It really depends on the user. Your skill and your desire to wield it is what makes the difference. You can make magic on any device as long as you got that itch to create something dope. I would use either a Maschine device or an MPC or a Casio keyboard if I had to. Lol. If you can make noise you can make music… it’s just that simple. I used garage band on my phone to make beats when there was nothing to use. lol. It’s all about the drive and how you are able to manipulate your skill to bend to your will.
It's so true!!! Some of these producers can make absolute heat on their phone using bandlab! It's all about creativity and what inspires you!!! for a long time I was only using Logic Pro X, but I found that I'm more inspired using hardware!! it really is all about your personal preference!!!
@@BlackBeltTitus yup growing up I used to make beats hitting a large box on the ground (padmount transformer) wouldn’t do it now. lol. But yea that’s how it starts. You and your buddies are hanging out. One wants to spit a verse so I jump on the beat by hitting this huge transformer ( which is hollow and has lots of bass) point is anyone can make a beat on anything. Hardware… software…noware lol. It’s all good. Just make music if it is in you.
Keep up the good work. Hope your channel takes off. I’m at 76 subs. lol. Gotta start somewhere right? 😎👍🏽

I love it , workflow is insane imo the best hands on. Killer beat !
Thanks so much!!! Appreciate it!! You’re right the workflow goes crazy!!
There is so much pleasure and music in working with Maschine. I love it.
Totally!!!
The note repeat saves me so much time honestly
I totally agree
Same here!!! especially for hi Hats
so dope
Love your vibe! Sick vid
Appreciate it!!!
You've killed it man! Yes!
Appreciate it!!!! So happy you liked it!!
It definitely still stands up to the competition.. the only problem is the lack of software updates..
I completely agree
That beat goes hard 🔥🔥 you make em so quick!!
Lots of Practice!!!
Got mine a couple weeks ago and im learning slowly as a noob lol
Good luck!! It can be a little confusing, but once you get it you never wanna make beats without it!!!
Watch - How to Use Everything in MASCHINE MK3, Beat Making Masterclass (Part 1), (2 & 3) - 3 separate videos) by Boris Mezga its in the Native Instruments channel - absolutely the best tutorials and walkthrough of MK3 power - so much easier than reading the manual or watching snippets here and there
😎
It is worth buying 😊
I totally agree!!!
Thank you for the video. Does the MK3 have a key detection feature? I'm not a musician, so if I sample something, I won't know what key it's in. The new generation MPC's have that key detection feature, which I assume makes it easier when knowing how to match your bass to the sample.
I don’t believe so but there are cheap/ free 3rd party plugins you can get to do this for you inside the maschine MK3
@@BlackBeltTitus Thank you.
Dont listen thid Guy buy an MPC. Trust me MPC IS superior
@@slice307 Thank you for your feedback!
It doesn’t have key detection but, u can change the key of the sample to whatever key u want it to be. In the zone section of the sampler (on the 2nd or 3rd page I believe) u can set the key and then tune the sample back to its original tempo… or find a new tempo🤷🏽♂️
Maschine Software need a serious update to follow up wha'ts currently on the market. For me it's not normal that this software is not 3.0
Yeah they are definitely slow with the updates! But with the komplete integration it has sped up my workflow substantially!!
should i get this now or wait for an mk4. do you think the advancements in the mk4 will be worth waiting for?
Honestly it’s tough to say. Cuz I’m not even sure the MK4 will drop soon. I love the MK3 but if you want to wait, my guess is it’ll drop in 2025
@@BlackBeltTitus yeah ig just because its been around for a while doesn't mean it NEEDS to be replaced. You should make a video on some things that you wish were different about it and would like to see improved on the next version if it happens.
@@sixx_xlr That's an awesome idea honestly!!! thanks for the suggestion definitely will!!!
Can I put my own vocal and sample sounds thru machine and the mk3?
Vocals I’ll be honest is the best but you definitely can thru direct input. Samples yes!!! You can just drag and drop
Update cycle is one of the worst. The last major update to the software (2.5) was 8 years ago!
Yeah they definitely need an update soon!!!
It is still very good
I totally agree
Got my Mk3 right before Maschine+ released tbh if MPC software wasn't so clunky I would've went with an MPC instead but I've grown to love Maschine
Me too. People really hate the maschine software but once you get a hold on it it’s not too bad honestly! Sped up my workflow for sure. I can make loops so quickly now!!
MPC IS designed to be standalone. MPC in standalone mode bruhhh its fyaa
Synth guitars are insane!!!
Nexus and Along Lab make it easy lol!!!
I'll take it over an akai product any day!!
Me too!!! I love my maschine MK3!!
Unlike Akai, Native Instruments sucks at keeping its groovebox platform up to date.
Yeah honestly it’s definitely something they need to improve on
Then you go to an Akai page and people are complaining about the same thing it never stops😁
@@pwho405 People always complain but unlike NI, these complains wouldn't be fair.
@@pwho405except mpcs keeps getting massive updates pretty frequently what about maschines? Lol
@@wm1573 Besides stems what else is worth talking about and we all know what happened with that mess.
People hate the way the MPC software works so I don’t see much of anything else.
I’m not trying to go lick for lick I’m just saying we will always want more no matter what you use.
It still has beats in it. Sure. Maschine devices aren’t for me but they still can make music. Why not?
They do need to get their users what they want. NI seems to have gone asleep on the Maschine front.
I’ll stick to my MPCs and DAWs.
Fair enough!!
Probably shouldn't compare it to MPC Keys since that's a whole Keyboard.
Fair enough! But they do kinda live in the same category of hardware. But I totally see where you’re coming from!!!
It’s not much of a (standalone )
Yeah
