I used to have a BIG bias against using loops. Got over that about a year and a half ago. I just wanted to do something different, so I made myself do different things with loops. And it hit me... when I was in a big city with lots of talented musicians, I would hire session cats to come in all the time and contribute their creativity. This is nothing different. Except I have absolutely no shortage of cats.

@@jefgibbons Truth be told, I was wondering if you’d give us a lil sneak peak, I think it’s Blezz Beats. At least I hope it is. Lolz. Also, some more feedback on the video, the part at then end when you converted the chords into audio and then chopped them using the sampler, very creative. While I chop loops all the time I never thought of exporting to audio and then chopping. Thanks for the tip!

Hello Jeff, Thanks a lot for sharing knowledge. Could you one day address the notion of drunk Groove (or J Dilla feel) is this possible on maschine ? Logic and Ableton allow a midi edition making things possible and easy. but about maschine it's a real mystery ? Big up from Paris France 🇫🇷

3:57 does it work with Maschine Mikro Mk3? I see when you press the 1st pad, the second is already blinking, on my controller it does not happen. If I press the 2nd pad why the 1st is playing, it just jumps to the 2nd sound, which is empty and nothing happens
