Problem I have is making my drums swing like this in the video...whats your method...do you swing each element diff from each other, what swing settings do you use....my programming would be dope if i could get my drums to groove and swing like yourz.....maybe you can do a vid on that....thanks hommie

[Altruwest]

@AChurcHillBoyVision Hey Fam, it literally has more to do with my body movement (Head Nod, and arms) than the sequencer settings. In this video Im not using any quantization and really rely on my body movements to dictate the groove here. I honestly think thats the best way to approach it because ultimately you want the track to move in a very specific way that is unique to you.

whats good big bro its Trakz and after seeing this man, you have inspired me not only once but three times to stop bitching and get maschine. so I have 2x on the way, I'll call if theirs anything that catches me off balance. Peace n good luck big bro!

initial 8 or 16 bar loop. Any way you could show us your workflow for the programming of scenes .... in the way you define changing you "programming sensibility". You're on to something here and I know it's sort of an Ableton approach but coming from the linear school, I'd love a tangible example of what you are speaking about. If possible, you could finish the video with an export of the individual tracks (sounds) into Pro Tools so that it takes the scenes and converts to the standard linear.

could u do a video on scenes plzz?!?

[LogicalBeats2010]

Man your really inspiring, I'm a logic pro 9 user and have been using a mpc 5000 for a while now but looking for something new I think Maschine is what could help me. And man you have some great idea's and an amazing way of talking, I understood what you mean with the linear production and I feel I need to break from that too! Keep it up man. Thank you! LB

What is a DAW? i just got the maschine mikro and am trying to learn

[ajsdadd1966]

Hello f major. I want to thank you for your videos on the maschine. I just purchased the maschine. Im used to making tracks on my motif. Never been on a beat type machine like the maschine. Just learning how to sample with it.. the problem im having is synching the tempo of the sample with the tempo of the maschine. HEEEELLLP please

[polishbroadcast]

I love that this track is both spacey and intense. Nice work.
