Maschine MK3 - Random Beat Making (my starting process)

[@DeleswaProductions]

Them chords brought Club Nouveau and Loose Ends to mind. Dope!!!

[@KnockSquared]

Thanks D ...Loose Ends one of my all time fav groups !!

[@DeleswaProductions]

Same for me bro. They came on the scene back when I was a DJ in 1986-88 time frame I believe. Can't imagine how many mixes I did with their album. Good times & mems...

[@DeleswaProductions]

Bro...you need to finish this joint and release it. Love the vibe...

[@MrJGBarrett]

I’ve seen a few of your videos now and I’m officially motivated to get back on my beat making. Thank you OG.

[@KnockSquared]

JG...thats what I love to hear !

[@emibeats7366]

Man, this is so cool!

[@74mikenitti]

Another new sub going back through the archives. Str8 🔥🔥🔥🔥 💯

[@HurveyJones]

This is nice! Putting the synths in was hot!!

[@betacancri1476]

Dope video. For me I have to start with drums before I lay down any keys or effects. This video gives me inspiration, thanks!

[@KnockSquared]

No way of starting is wrong... Thats the beauty of producing...so many people have different ways of creating

[@marvinbennett8384]

Knock , boy u went hard as hell on this vid 💪

[@bigmoneyrios]

If thats just "messing" around then wtf am I doing? Haha...... very inspiring..... you have so many more sounds than I have on my Mk3.... I have to step up my arsenal

[@lindasson]

Dope tutorial bro and I love the energy that you bring with each and every video and I learned a lot from subscribing. Turned 50 today and I was a little bit intimidated by the MK3, but I'm more hyped than ever just to start creating, thanks homie!

[@KnockSquared]

Thanks bro !! LETS GO !!! #

[@B.E.R.T.]

This is a really great beat! I usually start with a kick drum... Love how you started with the chords! Def gonna throw some jazzy lofi beats down later!!! Subbd

[@seankelly4157]

Knock Squared! This was dope. Huge fan of everything you do. Love them 7 minute workouts too!

[@carolebaskin9641]

That synth lead really made the beat

[@RogerHicksNEXTLEVEL]

[@sarkishelvajian937]

[@ProblemzSince93]

D💊pe Track ... As a fellow Mk3 Maschinist I appreciate your channel ... Keep up the great content

[@KnockSquared]

Thanks Blemz

[@mbf6160]

Bruh I'm really about to invest in a MK3 I'm digging the interface and it appears to have a nice learning curve with ease of use I'm currently using FL studio and Serato studio which are great pieces of software but that maschine mk3 looks like a ONE STOP SHOP

[@bivens3ify]

I'm a subscribing now.

[@CK-ei5bm]

Much respect and talent my friend KnockSquared!! Please keep those fire ass tracks coming!!! Just Thinking out loud!!!

[@KnockSquared]

THANK YOU FAM !!!!! I will !

[@H3RCuL33Z]

Just made my night big bro!!

[@KnockSquared]

Thats whats up !

[@troopermack]

Knock, Always on point fam! Great composition!

[@thisisboomjay]

Nice work man, sound like something i will do, lol, that boom bap.

[@SiRReiLL]

Good Job Bro. After using Maschine for a while, for some reason I am wanting to go back to FL Studio because I pretty much mastered that.

[@D-Major_Beats]

Yo knock I'm still learning. After so many youtube videos of starting a track with the mashine mk3. How do I lay vocals to my tracks

[@psychomuzik24]

Love this one Knock !!!

[@KnockSquared]

Thanks brother

[@dominator8520]

I have the MK3 and cannot figure out how to begin making tracks, im having trouble getting the noises and actually generating any noise at all lol, how do I start?!

[@EmmitElliott]

This beat is fire

[@KnockSquared]

Thanks fam

[@GODLEN]

can you explain what you doing after you say you're going into the extended lock (11:40). I thought you were overwriting the pads with new sounds from the mix.....

[@KnockSquared]

maschine has a feature where you can take "snapshots" or "Lock" in certain parameters/mutes etc to a pad. so lets say i got kick and snare playing... I Lock that to a pad and then I may hve bass and keys by them self... I then lock those to a pad...and so on. so lets say I do that on each of the 16 pads now when I go back and hit pad it will play whatever I locked so its good for quickly getting ideas

[@marcos22571]

How did you do the arpegio is there an arp button on the hardware

[@terrytaylor3492]

Your channel is dope bro.

[@KnockSquared]

Terry Taylor thanks fam 👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾

[@strictlybiznes6255]

Thanks for the inspiration, bruh! Challenging myself to start with chords on my next beat!

[@KnockSquared]

No doubt !! Let me know how it works out. I used to start with beat first but now I ALWAYS start with chords... even if they dont end up in the final track lol

[@strictlybiznes6255]

Dayum, Knock! Now I got a rack of neo- soul flavored hip hop! The chords just make songs jump out at you. Gonna need to grab an 808 just to get that street back in there!

[@weezy_artsoul]

Pure dopeness 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@jaycole1900]

Knockkkkkkk! Good videoooooo OG

[@KnockSquared]

[@aharonwilliams3135]

Nice Banger Computer Love.

[@KeithMarvK]

Well... You got my head bobbin. That's fo sho 👌🏾

[@JL-Breaks]

Awesome.

[@antoineharris3196]

Hey knocks do you mix all your track with maschine are do your use another DAW. By the love the 7 min workout it's very inspiring

[@KnockSquared]

I usually drop it in Studio One...there are times I mix it in maschine. Ratio probably 70-30

[@3kbeatz]

So Knocks is Maschine not as good at mixing as say Bitwig, Reaper or Studio One 3?

[@chris_bennett]

When you hit those Alicia‘s Keys I thought of Bill Withers… and than you started singing it 😂

[@KnockSquared]

LOL I know right !

[@edisonc6430]

That was BOILING HOT.........

[@kielhall8363]

Were sexy beats ? Knock always funky fresh brother 🔥💯.B1K1 family send you respect peace

[@KnockSquared]

What up Kiel !

[@juice__dabarber]

Does the studio have pad lock

[@KnockSquared]

I think you mean like "Hold" right? If so then no.

[@Emotionz223]

Dope boom bap neo soul track

[@Emotionz223]

What camera are you using and what program you using to record 2 screens I have a Mac

[@KnockSquared]

I am on windows...but when I was on mac I used "Screenflow" which is the best screen recording software for mac. I record myself with the Logitech C920 webcam - I record the actual maschine with my ipad mini 2. I Start recording on screenflow (which records the screen and also the webcam) and I start recording on the ipad. After I am done recording I then take the ipad video and load that into Screenflow. So now you have 3 elements inside screenflows editor - The screen recording - The webcam recording-and the ipad recording. I think resize the webcam vid and ipad vid to make the boxes smaller.

[@VillyMarlou]

Can you explain the 16 lock process?

[@KnockSquared]

sorry I am late on this and you probably already figured it out...but if not..its bascially maschine has a feature where you can take "snapshots" or "Lock" in certain parameters/mutes etc to a pad. so lets say i got kick and snare playing... I Lock that to a pad and then I may hve bass and keys by them self... I then lock those to a pad...and so on. so lets say I do that on each of the 16 pads now when I go back and hit pad it will play whatever I locked so its good for quickly getting ideas
