Finally Tried the Native Instruments Maschine+ | My Personal Pros & Cons

[@koncretebeats]

Auto Quantization is in file drop down go to preferences then into the general section you have auto quant. Either play/rec or just while you record or off.

[@shriveonthetrack]

Been on the maschine for a while and never knew this, thank you

[@koncretebeats]

[@Kinglex-gg6vb]

Thanks for your honesty my dude.

[@drewhjava]

Hooking up Fantom : It's in Channel midi settings. you select input and output there. Auto quantize: Settings > General. Go over one page. You can select quantize on Record or Play / Record (which means it can quantize while you're actually playing) Acoustic Sounds: Got to Browser > Sounds > Instruments. Select brass/choir/strings/keys etc. Use subtype acoustic if you want Kontakt sounds: The Maschine plus can't play huge libraries but can play basic libraries. You have to re-export your Kontakt sounds (can't be locked). There are videos on youtube showing.

[@BoloDaProducer]

Thanks !!!!!!!

I’m a Maschine (+) user for years… I bought a used live II thinking I was going back home to Akai (since 2000xl). However, I just wasn’t able to leave Maschine. It’s been a year since I got my Live II and I’m just now really diving into the MPC Software and fully considering a switch. Especially with the update coming. Overall I’ve learned that neither one is better, it’s all preference.

[@savedonthebeat]

"Preference" well said!

Yo. For the crashes. What SD card are you using? When I switched it out with a much more high quality SD card to pull my samples from I haven’t had as single freeze since. :) As for keyboard connectivity, I usually use my Komplete Kontrol which has zero problems for obvious reasons. But I’ve also had no problem connecting my Akai keyboards as well. I haven’t used your keyboard though.a Anyway, just figured I’d mention those just in case they helped. Great video homie

Comparability is imperative for all Midi Hardware! This video has provided me with a crystal clear information. Thank you!

[@blud_lyne]

Finally got that plus.....sweet!!

[@shriveonthetrack]

Bolo, great review. I’ve been using the + for about a year now, previously was on the MK3 and I as well use it with the computer 99% of the time because of the issues with the sounds and kontakt instruments. Native Instruments Playbox which is a kontakt instrument is probably one of the dopest releases they have put out which works well with the keyboard you got there and the Maschine. I recommend you check that out

[@Juliano_DJOL]

I'm a longtime mpc and DAW guy, been playing the maschine software some lately and I like it but it's def a new system with the groups and all. I use it in Logic or standalone software and bounce it over to logic. The expansion sounds are fire but hard to use just cause they come in pre made beats, just seems weird taking parts out of another person's beats. I am also a long time battery user which is how I got into it!

[@xJerzZx]

You can go to settings and setup up auto quantization. I'm almost sure you can set it up. It's automatically disable so you can use shift and pads to manually quantize.

[@galaxiibyfarr6668]

Auto quantize is in the preference settings

[@napolis341]

Thanks

[@jeffthomas4246]

What's up bolo this is Dutch. Regarding the machine Plus, always get rid of the things that you're not going to use. You got to keep the onboard computer system clear as possible! If you're using one thing in the drum kit, get rid of everything else! That will help you out a lot.

[@allnighter1970]

Great vid! It took me time to understand the software, but the hardware makes more sense the more you know the software

[@michaelheath1194]

Your criticisms are valid. The Maschine+ was my first groove box and I love it, but there are some glaring issues that shouldn't exist at that price point. The crashing and other performance issues have always been a problem and were 10 times worse during the launch of the device, but a few updates helped improve them. The lack of big updates is another issue that puts a sour taste in my mouth since MPC users get frequent updates that add nice features to their devices. I wish that you could easily add more Kontakt sounds to the groove box and I find myself also using this in controller mode more because I have access to more sounds. I also wish you could create and save your own chords which would be easy for them to implement, but they just won't for whatever reason (There is no good reason not to have this feature esp. at this price point). On another note, there are two ways to auto quantize your input. Hit the Settings button and navigate to page 2. From there, you'll see the word Quantize which should probably have 'None' below it. Changing the 'None' to 'Record' or 'Play/Rec' will enable auto quantize. Quantizing while playing is handled differently from quantizing while recording. I'd look into the manual for more info.

[@BoloDaProducer]

Thanks!!!! For the Auto Quantize!!!

[@magnuseriksson8081]

I used a few other groove boxes before Maschine plus, Roland MC101, and MV1 so for me the Maschine plus was like a dream except for all the crashes I had, works much better after the update 1.4 though but it's so hard to get your projects with ease to Logic Pro. They do not seem to be super good at support either and that is so frustrating I bought some plugins and VST and it was not clear to me that it is not working on the Maschine plus, how do I know what I buy will work on the plus?? Again, NI is not really communicating that well? No good support email and phone number?

[@watchandproduce]

Bought an MPC Live 2 and Maschine MK3 at the same time (both used units). I find the Maschine MK3 way easier to make progress with as a total newbie. And the entire computer plus hardware based workflow is just tight in comparison to AKAI. Having said that I do like what AKAI is doing (especially with all those updates). I hope AKAI adds even more vocal and effects options for standalone/live performance. This really should be an area that AKAI owns. If I had to buy only one unit it would definitely be a Maschine MK3 (not the plus). I’m happy that I get to play in both the Native Instruments and AKAI world as they are unique.

Tips against crashing: 1. Get a fast SD card, the ones that comes with it is a cheap/shitty one. Get one of the Extreme Pro's from Sandisk 2. Get on the latest software version (1.4) this fixed a lot of issues 3. Make sure your library is scanned before putting it through heavy use

This is cool. I thought about getting one but the FORCE handles most of my workstation needs, Ableton handles the rest.

[@illeagle8041]

When you’re in the sound bank there is a instruments option in there. Your natural sounds and a lot of other sounds are there. Also fwiw it’s a maschine product that you can load every maschine expansion into it. We may eventually get more vsts but those are part of Komplete and it may be a little unfair to expect all of that to work inside maschine. I believe the biggest glaring problem is the crashing and it seems directly related to the md drive. And now I’ve got to go see about the auto quantize I assumed it was there but haven’t checked. I’m glad not to have the touch screen. lol don’t like how the touch on mpc still has a bunch of menu diving and not very muscle memory friendly.

[@ed_ms]

I don't understand the M+. The MK3 and a laptop can do anything a M+ can, and are about as standalone as the M+, but with al the perks of using the Maschine software and any VST you want. The M+ offers a watered down version of all that, but at twice the price, and doesn't seem to be a very stable device neither. I love the NI software and hardware, don't get me wrong, but besides using a Machine without a computer, I think the M+ does not makes much sense. I'll happily continue using my MK3, almost bug free and crash free for 4 years now.

[@magnuseriksson8081]

Its so nice to be able to use the Plus without a computer at times, I love that experience a lot but I get what you are saying, NI should have done better but I love the Maschine+

[@leogolive]

@Ed M💯

[@555crooked]

After a couple of updates, it’s a little more stable.plus the new features help with adding more instruments without overloading the CPU now.

[@BeauTylerMakesMusic]

Totally fair. But the argument would be that the M+, when connected to a computer, can do everything the MK3 can do yet it can also work in standalone (while having limitations). If that’s worth the price difference to someone is totally up to them, but it’s not really an either/or situation since the Plus serves both roles. That being said, you’re totally right in that it’s not like the Maschine wasn’t already portable with a laptop.

[@magnuseriksson8081]

@@BeauTylerMakesMusic I hope they make the M+ more powerful over time with better software updates and a much easier song mode for vocals and other instruments you record across the whole song. A great phone and Ipad integration could take the portable solution to the next level maybe? I'm surprised that it's not happening already, it could make it a lot easier to do a lot of things and have an amazing overview of all that you do, and add touch solutions in a very small package.

Backyard Jams, Soul Magic, Crate Cuts, DJ Khalil, and Certified Gold sound packs are dope. Start in ideas mode at all times and if you need natural instruments they have the packs for those like Alicia's Keys and their AbbeyRoad drummer packs too. The standalone is cool but the MK3 is better with a computer hands down and you'll save money. The standalone is more for live performing like beat battles.

The crash issue is from the latest update. I have the same issue on the M+ when I try previewing some sounds from the Library on the computer. That's actually a real problem lately but It's an update issue. Same here I use it more like a MK3 but that's me. Now for the Kontakt and other plugin in the M+ that thing is still new and they still developping a way to add the whole Komplete in this. For now It's Massive and some light stuff but non serious Plug In yet. It may have to do with the internal CPU. Now to Hook up with another daw you can get away with the midi settings but in reality it's a whole other nerd thing with the Controller Editor app to set up the Maschine properly. Actually I have some template with Studio One on my Drivensounds KZbin Channel (and some sounds too). And you just gave me an idea too.... (From that same guy than last Time)

The time consuming things are looking for and shaping sounds.... you can easily lose inspiration digging through the infinite amount of sounds they provide...

Yo just USB your MIDI Keyboard to Mac/PC. Since you have Kontrol Keyboard your MIDI keyboard will follow the Kontrol Keyboard. If you don't have Kontrol Keyboard "On" then your MIDI keyboard will act Generic inside Maschine. No MIDI cables needed, just make sure Kontrol Keyboard is powered on and all MIDI keyboards will follow KK Keyboard and features. Only sounds Preview for NKS files. Open Massive and Kontakt standalone setup library then when back in Maschine. When you open the plugin the 3rd party presets will be in there not in Maschine browser. Only when you right-click save sound in Maschine preset will be in User browser. Yea only after Maschine is when them 3rd party Kontakt disappear in main Library view. You have to use Database view where you'll search instruments of Library that's not in the Library view.
