NI Maschine - Funky House Improvvisation

Hey there folks!!
First of all sorry for the bad quality audio, you can download the full quality one from here:
http://soundcloud.com/masiak/ni-maschine-improvvisation

Just a quick groove I wanted to make for the youtube community to show off what Native Instruments MASCHINE can do.
This is all done LIVE, and there was not any pattern made or anything, just improvvisation!!
Also, this is not a track, and this will never be a finished one.

I really hope you enjoy!
peace,
k.

I'm really thinking about getting one. Does it sense how hard you are pressing the buttons and apply volume that way?

[djmasiak]

@rickgut2004 i'm not sure to understand your question but yes, the pads are velocity sensitive.

Interesting stuff.

Does this work well without having to look at the pc or is it a myth in reality?

[djmasiak]

@glennmusictech: this video was done without looking at the laptop!

of course you've got to know your stuff quite well, but once you do, you can make almost anything straight from here.

what lacks is when in Sampling Mode, wich basically doesn't allow to focus on the sample and so on, so you get way fucked up on long samples without the screen

@rickgut2004 Yeah it does, the pads are velocity sensitive by default but its very easy to turn that setting off

@MilwaukeeDreadie Its Tomato..

@tony29780

tomatoe / tomotoe, mother fucker

[tony29780]

@MilwaukeeDreadie no hes right, velocity sensitive means it records how hard you press, touch sensitive means it it just senses touch.

@rickgut2004

the term youre looking for is "touch sensitive"....lol

@pnakml Sweet. Thank you. 

[pnakml]

@scientrophic 1) yes you can, the hardware has a knob for the swing and with update 1.6 you can apply different type of swing to each group 2) mainly with Ableton, but it works with any.

[scientrophic]

This is dope. Two questions which you may not be able to answer. 1) Does the Maschine have the ability to apply swing rhythm to loops without going to the DAW? and 2) Which DAW did you use it with? I really like Ableton (especially now that I've spent all this time learning to use it!), and was wondering if people have used it effectively with Ableton.

@NJhousehead or act cool and slice the sample to fit your needs ;)
