hey thanks for the tutorial! i've been using maschine with windows/audacity to cut samples, not until recent that i switch to mac. appreciate the tut man! one question though, after record the sample, in edit mode, i am not able to play the pads without holding it down.. in other words i have to keep pressing the pad to trigger the whole section of the sample. Do you know how to fix that problem? thanks!!

@elphickwo you'll get a quicker response if you get at me on FB. But you just need to change to sample to ONESHOT instead of ADSR. Google those terms and you should find step by step instructions for it. If not msg me and I'll show you!

Can you still hear everything playing in Maschine with the soundflower settings on? or would i have to turn it off?

[KDilla1981]

@ThatFliWhiteGuy You can leave it on and still hear everything. After a bit Soundflower has a bit of latency so you just need to refresh it (I think I might have mentioned that in a video somewhere) by clicking the icon up top then 'Soundflower 16ch' or whatever you're using.

@KDilla1981 hey thank you so much! i would have never fig it out myself. much appreciate sir. another problem seems to appear, i use soundflowerbed to sample songs, but after recording, there's cracks(like blown out sound) in some soundwaves, and then all my other sounds will start cracking when i play them... I never had problem lik that with windows/audacity, maybe my input output level was too much? is there any other softwares besides soundflowerbed for mac? thanks again for helping out fam!

@xsinna1 audacity

[elphickwo]

@punxskanarchy hey audacity is a great program for windows, after u download the program, just drag whatever song form your music library into audacity. then you export it in wav file, and drag it into maschine. should work!

I can get this to work when I use the Maschine software by itself, but I am not able to sample when I use the Maschine inside of Logic. How could I do this?

[punxskanarchy]

yeah what program can you use for pc instead of soundflower for sampling with maschine? thanks bro

[xsinna1]

What about PCs? What do you use to sample internet audi?o
