday yes. just the same, but you are much more limited to chopping the samples with only one screen and one knob. I suggest using the mouse more if you own Mikro.

  • @kushandOJallday of course it does..but I think, you can not use it as a pillow ( as good as the big version..by the way: EDU..120 Euro cheaper), because it is a little bit too small. You see..I am in love with mine. really. Best buy of my life

  • Great video but for some reason i can't find that group section you are talking about on 1:41 its frustrating me mines only says polyphony and choke grip why is that do i have to update??? Please contact me soon

  • You guys make it look to easy!! Good Video..

  • I could do this in Fl Studio

  • Dope shit man for real thanks for the help i been had maschine and wanted to sample some stuff and didnt know how to put the chops on the sounds like u did helped a great deal for real ur shit is rocking loving the chop and drums

  • Copying copyrighted sound from the internet is illegal. I don't support it.

  • @whinchacha shut up it's is sampling he is creating new content with it.

  • so much easier than slicing... thank you

  • When I heard that sample I thought "Worst Comes to Worst"

  • Damn thank you for this, been here for over an hour tryin to sample shit off of my MacBook, tried routing through the computer , then the interface, then the macbooks mic was picking up noise. Fuckin annoyed. Thanks for your help it is greatly appreciated.

  • I'm having a problem with the samples sounding muffled somewhat. It doesnt sound like they do on my cpu. What can that be from? Im new to maschine by the way.

  • How do you eq each individual sample, if there was vocals in it.

  • Comment removed

  • could you make a video on how to not have your samples overlap eachother? or explain it atleast? thanks....sick beat.

    

  • Comment removed

  • is there anyway to do this if you have windows

  • @n3phlim audacity. it works great

  • thanx for the helpful video homie! hot song too! one question tho... Does anyone know how to save a song you record as wav? Also, how can you save each individual slice as wav too? Thanx for the help!

  • I've heard this sample a lot, but ur shit was one of the dopest

  • Thank you for this decent tutorial on sampling. Keep them coming! Thanks!

  • is it possible to listen to the sample through headphones as its being recorded?

  • i seriously said "oh shit" once he started duplicating to pads... i'm an mpc user. peepin this maschine

  • what is this audio kontrol thing? i dont have tht

  • THANK YOU MAH NIGGA FINALLY

  • dope video man! learned alot so keep em coming!

  • Should I record with headphones in? Or does it matter?

    Cause i'm recording with some beats by dre headphones studio edition and its coming out with static. : /

  • Yeah, cuz this sample hasn't been used a BILLION times (sarcasm)

  • So I got the Maschine 1.6 and I went to sample but I was wondering how you set the group to 1 so the samples wouldn't overlap. My Maschine software is different than the one that was in the video.

  • @ThatFliWhiteGuy i think you need to set the polyphony setting to 1 instead of 2 or more.

  • maschine is beast

  • I'm VERY new to using Maschine.. when it goes from one scene to the next, the 808s clash on the first count of the next scene. I've set my 808's to legato, but they still clash when changing next scene. Does anyone have step by step instructions for beginners on How do i stop that??????

  • How come when i change the tempo in splice mode the lines dont change????

  • Do you have to have an audio interface for Soundflower to work?

  • @ThatFliWhiteGuy I'm not sure... the more general rule should be that you need an audio interface to do music production regardless.

  • @mcsg27 I'm thinking without the audio interface i won't be able to hear out of my external speakers. Because when I changed the output I couldn't hear from the speakers. Thanks a lot for the info tho.

  • @mcsg27

    ya not regardless/ ive been making music 6 years without a real audio interface and have no problem with it.

  • In the nas song it aint hard to tell, large proffesor samples kool and the gangs n.t

    And i got the song and its got other shit on the horns but they only have the horn in the song... How do i achieve that?

  • help! how do u set the group to 1 so the samples dont over lap? it doesnt give the option u got on the vid after i finished sampling

  • never mind, had to restart maschine -_-

  • i literally have all my settings identical to yours but maschine doesn't recognize the audio being played.

  • can i sample from itunes library

  • my man i cant hear anything when im recording because the output is set to soundflower then when i turn it off and i already recorded i still cant here the sample any help please?

  • if you upload a wav version of a song from itunes onto the maschine, is there a way to delete entire parts of the song so the sample size isn't so big?

  • @mosdefisill yep. you can actually truncate the audio in Maschine to only grab the part you want

  • This helped solve a problem I had. Now Im good ! Thanks !

  • hey bro nice tutorial but I have one problem. When I choose my output as Soundflower (16ch) my sound doesnt work, but my maschine seems to pick it up. How do i make it work so that i can actually hear the music ?

  • @mcsg27 I am having an issue and i am hoping you might be able to help because we both have an audio kontrol. I had no issue physically getting maschine to sample the audio from the internet. I can see the track meter bouncing. My problem is i have no sound output from my headphones. Any ideas?

  • Great, lets discuss some options, how do i get in contact with you?

    

  • @mmkhb654123 send me a personal message here and we can go from there

  • hey great video man !! do you do any music lessons????

  • @mmkhb654123 I have in the past. The internet is also quite nice with the Skype option to share your screen now.

  • This is all great but the problem here is still the quality of the samples...for example YouTube Videos or other sources. Normally for quality sampling you need min. 320kbps of source, otherwise it will all sound terrible when it gets louder. Whats your opinion?

  • @MedleyMo to be honest, I've never noticed an issue. Never get the watery sound and never had volume issues. Just always keep an eye on the source material and find the cleanest possible.

  • @MedleyMo that's up to the individual. 

  • is this the default DAW Software that comes with the Maschine?

  • Thats so cool! How do i sample from my iTunes library?

  • @Pompolius same way

  • @SoulN1Muzik when you hit the sampling button, hit the slice button and there will be a display of the sample's tempo on the left LCD

  • when I set output to Soundflower 16 from my AI the sound cuts off........Is there a way to do this while using Maschine as a Plugin inside your DAW (Logic preferably)

  • great video man, but i cant get my sample to 'duplicate' to another pad... any ideas??

    i seem to have tried every combo of touching or holding the pads/button.

  • @hemicalais hold down duplicate, then hit the pad you want to copy, followed by the pad you want to paste to

  • @nicetit5 did you ever figure it out? im at that point too

  • ur layout looks diff then mine...mine says voice setting polyphony...choke grip etc....i dont have group 

  • Comment removed

  • When I set sound flower as my output I can't hear anything anymore because there is no existing sound transfer....how can I get it to operate in both ways?

    Thanks

  • @Diverse412TV I have the same issue, it worked the first time I did and now I can't set Soundflower as my output or it just cuts the sound out.

  • @ZosoDelta try clicking on the soundflower icon at the top of your screen and under 16ch go to built in output

  • amazing considering that took like 3 minutes to make!

  • just what I needed man thank you so much I'm gunna flip through all your vids

  • Comment removed

  • @CutlassCraft set to external source

  • name of original song?

  • @joed0ng William Bell - I forgot to be your lover

  • So helpful dude. thanks!

  • I'm not sure what's up with my sound preferences. I followed your instructions, and for some reason it's not working. Not completely sure why.

  • @RockWonder210 Also, I'm using an M-Audio Mobile Pre usb interface. I'm not sure if that makes a difference.

  • what the fuck you sampled this?! this is a sick instrumental!

  • also how do you filter the lyrics to get rid or the background music

  • Hey i don't get how you make each pad cut off when you hit another. At 1:42 you said Set group to "I" what do you mean??????? Or anyone else that can tell me please???

  • @jcwoody516earthlink look on the video. you set the group to 1 so that each time you hit the pad, it retriggers rather than playing on top of the sample. it refers to the polyphony i believe

  • @mcsg27 Oh Jesus Christ. I found it. I feel real dumb now... Thanks lol

  • WORST COMES TO WORST MY PEOPLES COME FIRST =P

    This track has been sampled so so many times! Haha

  • @mcsg27 Not saying I'm cooler, Just saying sampling off the internet is the lamest shit ever....To each his own though, & I don't rap or write, I make beats....I'ma CHILL ya'll keep youtube'n!!!

  • @mcsg27 I feel you with the reply bro. It's about how the music point blank. No how you make it... Also, it's about making it the cheapest way possible!

  • When I attempt to check the little flower on the top of my screen to see if it's set to my digi002, I get the multicolor spinning wheel. Did I do something wrong?

  • Is there a soundflower equivalent for Windows?

  • growing pains ludacris :)

  • We definitly need more people like you in the world. Great tutorial without the bS. Keep up the good work! Finally a breath of fresh air!

  • thanks for uploading man

  • hey where  do you get your at

  • I appreciate your tutorial fella. BUT you need not give away underground 'trade secrets' Dog never show your hand! Not that these fools couldn't figure this out on their own, it's just that, you know, let them figure it out in their own time. Don't give these fools a short cut. Oh well too late 17K plus. Okay all you dudes that just got schooled by a nice guy that ment well, take this and make some dope with it. Good luck - from an O.G. beat maker that was there from the begining.

  • @D84D Im sayin the same thing...hopefully not too many see this, not to hate..its just part of the game. I mean seriously, if we all tell our secrets, we will lose what we worked hard to learn...anyway, great tutorial, keep the music flowing---another OG in the music world....KAGE, Peace

  • Comment removed

  • your tutorial would help A TON more if you actually spoke during it, cause where you change your group to "I" mine doesn't look like yours...and idk if it's supposed to be " i " or if the font is just weird and makes the number 1 look like a capital i. now i'm stuck and can't figure this out...

  • this may sound dumb but... how does he cut off the sample and switch to another sample in the middle of the song when he is putting it together. basically, how does he stop one sample from looping and begin another. thanks! beat is cool as

  • I don't see where I can select my audio interface in soundflowerbed. How do you do that? I can't hear what I am recording.

  • DUDE UR THE F##KIN MAN!!!!!

  • DUDE YOU ARE MY HERO !! THANKS IT HELPED A LOT !!!

  • Comment removed

  • Great tutorial... You should make a couple of more! But this one got to the point as far as sampling. thanks!

  • You should explain as well as illustrate, I hate silent videos.

  • Worst comes to worst, my peoples comes first

  • Hey, can you still do this without an external audio interface? Like, can I still record samples by using my macs internal sound card?

  • Bro!!! I just want to thank you so much for this tutorial. I just got the Maschine and been screwing around with Soundflower and this is exactly what I have been looking to do. This type of tutorial and ease of sampling you will start to see some sick shit coming out by me and many other producers. Thanks again!! Back to the beats!!! Check out my page if you want. Couple tight beats! Peace

  • @ccaseyj9 thanks for the love, glad this helped

  • thanks for the tutorial man, i got a problem tho. i used this same vid to set up my old mac, but now im on the new mac, and it dosent work.. did everything right, could it be because im on 10.6.4?

  • hey im having trouble installing soundflower...any suggestions i own a OS.X 10.4 mac ?

  • im having trouble installing soundflower....any suggestions i have os.x 10.4

  • well done mate. Fantastic tutorial, and what a great little track you put together.. too bad the old school sound of hip-hop isn't still banging.. you'd be making some big bucks ;) really well done.. thoroughly enjoyed the whole vid :)

  • peep my vids!

  • Great job!!!

  • Looking through the comments, I realize that a few of us are asking the same question. LOL! Sorry about the redundancy.

  • Soundflower is exclusive to mac right? Do you know of a similiar program that can be used with windows 7 (64 bit) that can communicate with Maschine in the same fashion?

  • Man! Thanks I got my Maschine Monday and this has been one of the few, truly informative vids i have seen on here concerning Maschine. Again, thanks!

  • Still one of the best info vids on Maschine..LOL ..man I send this link to people still !!!

    So many people are getting maschine and trying to figure out how to sample off the web. Thanks bro !

  • Great beat, any recommendations of slicing and editing music together just like yours? What made you choose the music and add the snare and bass sound?

  • Cool, how about sampling from Itunes? Do I have to use the soundflower software too? Just got my maschine and I definitely want to just sample 70 and 60s rock songs. theslomo2003@yahoo.com if you want to hit me back

  • ill

    

  • Good video no talking straight to the point.....

  • real cool video! thx for tutorial!

  • please keep on posting vids, i subscribed. This is the future

  • Can this be done without a mac/ soundflower? because for the price of a mac i can get a twice as powerful sony but this internet sampling would be very important for me

  • @beavis226 I'm, pretty sure. Check the Maschine forums to see. There is a thread in there somewhere where someone posted the app name.

  • Can this be done without a mac/ soundflower? because for the price of a mac i can get a twice as powerful sony but this internet sampling would be very important for me

  • dope!

  • GENIUS!
