NI Maschine Demo @ GC 1 (Feb 2009)

[KBEEofficial]

Had to watch these few vids again.... iv'e now had the maschine 6months and these vids sold it to me. Magical vids when you think that these also sold you a maschine Tasherre... Legendary vids man

[tasherredenajetic]

@KBEEofficial C'mon man, I was sold before this video. I was sold from the unveiling at NAAM that year. Speaking of which, that's today!

[93n371cfr34k]

Can you store the samples in it and play the controller by itself without being attached to PC later?

[blacknight811]

@93n371cfr34k No the computer is basically the brains and the controller is the just tells the computer what you want it to do. The beauty of it is that it's so easy to pick it up and work it that it makes beat making an organic experience. I'm coming from an MPC and Maschine beats the pants of it. It's so much more powerful.

[lozoft9]

NI may not be the best developer for DJ tools but they kick ass when it comes to production.

[trackattik]

THAT IDIOT!!!.....LOL

[biggareid]

i am so sold right about now! matter of fact i'm bout to throw away my MPD32.

who wants a free mpd32?

[saiyru14]

@biggareid Don't suppose you didn't throw it away yet!?! I hope i'm not too late!

[sonicfire1980]

what i never understood about this: what if i wanna make a complete song together with logic?? when i have made some patterns in maschine - how do i change/switch them for an arrangement and stuff??

[beatjugglez]

this guy did awesome, great showcase of what maschine can do, especially in a nine min vid

[Rahmoynes]

where can i get that maschine shirt he's wearing though?

[DaTrain]

i just bought my maschine a month ago its hella dope!!!!!! got the last one at the guitar center in canton mi

[joselchino]

my goddd... what a music store... i wish i could have just the half of that in my town

[lexamazing]

tash did you ever cop that maschine? your video kind of sold it for me homey. aight peace out pimp

Lex

The Rush

[tasherredenajetic]

@lexamazing Yepper. I actually bought it the day I shot this video. Since then I've been the #1 seller of Maschine in my region. Maybe even the country.

[lexamazing]

@tasherredenajetic cool that's what's up. keep making that heat and those sales.

[Joshie909]

do you have to have reason or any software like that

like fruity loops or pro tools

[tasherredenajetic]

@Joshie909 No, it comes with its on software that makes it an mpc. (just strictly for the computer). Maschine also doubles as a controller for almost any program. So templates are built in but you can build your own as well.

[JAEQOO]

Yo this would have been dope if he had one of those big ass pimp hats with the feather, a pimp cape and a cane!

[thecodebreakerz]

so its just a mpc?

[MrBojoo]

Can I use this thing unplugged from the computer?

[DreToonz]

Are the drums on there way better than the drums on the Akai Akai XR20? I figured it would be, but the Akai got nice drum sounds

[Paladinoocara]

@DreToonz Despite I don't have both, I wouldn't say that the drums are better, but it comes with a LOT of very nice drums + sampled instruments (6.5 gb now), so the Maschine would be a better choice over the XR20 for sure, plus, you get an amazing integration with your DAW

[PuCCiPuCCe]

Im buying a Maschine but its kinda cheesy, I just want to see what the hype is about, but Im a die hard MPC fan, The thing that sold me on Maschine was the fact that it reads Rex2 files...

[LynchTheGrynch]

Nice demo bro. Real quick, say if I wanted to use Mashine on the go. Is there anyway to map my Laptops keyboard (Like awsd) as the midi? I couldn't get Maschine to recognize.

[kimono0069]

Bla bla bla......we want to hear the maschine, not you! boring....bla bla bla.....

[leanmachene]

this thing is puke man, real sick

[Lichtathlet]

It looks soooo awesome. My Maschine will arrive on monday. I can't wait any longer :)

[JDaFlame]

I can hook this up to a computer and mix/sequence it with protools?

[MeMobeatz]

all the time a wanted a mpc 5000. now i turned to maschine. JUST OF THAT VIDEO ! great !

[UDSCDUBSTEP]

stop saying on the fly

[nenu24]

@UDSCDUBSTEP on the fly

[deejaytruong]

and this guy didnt even touch the FX yet lol

[insidejerk]

thats bonkers i shoulda copped this instead of the mpc

[ashtarbrian]

i have had my maschine for a month, have just been able to find time to learn it, this video is great, the thing rules. and this should be a product demo for the thing. godbless.

[detox85]

wat would u recommend for a good vst host... just wondering because i want to use something that easy..... check out my video if u get a chance, i like alot of synth and crazy complex drum patterns......

[detox85]

quick question how would i track it out one protools or logic, in other words where do i go to to set it up in my DAW software

[HeavenFort]

@detox85

usually you use the setup of your controller and you do close to nothing in your daw

but for the love of god quit using pro tools as a vst host.

[glitterlip]

had my maschine for 5 months now

best thing ever

totally shits on a mpc, mpd.

[sonnicheeba]

what laptop can i use or what laptop are you using for the maschine

[veins91]

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL.

[STUDI0XI]

This thing is a piece of shit being that it's OS is total crap since the os is the brains of maschine that makes it worthless. plus 2 mpc's are way way more reliable and have a better feel and over all vibe to them. the maschine os is descent when it comes to sequencing but quite honestly Ableton, Logic, Cubase in addition to a mpk or mpd is 100 million times better. maschine is a great concept with a long way to go.

[jeffbrent]

STUDI0XI : you don't know what you are talking about.

[32JSE]

Professional people like Deadmau5 use this as well so how is it a piece of shit?

[flowflash]

i had an roland mv 8800 who allready is STILL much better then any mpc... and I sold it to get an NI maschine... the maschine is da bomb.... I tell ya...

[smartwerker]

I would not prefer this over MPC for several reasons, but I use my MPC with midi channel control Komplete/Battery. Plus, I can take the MPC with me, sketch the beat and when I come back to link the midi channels to the sound in Komplete/battery. Just a hint, especially if you have a mpc already. It's all good, buddy.

[blackmo43]

look MASCHINE is good. very good infact.but,i would get a MPC too!!! to a MPC is a lot smoother to work with

[gb4double]

this jawn peels the wig off an MPC... Way fewer limitations in usability and at a way cheaper price tag...

[glitterlip]

All you guys be the judge, go and try mpc, mpd and maschine and actually use it. dont be afraid of some idiot guy at the music store, tell him to fuck off, because he prob cant even afford either, and thats how i was treated when talking about these products, i dont listen to anyones dog shit ok,. im over my rant now guys, look if any of you wanna talk to me about stuff just post here or pm me, id be really happy to try tell you and honest approach of this. thanks guys and all the best.!!!

[glitterlip]

Cause the thing is this guys, i spent so much of my time listening to idiots at music stores, idiots on youtube, idiots everywhere.

You have to go with what YOU think is the best guys, and im telling you know honestly from my heart, MASCHINE rips all, seriously why buys a fucking 5000 to use the synths? seriously. groove box is a groove box, its not a personal computer, you either keep producing 16 bit audio on the mpc 1000 2500, or you buy maschine and be able to sample and create up to 192khz

[smartwerker]

Ughhhhh, have you ever heard of spdif all digital

[glitterlip]

To spend so much time playing around with the crappy fruityloops sampler and so forth or to play with reason 4, its just not as good as maschines sofware or the DAW interlink, its just not. and unless you actually go and buy one or sit around and play with it, no youtube video is going to make you get horny over it really. infact all the youtube vids of maschine suck, they are fucked up. the best maschine vids are the NI ones, its what sold it to me, and im glad i purchased this and not a AKAI!

[glitterlip]

and even still using a mpd with your DAW, you are limited to your DAW and your plugins,

what cool sampling and so forth plugins do we have really that are that good or can be compared to an MPCs style of sampling.... YOU HAVE 1. thats prob the new MOTU BPM< that thing is pretty good and personally i would compare MPD32 with MOTU BPM to a MASCHINE< pretty much now this would be the only comparrison, but if you like sexy things and love your anal sex, then the maschine actually does rip the MOTU

[glitterlip]

mpd 24 yeh ok that thing was alright, mpd 32 yeh you got afew nicer buttons and some stupid extra cool looking colors, if you know how to use your DAW properly , which you cannot compare maschine to, maschine has made its own sofware and can be completely linked into any DAW anyways, you cant do that with a MPD, no matter how much you want to say you can, you cannot, unless akai create their own software, which they wont

[glitterlip]

now before some jew jumps in, im talking about the screen of your monitor ok with my reference to color.

ok now what else, you have a better way to sample, the colors, the beats are clearer, what you can see that you couldnt see on a mpc as hard as you tried you can see on the maschine, wether its the screen or the monitor, its better ok, ok well i think my mpc crap is over for now in my train of thought.

lets talk about the mpd, well the mpd is good yes but maschine kicks its ass,

[glitterlip]

these maschines are so much more than mpcs, because they are totally software integrated. the little shitty gimp screen on the mpc 2500 or 1000 or that tryhard new type they tried with the 5000, the maschine shits over it, the 2 double screens are way clearer, not to mention you have a full color screen with more options and sections than any mpc to this date can offer. im not a mpc lover or a NI lover i hate NI, but the maschine is def one of the best things ever to happen to us musicians

[glitterlip]

i dont know who is comming on here from akai talking down the maschine or watever, but i sat at a studio comparing the pads of the maschine to a 2500, 1000, 2000xl and 5000, and i have to say the pads are better on the maschine, all i can say is i hope that there is no problem over time with the maschines pads, and that they may be replaced if needed.

next lets talk about midi , well the maschine actually offers the same midi as the mpcs do, because as you might not know they are updating 24/7

[glitterlip]

it has effects the same as the mpc, more effects infact and actual ways to implement more as its software based.

honestly i mean around the time the mpc was made we were just starting to sex products like windows xp, we are now almost nearing win 7, and most of the controllers and keyboards software wont even work with this stuff, maybe if its big name they will update it, but they wont bother with stuff really.

ok now to my second point, the pads, the pads actually feel better on the maschine

[glitterlip]

ok everybody, im feeling abit horny 2day...

horny to talk to you all about the maschine...

everyone on youtube, day in, day out, talking shit on the maschines vs the mpc's I have afew things to say...

mpc, first of all almost 10 years old, more money than the maschine, totally fucked for using on a pc unless you have time to gimp around with alot of annoying settings and the lame usb that is hosts. not to mention you cannot use it as a controller like the maschine,

[blaqoutmusic]

its still software controller and im 100% hardware head, expect pro tools

[Kkidzz]

Tae Kwan Doo Doo AKA Flack Flicker AKA Sir Mis Da Point AKA ......sheesh

[tasherredenajetic]

I guess you're asking about things that have been actually sampled. Mostly drums. But I don't use it for the factory sounds. I have a ton of my own sounds I use with it. But, if I do use factory sounds, I tweek them.

[billythewill67]

What other sample based instruments are on the Maschine? I heard him say something about it. Looks great though, hopefully I can pick one up

[cburro]

Can u manipulate the samples(slow them down etc). with the maschine?

[tasherredenajetic]

Of course you can. On the fly and right on the Maschine itself.

[jogabonito67]

this guy and this video pretty much sell the maschine for me. was set to getting a mpc but maaaaaaaan this thing is better in sooooo many ways. peace

[djrite]

can you side-chain anything on the maschine?

[tasherredenajetic]

not that i know of. but depending on the DAW you're using you can make it happen. i know for a fact it can be done in ableton.

[SecondLifeSailing]

Whats that midi keyboard you have there? ;)

[tasherredenajetic]

its been a while, but I think its the Novation 61LE.

[NcriptioN]

I just copped a Maschine cause of this video. Was in limbo between this and the MPD32 but after seeing this, I was sold! Many thanks man.

Peace and Blessings.

[tasherredenajetic]

Glad you enjoyed it bro. Lemme hear something after a couple weeks with it.

[UchihaCat]

are there sampled instuments like on KONTAKT 3 , if so what are they and is it better then KONTAKT 3

[tasherredenajetic]

This is a whole different type of instrument. in my opinion is does waaaaaaaaaaaaay more and quicker. The soundset is trully different from Kontakt. But If I'm now mistaken you can import Kontakt sounds into Maschine.

[ibbieta]

6:45 "I never read the manual, figured it out".

Not.

[tasherredenajetic]

That's true for me as well. I've only cracked the manual one time and that's after a month of using it.

[33Tetragammon]

definitely the best videos of Maschine indeed!

[HecatombRecordings]

best vids of maschine yet

[tasherredenajetic]

Glad you enjoyed them.

Tasherre

[funkydafunker]

I really wish everyone else could review gear like the way this is done.I liked the " Did he just do that ? " too haha

[macdaddylorenzo]

always thrilling to see a super pro doing his thing

[laksemand]

Why does the camera guy talk like that?

[mryellow123]

It's how he sells shit..... by being the "cool guy at the shop that said this was 'da shet'"....

People are pretty silly, they assume because the guy selling them something sounds like MTV then they'll be as cool as MTV after buying it :-)

[eriegz]

Maybe he's so cool he can't help it :)
