Re: How to make custom categories in Browser's Drum Hits!!

This is so cool for anyone who, like me, has been fiddling around with various Maschine templates to use NI sounds in live. You now have NI kits on Push's step sequencer, and all the NI sounds with Push's extra pads and scale choices. Plus it opens up so many more possibilities for automating effect...

Re: How to make custom categories in Browser's Drum Hits!!

sorry and the other minor issue was that some racks (eg Abbey road) seem to be very quiet and at the moment I am going to each sound individually and turning them up. But there is probably a way to do this globally for each rack that a relative novice like me is not aware of...

Re: How to make custom categories in Browser's Drum Hits!!

That's great thank you. I have installed on one computer so far and am loving it - it has solved a lot of headaches for me. Just one thing: on my laptop there seems to be a small issue whereby for NI racks Live has to automatically search for the Maschine samples and I have to point it to the new Sa...

Re: How to make custom categories in Browser's Drum Hits!!

Hi queglay This looks really interesting and I am about to buy your bridge. However can I check a couple of things first - sorry if the questions are basic: 1. I have Live on 2 macbooks and an Imac - do I need to buy your software 3 times? Fair enough if so I guess, - just checking. 2. Is it simple ...

Re: Trouble automating Maschine in Ableton, anyone help?

OK apologies for the dumb question, but is it simply that you can only record automation from the Maschine vst in arrangement view? Or worse, is it that you can only draw it in in arrangement view?

Re: Trouble automating Maschine in Ableton, anyone help?

Not sure if I was clear in my last post. I am using Maschine as a Vst in Live. I am recording midi from Maschine into Live. But I want to record parameter automations from Maschine into Live at the same time. I have set up the macro controls and when I play the clip, if I turn the knobs on Maschine ...

Re: Trouble automating Maschine in Ableton, anyone help?

Hey guys I 'm having the same problem two years later. I have automated the group macros so that the maschine knobs are moving the macro controls on the maschine device in Live. But Live won't record the automation. So I can do it in real time but not play it back. Does anyone have any suggestions? ...

Hasn't anyone controlled the Maschine Vst inside Live with a midi keyboard? :(

Midi keyboard controlling Maschine VST

Hi all I like to select sounds/instruments using Maschine but then play them with a keyboard instead of the Maschine pads as it obviously gives me a lot more keys to play. In Maschine standalone, this is fairly simple, you just go midi out from the keyboard and midi in to Maschine, then click on the...

Re: Reaktor Plug in Problems

Hey, sorry to trouble you with this one again revoltcrew - I am still having this weird problem with Reaktor. I'll try and explain it a little better. 1. I can change 'midi in' to omni but not 'midi out' - it only gives me 1-16. Not sure if this is relevant. 2. I can use Reaktor directly as a plug i...

Re: Reaktor Plug in Problems

hey by the way, I've noticed when using Reaktor as a plug in directly (ie not via maschine) in Live, the 'instruments' work fine (using Push to play them) but the ensembles lay down midi, no sound though, and no sound playback. Any ideas??

Re: Reaktor Plug in Problems

Hey thanks again
Pretty sure I couldn't scroll down, but this seems to be a problem only when using a few presets and only when I'm using Maschine in Live - Reaktor as a plug in without Maschine seems fine.
Really appreciate you taking the time to help - nice one, thanks
