I've used all these beat making software programs and I still think Maschine is the easiest, fastest and the most fun software and on top of that Native Instruments has the BEST sounds.
Can you guys send me some video links for learning how to make beats with the mashine software I bought it last month been trying to figure how to work it....I need some help lol
I agree but Akai hardware is superior. Maschine Plus is priced similar to Live 2 but spec’d more similarly to MPC One. Should not have been priced more than$999 imo
@@kevlew.mrlew_mrlewmedia yep 100. The live 2 is my go too. And I don't need a billion sounds. The supplied library has got it all covered and the plugins allow me to customise the sounds easily as well as craft my own. Haven't needed to craft my own. I found that having komplete ultimate just had me spending ages going through different sound packs and not really finding anything that inspired me..I think for the EDM folk massive is great but for me just a whole lot of noise.
Question... Can You Take The Machine To The Beach, In Its Original Form Without It Being Doctored up With External Batteries And Whatnot And Create A Masterpiece? Of Course Not... Only The MPC Live 2 Is Capable of That... That Being Said Tupac Nor Drake, Are Considered Fast Rappers, Its About How You USE YOUR CONTENT, That's Why Their Performances Are APEXED! Its Not Always About The Fastest, Especially When The Word ART Is INVOLVED. 😁.
Quickest way to get to main mixer. 1. Click on mixer tab with the mouse. 2. Click on a group with the mouse. 3. On the MK3 or Maschine+ push the large knob up or down. The main mixer will show.
I know one thing, the Abbey Roads kit is the best sounding live drums I’ve heard on any piece of software, has that round robin effect, dope presentation as always bro
Bolo, I believe ‘Default’ Full Level is at 100 velocity. If you go to ‘Pad Mode’ and press the right arrow until you get to the last page you can change the velocity to 127. That will give you harder hits in ‘Full’ mode
This is solid for a 10 min beat💯. You can also use the "shift + quantize" buttons to quickly quantize 808s and whatnot. If you can keep making videos like this and any discoveries you find using the software that'll be incredible 🙏🏾
If you wanna get quicker check out DDS, he's a beast at using the hardware for tracking out an entire beat. Switch to group mode and it will pull up the mixer for all groups.
Hey there bolo I'm glad that you got that MK3. When you learn how to work that along with that acai, you going to another level baby! I know you going to make some good beats! Can't wait to hear your projects.
I've been using Machine Studio and NI for several years after reluctanly parting with my MPC2000. I am always amazed at how versatile this system is...especially when you use it either within or outside of your DAW ( logic pro X in my case)...I like your work and enjoy your channel. Thanks for sharing as I learn something new with every episode I watch...keep bangin!!!
there's a volume button on the hardware if u hold the group and volume button at the same time u can use the rotary knob to turn it down.. also if u hold an individual pad and volume button at the same time u can turn down that one sound in the group
HeyBOLO this is Dutch! You wanted to know how to control the mixing level! Instead of mixing every individual sound level, turn the group setting on. When you turn the group setting on you can control the volumes of every instrument in that particular group. Remember to look for the tab that says group and that will allow you to control the mix on all the instruments in that group!
I Just found these videos from Native - absolutely brilliant there is a part 2 as well - " How to Use Everything in MASCHINE MK3, Beat Making Masterclass (Part 1) | Native Instruments"
7:30 NO DONT DO THAT!!! Put in the same group with the closed hat so you can easily cut them off when one is playing. Also learn how to use patterns, it will make your workflow soooooo much easier 😎🥃 Hot track and you’ll find that Maschine is a low key cheat code 😉
Soundin good for just a week man! I always set up drums in single group and add to sounds in each pad. Good when u wanna get the feel and finger drum the drums. Been using maschine mk3 for three years now(changed up to the plus 6months ago) and I love the workflow with maschine.
Bolo do you think you might be kinda stuck in your ways? I notice that regardless of what you use you kinda similar beats alot, this sounds very similar to the beat you made on beat maker 3 to Me, still dope you did it in 10 minutes.
BOLO, I use each instrument volume and keep all my faders @ zero db, mixes sound way cleaner that way. Some NI instruments like the Poly Synth doesn’t have a volume knob, so what I do is use a plug in with a variable output. A simple NI compressor should do the trick.
Tips 1.) Change Mixer layout and back, click down and up with your encoder knob. (You see little white leds near the encoder knob, which direction you can go to ;-) Tip 2.) Watch your mainvolume to avoid it to go in the red, set Mainvolume to -3.5 dB. I hope this is helpful to you! and your beat is realy good for first use!
I've never used Maschine but you made it look easy! Well done, sounds great for a 10 minute first try! I agree with you about the workflow. It looked pretty intuitive and easy to use. I still say Akai Force & Maschine are the two best non DAW all in one creation stations. I wonder if NI or Akai have anything up their sleeve for the NAMM show coming up in a few weeks.
Started with Maschine MK2, nine years ago (haven’t released one thing as of yet, plan to soon, another story), still trying to learn Live and Push2, can’t seem to get MPC to cooperate (started with Beats then Studio). When I can’t deal with the frustration of the other two I always return to just pressing that little button on the back my MK3, see those colors light across the pads and I can turn out beats in minutes, like you did here. Nice beat btw and video as usual. Really enjoy your channel. Starting with the ease and simplicity of Maschine has got me used to that workflow, the sounds and quality are top notch and it keeps improving as a complete DAW itself.
Bolo great job with this beat, for the first one with MK3 you cooked it up real nice. I truly believe you know the maschine software good already. Keep up the good videos, you give me good ideas.
Click on view at the top of the screen ( I'm using Mac) and select mixer. Or while on mixer tab of the MK3 console press up on the dial and it'll show the full mixer. Press down to return. Glad I could help Bolo!
Yo Bolo ... welcometo the NI family. As a long time Maschine user, there is so much to explore with NKI integrations, etc. Great 1st start! Just know that you can use all 16 pads in the bank for all of your collections. No BS ...try the various NI sponsored Maschine vids. They will get you up and running quickly. Happy exploring!
Nice beat!!! This proves that it's not about the gear. It's about talent. A talented beat maker can make a nice sounding beat on ANYTHING!!! Just stick with the gear you are most comfortable working with and doesn't get in the way of the creative process.
Dope.beat been rocking the maschine since 2015 all need is that komplete kontrol Mk2 keyboard and it’s over I got the Mpc live 2 but I just can’t put my maschine down
To get to the main mixer, click on the highlighted section in that mixer, it take you to the main one..if it goes back to the clips just go to that mixer and click it again...let me know if you get that bass and kick to bang out loud enough like the Mpc..Hood Luck with it man....Nice Beat tho..💥
Tip number 1... Get an mpc live 2 or X. Yeah I know you got them already. I had the machine MK2 and just made the switch to the MPC live 2. I guess I'm old because the MPC just makes sense to me. It's incredibly powerful and I keep finding new features that are so easy to use in production. I never figured out the maschine it just wasn't for me. I'm betting you will be back to the MPC. The live 2 especially feels like an instrument. Looking forwards to more videos when you back on the MPC ☺️
Wassup Bolo. I appreciate your videos. I use FL Studio and machine mk3 independently, sometimes I even use machine software as a vst inside if FL studio. I been working and doing other things and haven’t made many beats lately but you’re motivating me to dust off the mk3 and get back to it. I know u are a MPC guy but please keep this maschine mk3 series going for a while I’d help motivate me and maybe I’ll learn some new tricks along the way. Also if anyone know how to make the bass/808 really hit and thump like in other daws on the mk3 let me know. I honestly think it’s a mixing thing but maybe its something in the mk3 vst/software itself also… oh yeah I also have the machine keyboard but don’t know how sync it with the mk3 and use them together, plus I suck at playing the keys.
It might just be that the default velocity in "full" for Maschine is 100 instead of 127. You can go into the settings and change it to 127 to get that full hard hit sound.
Go in to the mixer and use the main big knob up or down to switch between mixing inside a group or at all the groups. Blessed breakfast and Im really psyched to see what stuff u will make with ur MK3. I would higly recoomend you cheking Blezz beats youtube tutorial vids on maschine!
Yo Bolo The whole Mixer doesn’t show up what you see is what you get. I typically just turn down each group when mixing. The mixer is trash it’s definitely one of the things they need to fix. Along with adding a Playlist View like in FL.
um, ok, now I think I'll look for a video where someone is making a beat ON THE MACHINE!!! p.s. for what your doing and how, machine micro would have been a lot cheaper.
MPC LIVE UPDATE 2.11 is Coming Out On The 23rd of This Month… Work Flow Game Changer and Then Some… So I Expect You To Be Back To The Main Course Soon Okay 😁😎
My BAD.... I Gat So Excited With The Announcement, I Thought We Was Already In JUNE... It Already Feels Like Memorial Day Has Recently Passed Because Of The HIGH GASOLINE PRICES... Not Lol.
Native Instruments HITS HARD. I use MK2, MPC X, Korg Kronos 2, Yamaha Montage, New Roland Fantom, Roli Rise 49 off the chain, OMNISPHER 2, OUTPUT, Prophet 6, #1. The Lord Jesus Christ. Look this up Bolo I promise it will help just by reading it. If it doesn’t I will pay you$100 dollars. I promise. However, when you read it you must be truthful if it helps you. Take care Producer.

@bolo to get the entire mixer you need to click over the word master on the master track at the far right of your screen when in mixer mode
Thanks, I figured it out right after I stopped filming lol

Brooo holy shit I came here bc I heard that troll beat on insta and I just this prod tag NIGGA IK YOU😂😂😂😂😂 Love from Texas my boy☝🏾
Let’s hear it 🔥
YO...You killed that jawhn that beat is FIRE AWESOME JOB (I LIKE)
This was so cool. You like that Maschine work flow. Its EASY! Dope beat!
Very nice! It's definitely a Club Banger!
This just helped me learn how to arrange in maschine!! Thank you!!
That 808 though!!!!! Slapping 👋 ⚡️⚡️I love way it’s sounds coming out of the maschine hard!!!! 🔥🔥🔥

Happy to share some tips bro... Workflow is vital... Use Maschine MK3 to Navigate and mix etc.
Maschine allows me to get out my idea’s real quick. Instant ideas
That 💣💣💣
this is something i might make myself I'm a simple beat maker .
you going like maschine
You dig great ...I have a micro mk3 still trying to wrap my head around ....You did what you usually do just different knobs.
Maschine gang 🫡
That's a bad boy tune! Heavy weights for gym tune!
7:46 you cans change the sensitivity in the software in settings. Also you change how your colors are 👍🏾
🔥🔥🔥 that beat hitting bro
Sounds so awesome! Dope beats!! 😊🔥🔥🔥
Peace Bolo, Double click on the group in mixer will open group full mixer. Same for Master.
Thanks!
To get to the main mixer, click on the highlighted section in that mixer, it take you to the main one..if it goes back to the clips just go to that mixer and click it again...let me know if you get that bass and kick to bang out loud enough like the Mpc..Hood Luck with it man....Nice Beat tho..💥
hello from France ; for the 808 , you can put for the polyphony in legato mode , it gives the glide function ; thanks for all your work .
That’s Hard 🔥🔥🔥
I love the MK3 and the maschine workflow I bought the mpc studio a few months back but still having trouble with the AKAI MPC workflow and software
Yeah That beat came out riding frfr!
Tip number 1... Get an mpc live 2 or X. Yeah I know you got them already. I had the machine MK2 and just made the switch to the MPC live 2. I guess I'm old because the MPC just makes sense to me. It's incredibly powerful and I keep finding new features that are so easy to use in production. I never figured out the maschine it just wasn't for me. I'm betting you will be back to the MPC. The live 2 especially feels like an instrument. Looking forwards to more videos when you back on the MPC ☺️
Im embarrassed i had mine for a year never knew how to use song mold thanks
That"s Hard!!!!
Fire Love It
killin me with all these groups for 1 sound. dope tho
I like this page
The polyphony on the MK3 works better if you put it in legato mode..
I’ll definitely try it
I’ve never used the maschine software. Might have to give it a spin!
Remind me of Cedric The Entertainer
please tell me you're not giving up on MPC .. Lmaoo .. Bolo you're dope beat fire and im convinced about maschine now .. im gonna try it.. thanks Man
I see some people hook up there speakers to the machine line out but mine is hooked to a audio interface are u using one
could you please make a series on how to use machine , i do not understand the other tutorials ,
Wassup Bolo. I appreciate your videos. I use FL Studio and machine mk3 independently, sometimes I even use machine software as a vst inside if FL studio.

Bolo!!👍👍
Not using patterns in “idea mode”? It’s similar to Ableton’s
Inspired to get on my Mikro MK I’m not as good on it as I am on my MPC studio 2
Maschine is dope
In velocity tab. Turn up volume tab
make kick hardert
5:54 I got that X factor kit, it's 🔥
Thanks!!

Nice one....Fir mixer controls...hit mixer on mk3 and use knows accordingly
Hey Bolo
Are you still using Studio One or did you go back to Logic?
I use both
@@BoloDaProducer I use both too. Love the midi editing in Studio One! Man that drag n drop is just insanely good.
@ 7:41. F.Y.I. You can change the pads sensitivity!
Maschine Gang! 💪🏾 What are the differences vs MPC. Where can I get your kit?
Check out my last video
It was basic but dope🔥
It’s my first beat…. I’m getting there lol
🙏🏾🌊🏆
Lol the Maschine is very user friendly for delayed people like myself
8:33 then put it into keyboard mode
Go to master on your plugins section then the whole mixer will show up.
Thanks! I actually figured it out when I was editing the beat lol
Yo Bolo The whole Mixer doesn’t show up what you see is what you get. I typically just turn down each group when mixing. The mixer is trash it’s definitely one of the things they need to fix. Along with adding a Playlist View like in FL.
I actually found out how to do it. You have to click on master track while in mixer mode and they will all pop up 🔥
um, ok, now I think I'll look for a video where someone is making a beat ON THE MACHINE!!! p.s. for what your doing and how, machine micro would have been a lot cheaper.
I stopped using the actual maschine daw, when I found out I could jus run it through studio one. It's a process tho.
