Magnetic Coast, best Maschine expansion ever?? Review plus a bunch of new beats!

[@olesolja1407]

U R dropping some heavy knowledge. I didn’t really know just how deep Maschine is. Your tutorials are Bombastic.

[@jefgibbons]

Thanks for the support! I agree, I was just re-reading the manual again... it goes deep!

[@DavidHHermanson]

The Manual runs more than 790 pages. I've never before seen anything like it.

[@hitsquadfuze]

Me Neither, in fact I was going to cell mine because I was so stuck on using Ableton only but music production has evolved big time!! So Ya I'm keeping mine LOL!!!

[@noveltycrusade]

It's really nice to hear someone articulate their process

[@wul01]

Best maschine tutorials on you tube by a long way ......ever........., clear and concise.

Been watching many of your videos for the past few days now, really like em! I really enjoy your calm and pedagogy

Of the many videos of yours I have watched, I think I enjoyed & learned the most from this one. Thank you!

[@Mu1974]

Came back to this just to listen to the beats again. Really beautiful stuff

[@WittyBoiBeatz]

You killed it and very insightful all around. From sound selection to how you chop samples to your use of key functions are amazing. I know I clicked on the link for a review but got so much more, always surprising! Thank you

[@jefgibbons]

Thanks Nick! Always fun making these...

[@frankpayne6902]

I don't know how you're not at a billion views. This is amazing.

[@CaleAnderson]

Thank you for all you do. You've been a tremendous help to me along this journey of Maschine exploration, Jef. Definitely looking forward to checking out the musical theory lessons!

[@jefgibbons]

Thanks Cale! Glad to hear it... I want to do more of the theory basics etc in the future. It's the most valuable stuff I think!

[@dachopup8495]

The fact I dont know how to play piano but I can build a chord out piece by piece makes the MK3 a amazing piece of hardware so glad I picked it up money well spent

Wow. Love that expansion.

[@jefgibbons]

It’s a great one!

Awesome video again, Jef! Your presentation is simply the best. Loving all your beats and the little tips and tricks that you share along the way. Treacle Kit and Thistle Kit beats were probably my most favorite in this video. Keep them coming! :)

Great! As always! You are a true inspiration! Please make more tutorials! 💯✌

[@teemusicstuff7950]

Hi Jeff I recently purchased the magnetic coast expansion pack that you showed on your video however I am having a hard time getting mine to work. When I drag selection to sound it says battery could not be loaded. Is it that I don't have Battery that it doesn't work? Any suggestions helpful.

[@hitsquadfuze]

Brother I liked absolutely all of them!!! I am a true fan of my MASCHINE Now! Thank You!! Funny thing is I bought this pack and it has been setting on the shelf all this time until Today!!

[@thecondor5488]

I keep coming back to this video Jeff because its just so nice how you make things so clear and easy to understand. This helps makes music production more creative when you can take advantage of all (or a lot) of the options for sound shaping available. Without it getting in the way of the creative flow. Admittedly I liked your chord progression options here so I took that as a base and expanded upon it to a new yet similar sounding beat. :) Thanks for your continued efforts. NI should just go ahead and hire you! 😁

[@adamredmond6255]

Excellent display of the new Expansion, I must get that one! Man I can't pick a favorite, my head was bobbin to all of them...Fantastic stuff! You Rock Jef!

[@lilkc14]

seeing that you sliced your loop sample and it stayed in the pad is new to me. i didn't know that was a thing. ive always got used to the keyboard version scrolling through pages of pads lol thanks! just got a new subscriber too!!!!

[@lilkc14]

also on another note, you might have already knew... you can use the select button and all the pads, since its just in pads by holding select and pressing multi then select your pads

Great job on your channel. Love the content and the tutorial, especially for those of us who have an MK3 and are trying to traverse the learning curve. Initially did a search on the Polar Flare expansion pack and this video came up. I didn't buy the original pack and instead bought this one, instead, after seeing your terrific video!

[@Bigheadedwon]

Watched this video, had to subscribe. I ordered a limited edition Mk3 Monday and this looks like a good place to learn. I downloaded the manual to get a head star, 908 pages?? YEEEACH! I do believe I'll need to watch a lot of your videos.

[@jefgibbons]

Yeah JR! It’s a lot to take in that’s for sure!

[@ed_ms]

Hi Jef. Just amazing how you make every one of your Maschine video's so unique. Every time you slide in several tips I never saw somewhere else. Really looking forward to your upcoming music theory video's. Good expansion with kinda different sounds, especially the percussion sounds. Not my all time favourite, but more then good enough to buy. With the 50% holidays coupon still available it's a no brainer :-)

[@jefgibbons]

Right on, thanks Ed! What expansion is your fave, out of curiosity?

[@ed_ms]

@@jefgibbons The Stereotypes one. The drum samples and the loops in that expansion are brilliant

It was really fun to listen all of that, the Maschine seems to be a great tools, even if this device is coming older, I'm hesitating to buy one. It got lot of potential.

Any chance we can purchase/download full versions of these songs in the future? 😉

[@Narinorth2]

Nice 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@blahblaahblaaah]

Hey Jeff. First of all: your content is fantastic! Well presented and full of great tips. Plus your beats are dope. Instant subscribe! I'm curious about when you move a sound to a group and use it in keyboard mode... When I tried this, the shift of pitch as I moved up/down the notes starts speeding up/slowing down the sample quite noticeably - but you don't seem to be having that problem. Is there something that I'm missing? Perhaps it's just masked by having a long sample to begin with? Or do I need to configure the sampler in some way? Edit: specifically i mean using a sample in keyboard mode, not something like a massive preset

[@brianelbert1191]

HI Jeff, love your stuff, got a Maschine recently b/c of how much I watch you use it so regularly in your workflow. When using the Maschine plugin in Cubase is the the ability to duplicate a instrument preset from a kit (say a Massive bass sound) to a separate group not available? I see in this video you do it easily via holding dup button then selecting pad, pad blinks and then you move to pad on separate group…I can not get that work for me in the plugin. Would be great to hear if Im doing something wrong or a software limitation. Thank You!

[@ChrisMichaelMusic]

Amazing walkthrough, even four years later! Question for you… are you doing any sort of panning/eq in post before putting out a video like this? Your beats always sound so clean right off the bat, whereas mine feel a little muddy/the sounds just feel right on top of each other. Is it just your choice of sounds or is there something I’m missing?

[@jefgibbons]

I usually don't do much mixing for these things! This was a long time ago, so maybe I did more on this one? That must be it!

[@lokologico]

Have you ever tried maschine jam Jef? I hear it simplifies the song creation process along with Maschine.

[@jefgibbons]

Really thinking about it, glad to hear you’re digging it!

[@Taprecords]

Mauricio Duarte I have the Jam and it is a great companion to my MK2! It really speeds up the workflow! Great video, Jef! 🤘🏾

@@jefgibbons Jam is definitely a great add-on. I find that the 2 side by side really enhances my workflow. Thanks for the video.

Right on... looking into it!

[@ZenShaman]

@@CINIMA agreed! Im using both, as well, and totally dig grabbing the jam, and ....well......jamming, lol. I grew up playing piano,, drums, and bass, and have always loved just picking a groove, and jamming, usually something r and b , or industrial, and as a producer, its real easy to forget to have fun, and just jam. Watching jefs vids, and reading comments really helps get me back in the vibe. Thanks!

Hey Jef, the large monitor looks AWESOME!! What made you ditch the smaller dual monitors.... and do you like the one large monitor much better?

[@jefgibbons]

It's really great! I mourn the loss of screen real estate, but for most things I love it. I keep email in the lower half of the screen so I'm not looking up all of the time. Having it further away from me seems to feel better on the eyes as well!

[@michafortuna73]

Dear Jef, once again a great Video, you have so much experience with the MK3. I can learn so much from you! The new extansion pack seems to be very interesting, i think i buy it. Greets from Germany, i wish this would be your home base and i could make Music with you :-)

[@jefgibbons]

Vielen dank Michael! Glad it inspired... I spent time in Austria, and I know Germany is just as beautiful. Planning to get out there one day!

[@michaelstram]

Nice review!! Off topic : the large monitor / TV what model ?

[@YourFreeBeats]

One other note: I'lllet you in on what feel if one of the best kept secrets in this whole "making music" thing. Based on the way i see you approach this, if you start to look for some kind of an instrument to actually play...check out the Yamaha MX49. I have one and am certain you guys will love it. - My daughter wanted a GC Baby Grand...I did better than that. He's a CFX 9 Premium Concerto Piano--three of them in fact....to go with the Baby Grand (it has all the piano sets, and it sounds JUST like them. I bought one on the spot the intance I saw one in Guitar Center,---I have played since 4....it's a mini-miracle, IMO). ALWAYS perfectly tuned. Whew. - Last night made a 30 min PsyTrance clip...harder than anything out there today That's the breadth of this thing. If you want to enjoy Analog on a fun machine....try a Microkorg. Perhaps the #1 selling electronic instrument of all time. So Yamaha MX49 or a Microkorg. Check 'em out.

[@ezrashanti]

Lol, Microkorg is digital. It's a good synth, but it does not sound analog at all and it doesn't even try to.

[@MichaelSmith-mb1gm]

When you are sampling and you are hitting remove -- where is the remove button you're hitting? I usually have to go into the editor and start erasing the slice lines manually?

[@jefgibbons]

Hi Christopher! Sorry about that, the camera chopped off the top buttons at that part... if you click the pad of the slice you don’t want, you should see remove at one of the top buttons there...

[@chrismeiklejohn]

@@jefgibbons I have a Mikro, so I don't have that button. Are you removing the section from being cut or does it just remove the slice line and combine that one with the previous? Just curious which technique you used here, it sounds great.
