[@lundsweden]

Maschine took the MPC concept to the next level. If they had never come out with this, we would be using some rehashed MPC2000 style boxes instead of the Akai MPCX, MPC One. Competition really drives innovation!

[@DyReckProductions]

You might be right about that.

[@TangoJordan]

This series has been so entertaining and informative, making this a required sub. Great work, my guy... This might be my favorite episode, too.

[@DyReckProductions]

No doubt fam thanks!

[@marqueesound]

I don't think it was an MPC killer because of all the clout it built up, but Maschine did make Akai step its game up.

[@DyReckProductions]

Yup.

[@dotorg5782]

Well said

[@donjuan2421]

Yeah, I went from the MPC 2000 to Maschine MK 2... The chopping and workflow was crazy smooth and easy... But as dope as it was, I found the MPC sound to be better... Went and got an MPC REN and been good

[@JEFFMAN90]

I first started off making beats on the Maschine and while I do miss the quick chopping workflow of it the MPCs workflow and feel in general is just better then Maschine's.

[@DyReckProductions]

Yeah the sound is what held down the MPC during those warring years lol.

[@oldschooljohnny]

awesome. I went to MPC from Roland and never looked back.

[@vibez_kru01]

😂 “That MPC guy...he converted!!!” 👊🏾

[@thebeatrumble]

Crazy thing is Roland and Cakewalk did this with the Sp-606 but like most Roland products they gave up on it.

[@globekingrecords9223]

I sold my MPC 2000XL to get Maschine. I eventually got the mikro and the Maschine mk3. I wanted to speed up the workflow. It was a learning curve, but it was worth it. I am going to be honest and transparent. I purchased the MPC Live 2 like a month ago and I'm in LOVE. It is by far the best machine I have ever used. Now I'm waiting for the ISLA S2400 to see who is the real Killah!

[@DyReckProductions]

Yeah im kinda curious about the ISLA S2400.

[@whereisko]

Faxxxxxx!!! Copping a Maschine was a game changer! Especially when 1.5 dropped and you could load your vsts into. When 2.0 dropped, another game changer. Had my mk1 for about 10yrs until it was no longer compatible with my new MacBook. The enrichment continues with MK3 🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿 great to notice that you didn’t say one bad word about the maschine! Hearing that from an expert! I’m super proud to be an owner of a game hanging product

[@DyReckProductions]

Lol. When Maschine came out it was a trend setter.

[@michaelheath1194]

Heck yeah! I'm loving this series!

[@zeitgeist909]

word - (yes, I am from the 90's).

[@hellomynameisrex]

Switched from mk1 to mk3. They finally introduce the long recording bar, a game changer. You don’t need any other daw like Live, just Maschine. You can do everything starting from scratch to final mastering. Amazing.

[@DyReckProductions]

Sounds dope!

[@titanjake8640]

These series are so dope!!!!! I must admit as MPC collector I was so against controllers. I said no way the wf would be good or better than a MP. NI is known for great software period. So what had happened I was at a pawnshop and say it in the box for $100 I said what the hell. Man blown away. I had to get the Maschine Studio to add to the collection as well. Everything you say is even double what you say.

[@DyReckProductions]

Lol..I feel you..Maschine made some hardcore MPC headz convert.

[@jonathansoko1085]

I remember getting talked into getting a machine, i immediatley hated the sequencer and software and went right back to my mpc and eps 16. Hard to beat akai sequencing

[@DyReckProductions]

Yeah..The MPC has like the best sequencer.

[@studiome6233]

i sold my maschine after a year and went back to the MPC 2000xl till 2020 when the MPC one came out.

[@DJWOLFLIVE]

I love mpc for years and I had the first Maschine but was not into it until the MK3 came out, then I traded both my MK3 and my live for the Maschine+ and it changed the way I do music now for the better by over 70% and I haven’t stopped playing it since!

[@DyReckProductions]

Wow..70 % thats alot fam.

[@joncoda365]

I went from ASR-10 to MPC with a Triton, to Yamaha Motif 7 ES, to Maschine Studio with a Komplete Control. This is easily the greatest production setup I've ever had. If you got a powerful computer, you go a powerful setup. It's so flexible. Workflow makes so much sense and all my NI hardware works seamlessly with the NI software.

[@DyReckProductions]

Maschine's workflow is dope..Alot of folks copied it.

FACTS I GOT A MASCHINE FOR FREE WHEN IT FIRST CAME OUT AND I SOLD IT MONTHS LATER,JUST DIDNT LIKE THE WORK FLOW.AND COULD NOT GET INTO IT.PROUD OWNER OF AN MPC LIVE NOW.UPDATE 2.1 IS SICK.

[@RoomAtTheTopStudio]

I learned to make beats without help on Maschine (Jam and Mikro) but I soon had to give up on it and go hardware as the Maschine software was taxing my CPU after I used a few tracks. It's such a shame as Maschine can do so much, but MPC sounds better and there are no CPU problems with a standalone MPC sequencing the hardware of my choice.

[@DyReckProductions]

Yeah the MPC sequencer is hard to beat.

[@titanjake8640]

Right that was my beef. The more ya do the more it will kill your PC.

[@RoomAtTheTopStudio]

@@titanjake8640 I only use Maschine for a couple of parts and track it to my DAW, when I use it. If I use it for sample loop and drums then that's it. I'm not going past 4 tracks and I'm closing Maschine as soon as I've bounced the audio over to my DAW. After that I would use other hardware or instruments from my DAW to continue. TBH I prefer using the old MPC models than I do using Maschine, and I have the Mikro mark II, Jam and S61 mark II with the full Komplete 11 and I hardly use it. It's a shame because I love the Jam. I can do some crazy things with it but the CPU thing is what lets it down

[@JahmBProducts]

I'm still rockin the MK1, changed the game🔥

[@DyReckProductions]

No doubt fam.

[@abilson1]

And then... the MPC Live came around. I still have my Maschine Mk1 but ever since the MPC Live came out, the Maschine is now in a corner.

[@Benxito808]

But it only on USB no battery?

[@KLOGHL]

Just want to say. I really appreciate your content man. I've been doing music for years. and just now getting my first MPC one. It's good to go back and look at the history of all the great gear. been doing my research. thank you for doing these videos. they are very helpful to me.

[@DyReckProductions]

Thanks bro..i appreciate it.

[@reoscorpio]

i made my first beats using a Casio Synth & a Roland MSQ 100 (way back), went to the MPC 2000 XL, then the MPC 2500... that workflow with first the Zip Drive, and then the little disk with no memory capacity almost made me call it a wrap.. i got tired of GEAR always needing to be upgraded (killing the wallet) & started effin' with Fruity around version 7... it was murder on your computer's CPU, and back then before it became FL and the workflow got upgraded... it slowed me down too.. i did Fruity until around version 11, when i started hearing about Native Instruments.. did my due dill... & bought somebodies Mikro (off Craigslist - still got it in the closet) .. .& it blew my mind. It has everything, Sampling, Mixing.. Effects.. Expansion Packs with the DOPEST SOUND capability, Sounds that come already layered.. SOUNDS THAT BOUNCE.. NI's Sounds KILL AKAI's Crap, & Maschine allows you to incorporate 3-party EVERTHING effortlessly, which is a headache on the the MPC Live (i had a "Live" too, for a minute, get to that in a moment).. On Maschine, for the first time.. i was able to lay down vocals on my songs with no problem. One of my main problems with FL was that it was cool for making beats, but trying to freak vocals with it (back when i was using it) was a no can do... With Maschine its so easy to do anything you want.. & then they also have that app that i would bang out beats sitting on the toilet, and then upload it to my laptop and import it into its bigger cousin.. i would do tracks forever with no worry of how long i wanted to do thangs. Save sh!t on my computer.. & keep going.. HAH. Never looked back.. Last year i got curious about the MPC Live because it was supposed to be the Stand Alone King (ITS A LIE).. Sold it.. Apologized to my Maschine Mk3.. We reconciled... Hugged it out.. & i'm a lifer. It has issues.. NI keeps changing thangs that you love & you have to adapt.. but that's with everything. Now the workflow in Maschine is even mo' better, regarding how you can create your songs, and arrange them effortlessly.. Maschine is what I was born to use..

[@DyReckProductions]

Banging out beats sitting on the toilet..I feel u lol..Maschine's workflow is pretty dope if your accustom to it..I konw cats that know Maschine like the back of their hand.

[@reoscorpio]

@@DyReckProductions Yeah man, i get a lot of inspiration on the toilet hahaha... But Maschine, it really was the MPC Killer... i know i went through 3 or 4 different MPCs before i funk'd with Maschine..

[@CeDubble]

I was infatuated with my Maschine… and then the Maschine Plus dropped… 🤯 🛐🙇🏾‍♂️ all praises due to Native Instruments 🥁

[@DyReckProductions]

Lol..I feel you.

[@biggareid]

I really enjoyed this series especially this episode (I had to watch it 3 times for nostalgia purposes) LOL. My MK1 was my very first piece of add-on gear I've purchased when it first was released. I believe even though Akai rebounded back with the Live, touch, X, and force, Native instruments is still on top because the number of expansion packs and sound libraries are ridiculous in numbers. I also believe that NI caters to more genres of music than Akai and with the emergence of Maschine+, Akai has some real competition. And let us not forget about Komplete 13's integration which is insane, including 10s of thousands of samples, synths, and plugins.

[@DyReckProductions]

Native Instruments is cool..Akai did make a come back with the recent MPC's though.

[@arcologies]

I remember when it first came out, I couldn’t afford it but I wanted it badly. Awesome video series dude, loved it.

[@DopamineOverload]

Rocky start. I bought Maschine 1.0. Slow, laggy (and buggy) software. BUT oh my god the SPEED of chopping samples (and STILL!!) But, it got really good by 1.8 (almost 4 years later). Once I got used to 1.8, the new controllers came out and they totally changed everything (routing mostly) with the 2.0 update. Annoyed the crap out of me. But over the years... good stuff. Used to hate Akai, but came around with the MPC One. I can never part with any of my Maschine controllers (MK2, Studio, MK3, and JAM), and my MPC One. Good, good stuff. Great video, man!

[@DyReckProductions]

Thanks fam..Chopping and manipulating samples with Maschine is crazy.

You gotta remember to that MPCs were a little boring at that time. Maschine was instantly the go to unit because computer music was on the rise and AKAI got caught flat footed. Maschine was loaded with kits and sounds. You could pull up 100 kicks and audition/scroll forever on screen and in the unit. It was the “everything killa”. Nothing in the gear world could touch maschine in 09.

[@DyReckProductions]

I feel u.

[@187onasimp]

MPC was never boring. Matter of fact Kanye West was making sure you knew how hard an MPC could rock in those days. It was the flood of wanna be producers that didn't want to learn how to use equipment that flocked to the Machine because it put everything on EasyMode. The Machine does a lot of hand holding.

MPC mistake I think was coming out with the REN rather than going straight to the X.

it still had audio latency . . . . . it was NOT an audio card. The browser is dope. The sweetspot was the MASCHINE STUDIO with the big knob/screen. There are a couple of logos that are truly top shelf in all that they do: NI, novation, DAVE SMITH DSI, ELEKTRON.

[@DyReckProductions]

I feel u.

[@brunocpimenta]

Dude... WTF?! You are AMAZINGLY funny to hear.

[@DJHoodShaka]

Until the MPC Touch and now the X! I own a machine and machine + and akai touch and the akai studio one and the MPC X!!! I like all of them for different reasons!!!

[@DyReckProductions]

Nice!

[@nucentury08]

Maschine + 😎😎🔥🔥 Workflow sounds kill my Live 2 NI is running the table💪🏾🥶

[@DyReckProductions]

Lol.

[@daeone1514]

Mane!!! I never had mpc before, but I got introduced to maschine like 10 years ago. When I got used to it, I became another type of beast. I know how the mpc works and maschine has a nice work flow too. And yes if you know what you’re doing, you don’t have to stop. Give me 16 to 20 minutes and I got an entire beat going in song mode break downs and all. Maschine is real deal type and the sounds, my goodness. Really great shit. I use FL studio too and the pcm type sounds on fl isn’t that good. So at times I’ll use maschine sounds, bring it into slicex and make magic magic. I need to learn to sample on maschine. I like fl studio tho so that’s where I sample at

I had the original Maschine on Pre-order. I was looking for something that made beat making and sequencing a simpler process. I had only owned the 2000XL at the time. I remember people hating on it before even trying it on the MPC forums ( they hate everything there anyway).I remember dudes roasting me for getting a Maschine. Well when the Maschine dropped it didn't just splash it made a tidal wave knocking the MPC's off the map for years. I found that to be funny but for me I was so adapted to the MPC workflow using the computer and a controller was foreign to me. I played with my MK1 for like a week then put it in the box for years before selling it. I just couldn't get into it personally. As much of a headache as the O.G. MPC's are they make you craft better music because they make you work for it. The Machine just gave too much. You didn't have to work for anything on that unit. It was all on easy mode. Even sampling was obsolete. No one thinks of a Maschine as a Sampler. They just think of it has a Midi controller which is all it is...but you get an MPC in your hands you got a sampling weapon that you know has made certified hits.

[@DyReckProductions]

Good point..The MPC heads in the forums do complain about everything lmao!

[@gruponemesis]

my my my how the tides have changed. Competition breeds champions...an Akai is a Champion. Came back strong with the all in ones...my akai force is a workstation killer...and NI killer whoooohoooo!!!!

[@DyReckProductions]

Lol!

[@xsm5525]

sold my maschine to get an mpc 60 II, maschine didn't give me the sound I wanted.

[@oldschooljohnny]

I came so close to getting into the maschine, but I got scared off because I didn't know anyone that was using it. Nowadays, it seems that everyone's using it! Awesome browser screen!

[@DyReckProductions]

Yup..They have a die heart consumer base.

[@ceptor1809]

The truth right there I went into G.C. looking 👀at the mpc 5000 and left with Maschine micro! Akai tried to compete with their round of controllers but Maschine had won that round hands down people!!!! I like to create drum sounds so I had all ready known about Native Instruments because of their program Battery! So when I walked into G.C. and saw 👀Maschine at work and it was made by Native Instruments! DONE DEAL! I didn't go back to Akai until the latest generation of MPC's! Now I got the power!!!!😂🤣😂🤣 An MPC one and Maschine!

[@DyReckProductions]

Nice set up.,Maschine was really impressive when it came out.

[@madedigital]

I have a MK3 and a JAM i love maschine

[@DyReckProductions]

I feel you.

[@jeremythompson6822]

I just got myself a Mk2 for Christmas soon as I figure out the software it’s on

[@DyReckProductions]

Word lol.

[@ramsey4630]

but what was that mpc touch lit a fire! lol.

[@thedon2703]

I'm rocking a Live 2, but I still have my MK1 in storage. Might have to dust it off lol

[@DyReckProductions]

Oh ok nice!

[@apoclypse]

I bought Maschine when it first came out in 2009 or so. I probably had one of the first units int he states as my retailer screwed up and was sending them out way earlier than they were supposed to. I hated the thing for a good 3 months (the first few software releases were pretty bad), then one day I sat down and really started using it and literally knocked out 6 full songs fully arranged and ready to go in a week. I was like damn. Even till this day (I'm on the MPC/Force now) I don't have that same workflow. Even when I bought the Maschine Studio the experience just isn't the same. I'll never be able to recapture that magic again. Maschine 2.x is too different to 1.x.

[@DyReckProductions]

I feel u..Maschine changed the game for alot of folks..I was always an MPC guy but I saw too many people convert to Maschine lol.

[@KEYBEATZ]

It didn't sound like the MPC 3000 but it did sound like the MPC 60 and the SP 1200(it had MP 60 and S 1200 modes) as well as its own mode

[@DyReckProductions]

Oh ok.

[@BlessbyGBeats]

Rocking and doing beats with Maschine Studio on my channel to this day! Maschine was and is a game changer!!

[@DyReckProductions]

Yup.

[@kennethking5153]

Binge watching this series!! Wondering if you gonna get to my weapon of choice back in the day Roland MC 909. Wish i had that mug right about now

[@DyReckProductions]

Lol. I feel u. You got to keep it quiet on the 909..Alot of cats dont know how dope it was..You mess around and they will raise the price even higher on ebay lol.

[@tonychopper9142]

Man i like these vids. I think after your "What had happened wuz" slogan you should throw in some type of musical riff, to add that tiny bit of drama lol

[@DyReckProductions]

Lmao..Might try that.

[@MrToxic750]

Been waiting 4 this

[@DyReckProductions]

Lol. no doubt.

[@Stuup1dTheProducer]

[@cazalorganism7020]
