I agree man, it's just exciting to see it grow. They've proven that they actually listen to us, which is awesome.

besides what i mentioned earlier, i really believe that there is a certain amount of attitude attached... (i personally like that, if someone can allow himself to have balls) that the plugin support is OK< but as NI (i mean i would!!!) you want to purposely keep some things the way so it pushes you...

I think by template he meant modes but it's all good. It works for some and others don't like it, no big :) Just like everyone doesn't use all the key commands in a daw, it just depends on how you like to work. Another thing when using Maschine as a plugin, getting multiple midi channels out of the ...

what is the big deal to start stop via control mode? i don't get that gripe, if you are a maschine user then i think the switch between the maschine and control mode becomes so easy and quick a second nature i don't even think about at all anymore... it is an automatic reflex that takes less then a...

How reliable is it on a Mac compared to say Live 8.1.3? never had a crash myself, not once. and to the others, how can you possibly expect to dominate a host when used as a plugin :roll: , oh my gawd, how stoopid is already that thought. :roll: if you think that way then i don't want to imagine you...

I know quite a few folks around here use Maschine and Live together and many may not like how Maschine works as a plugin. I know for myself, I hate that you can't control the start/stop of Maschine when it's a plugin, this small feature is a huge part of how I work on building up drums/grooves and p...

just a question for maschine users (i have maschine since a few month but rarely use it - obviously the "magic" didn´t catch me up to now). when i have maschine opened in live as a plugin, why can´t i start/stop live from the maschine? ok, i could set in on midi-remote... but this is not ...

am I dreaming? Is it not possible to have the track "arm" when you drag a plugin over?

I thought it was, maybe I'm trippin lol.

cool I'm going to check it out then. I think I know how to do it, I started doing it the other day but wondered if there was an easier way.

The thing I was missing was the "external instrument" device, that will make things much easier.

I know I used to be able to drag a vst to a track, and it would automatically arm it, but it's not working anymore.

Is there somewhere to turn this on/off that I may have hit by accident? lol.

OH man! I was looking for this feature, too bad I use live 7 :( I spent a few hours this past weekend trying to figure out the best way to setup my multitimbral plugins, regular midi tracks were wack because I couldn't do audio with them. I wanted audio/midi on same track. I wanted to save a templat...

is that a live 8 feature or can it be done in live 7?

yeah, been trying to get those midi remote scripts to work, I'm not having much luck yet.

thanks for the tip. Just wrapping my head around lives midi mapping, didn't realize it was project specific. I guess I could setup a template.

I'm trying to get my controller to map for volume. Problem is if I set it up on an audio track, it only works with audio tracks. If I set it up for midi tracks, it only works with midi tracks. Is there something I can do to get it to work with ANY type of track that's in that slot? Say I want to jus...
