Ambient with FM8, Massive & Monark on the Maschine +

[@hasznone8768]

This is exactly the kind of music I listen to every day, I really love the ambient textures here. Still looking for that sweet spot with sequencing within Maschine vs a full Daw, loved what you did!

[@crybo]

Thanks. Its never going to beat something like Ableton, but its amazing how fast you can make something due to the workflow.

[@hasznone8768]

@@crybo yeah that’s always the catch but most of the core stuff can be done just not the transitions and extra layering due to cpu consumption. I still find it a great way to get started!

[@SCMESD]

I love the cinematography too. Beat is tight.

[@crybo]

Thanks! Appreciate it! Used my iPhone 13.

[@perefaucon]

Impressive! ... Please, continue making ambient music with your Maschine+ my next gear. I expect learning a lot from you. Reagards from Barcelona

[@crybo]

Thankyou Pere! I intend to as I love using it.

[@Emily_M81]

Love when people use Maschine or MPCs for something that isn't hip hop or heavily drum-based music :D I'm working on learning Reaktor so I can get a little crazy on the Plus, at least, unless NI nerfs loading Reaktor like they recently did Kontakt on 1.4 -_- Anyway, thanks for sharing!

[@crybo]

Thanks. Would love them to sort out Reaktor properly to work on the +

[@tomsquires5741]

this is really inspiring!

[@crybo]

Thanks a lot!

[@richardbradshaw3357]

nice piece. I find the m+ a dream to use with just the occasional glitch. using your Peak template on the M+ so thanks for that too.

[@crybo]

Thanks! Yes I still have audio glitches but easily remedied by going into settings and turning the internal/external knob. Never used to get that glitch until they did an update to solve that very issue and that’s when I started to get it. Go figure! Glad you’re using the Peak template, such an amazing synth!

Really good! Love it.

Thankyou! Much appreciated!

[@alexandrelevy3916]

Beautiful...Love it! what about a tutorial on how you made this? At least the first 2 minutes?

[@LandOfBits]

bangerrrr 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@crybo]

Thankyou

[@AlexFainDj]

Nice to see that someone else. He doesn't just do Hip Hop with this machine. Be careful with distortion clicks when recording, are there any that can happen

[@71collective]

Nice jam 👍👌👌👌

[@crybo]

Thankyou!

@@crybo my pleasure mate I use maschine mrk 2...how do you find the standalone version mate ?

[@crybo]

@@71collective I feel it makes me more focused in finishing tracks, as I am just using it on its own. No distractions from the computer and using a multitude of VSTs. Just concentrating on the tools available to you on Maschine and re sampling. I was an original Mk 1 user from 1.5 and always loved the workflow. Went to Ableton and Push, which is still superior, but I love just sitting away from everything on the couch with my Maschine.

[@71collective]

@@crybo totally agree mate ...was a propellerheads reason user ...then ableton...maschine 2 ...before that had a lot of outboard gear and an Atari st ...last couple of years I’ve been going back to outboard gear without a computer...I looked at the standalone maschine + but opted for the Mc 707 to partner the TR8S..the 2 of them work well together though😁👌

[@alexmax9832]

@@crybo It's TRUE.

[@tommb]

Love it ... it would be interesting to see what exactly did you do ...

[@GrootsieTheDog]

🔥🔥🔥 nice! Got an M+ arriving today. Question I would be super grateful if you could clarify - I'm still pretty new to the NI platform - i see that there are some expansions that are not for standalone mode but yet they contain massive patches. Why would I not be able to use those massive patches in standalone? Thanks for any insight - I'm still trying to understand the architecture of the NI paradigm 🤯

[@crybo]

Thanks!You can copy any massive patches you want onto your SD card.

[@GrootsieTheDog]

So what it basically means when they say "Please note, PRISMATIC BLISS is not compatible with MASCHINE+ in standalone mode." it mreans I cant just load the expansion into the Mashine+. Instead I can open up on my laptop and then grab the massive patches I like and drop those in - do I have that right? Thanks! @@crybo

[@crybo]

@@GrootsieTheDog yes

[@gregfromthevaley]

Native instruments should get in contact with you to create new sound pack for Ambient. Hot staff!!!

[@carstenherbst2934]

Awesome ! can u share the Projectfile ?

[@TP_LANDSCAPE_PHOTOGRAPHY]

WHAT PACKS ARE YOU USING AND HOW MUCH ARE AMBIENT SAMPLES FOR THIS MACHINE AND IS IT EASY TO USE ? Thanks Troy nice one

[@crybo]

It was just a drum loop, all the other sounds are from the synths that I tweaked on Maschine +. I did another video showing how I did the pad sound with FM8 and the FX in Maschine. The actual Maschine I feel is very easy to use once you get your head around patterns and scenes. The workflow is very quick and intuitive. A lot of it ends up muscle memory.

[@TP_LANDSCAPE_PHOTOGRAPHY]

@@crybo THANK YOU TROY

[@TP_LANDSCAPE_PHOTOGRAPHY]

@@crybo Hi this is Troy many thanks - But where do you get the Machine Music Editing Software I have downloaded Traktor DJ is that the main dj editing suite please ? Thanks troy

[@crybo]

@@TP_LANDSCAPE_PHOTOGRAPHY the software only comes with the hardware. I don’t actually use it with my computer, I only use it standalone.

Great info! Thanks!@@crybo
