Essential Maschine Pitch Shift+Timestretch Masterclass 2021!

[@loubob73]

Can't thank you enough for these videos. I'm a complete novice, and would be completely lost without them.

[@jefgibbons]

Most welcome, thanks for the comment Loubob!

[@iamdadsquatch]

"Sometimes you get cool accidents so whatever" - My whole process in a nutshell. Love the tutorial!

[@unc1589]

Sheez I didn’t even know that maschine did this. I’d switch to ableton for my warping needs. With live its like “of course you want the tempo of your sample to match...” with maschine it’s like “ if you, for some strange reason, want your tempo to match, we’ve provided you with an easy 41 step plan...” Thanks bro for helping us out.

[@jefgibbons]

No prob! It IS still a workaround though...

[@bookx249]

That’s so accurate. I love Maschine so I can’t leave but, it’s tempting

[@Realliedoe]

Blezz Beats is HILARIOUS!!!

[@outdevo]

This is great and also exactly why Serato Sample is a lifesaver for those of us that get lost trying to do this…

[@bustogw]

If only I could export chops from serato sample

[@DazedPhasesofLazerbeams]

Thank you good sir. You are a scholar and a gentleman.

Thanks so much Jeff!!

i totally agree with that comment! some people are just born to teach. thank You.

[@rteeviousmusic]

....and here I was thinking I was getting better at listening and comprehension Lol! he does explain details a lot better than some

[@samgoldsberry3029]

For these hurdles is why I bought Serato Sampler plugin with Maschine. Serato makes sample chopping and time stretch a breeze. Plus it has KEY DETECTION. Great video Jeff.

[@jefgibbons]

Thanks Sam, I do need to get to Serato!

[@krispybowgod9656]

It’s honestly kind of sad that a software designed to be a sampler like maschine needs something like serato sample to actually be effective. I started on maschine but moved to Ableton now and it’s 10x easier working with samples now

[@samgoldsberry3029]

@@jefgibbons If you get it, please do one of your awesome videos on it. This plugin really works great with Maschine and pad triggering. Totally worth it to be hassle free.

[@samgoldsberry3029]

@@krispybowgod9656 I agree. Easy sample manipulation and key detection should be standard on any sampler software in 2021.

Serato Sample spoiled me. :D

[@TheFallingGoat]

Mr Gibbons. First of all I must congratulate you sir, you are a god among mere mortals. Next, you should know, your explanations are eloquent, verbose, and amazingly easy to follow. Lastly, I have to thank you for seeing me through the most complex and maddening aspects of Maschine 2. Sincerely, from the depths, thank you kind sir! Thank you!

[@slik_p]

And here I was, 2 or 3 days ago, looking for more sampling concepts, particularly timestretching. When to use, when not to use, how to use, etc. A more hands on approach to sampling, listening sounds, different kinds os samples. Something more organic and practical. I almost started doing it in Ableton because it feels easier. The first thing that came to mind when I was searching was spamming you to convince you to make a video about this. Well, obviously you're a mind reader. Thanks for doing it before I asked!

[@jefgibbons]

Ha! Must have been your Jedi mind tricks!

[@paulcousins6535]

You really know how to teach music tutorials well......and the design of your studio is right up my street, very neat and ocd!

I think NI have a way to go with improving time stretching on Maschine. Thanks for sharing these techniques, Jef - really great tips for now, and well explained as always! I think the workflow on Maschine is fantastic, but for anything with time-stretching, Ableton Live is some way ahead. But I am sure NI will improve this with time. Cheers!

This the very best guide to time stretching on Maschine that I've ever seen since starting on Maschine 5 years ago. Awesome Job!

[@JTFuller]

JEFFFFFFFFFFFFFF!!!!!!!! THIS WAS EXACTLY WHAT I NEEDED MAN.... I actually stopped using my Machine Studio because of this reason, I got so frustrated with gate and loop and the difference between audio and sampler mode.. DUDE... You really got me back on Machine today.. I am a Logic user.. But I LOVE, the drums in this thing.. You have helped me so much man, thank you isn't enough my friend.. Im making a beat right now.. lol

[@merlinbeats7699]

Hey Jeff, this is Felix from Germany. I just wanna give you some feedback and wanna let you know that I Love your Videos. Im using Maschine now for like 4 years and tried out logic and fl20 but no other daw can give me that nice workflow like Maschine dose. Your videos helped me a lot. Cause there such quit informations like the stretch Funktion in sampling mode that I didn’t know and are just hd informations. I really love to make beats. After my ten to five I went in my studio and start making beats. The chords Funktion helped me out a lot in the beginning meanwhile I just play but my own *but only in scale mode* it’s so much better to play chords and melodies by his own then just drawing notes in. Also the ability to just load up a kit with 16 sounds and also patterns is amazing for quick sessions. But one of the best things I love are the expansions. I literally don’t use any other drum kits that I bought online I’m only using Maschine expansions. But let’s come back to the real topic. You are doing great work and I really like you and your videos they are such helpful and triggers me every time to set up a new project and try to do my own thing with the things that U showed us. Keep going with your work and videos and maybe we can create some nice content in the future together and talk about our different technics and Workflows. But that’s future sound. Have a nice day 🙏🏼 thanks for reading!

Great video, brother! For me, when I've done work in the audio module I just resample it while solo'd and then work with the new audio clip in sampler mode so that I can chop it.

Hey Jeff, love your videos. There is any easier way to change a time stretched audio module to a sample and keep the tempo/pitch. The "W" button on the top right of your pattern timeline in the software. Grab the W and hold it down and slide it into another pad. Done. The resulting sample will be the same tempo/pitch as the audio unit.

Do you mean the waveform? I get there in the video...

Thanks for this tutorial! Very helpful. What I don´t like is that when I switch between the two modules the sound level of the sampe changes. It does sound much louder and powerful in the audio module than in the sample mode, wich is annoying when you try to arrange the song later
