#MASCHINE CONTROLLER EDITOR UPDATE PRO#
Arturia Keylab MK2, Essential, Minilab MK2, Beatstep, Beatstep Pro NI Maschine MK3, Studio, MK2, Mikro MK2, Jam, Mikro MK3, Komplete M32 And thank you, as always, to SWS Extensions. If you use your imagination and the Actions. it's probably the ultimate Reaper control surface, if you think about it.
#MASCHINE CONTROLLER EDITOR UPDATE HOW TO#
I want to do a multi-part YouTube series on how to get the most of these truly awesome Maschine controllers. Much like the Template I made for version 1.8 in early 2013 (here on the forum, but severely outdated).
and just really have the best of both worlds. I even have a Maschine Track Template for Reaper (version 5.983 tested, 64-bit), that allows you to use Maschine as a plugin, but record the MIDI directly into Reaper, and switch between "Maschine Mode" and "MIDI Mode". the more I was like, I HAVE to do this for Reaper people.
and how utterly customizable the Native Instruments Controller Editor is (Toggle, Gate, Inc, and my absolute favorite function TRIGGER). but, the more I thought about how utterly amazing the OLDER Maschine controllers are (including Mikro MK2!) for CONTROL SURFACES. This has been a huge, huge undertaking for me (began in Nov. (unlike a lot of Maschine's library sounds).
everything you have in your samples folder, that is. super handy, and feels like browsing sounds on Maschine! But bonus- there's previews of EVERYTHING since it's Media Explorer. allowing mute envelope automation for automated mutes (hip-hop / MPC-style), other editing functions such as time selection set start point, time selection set end point, select item at cursor point, split item, copy/paste together as one function, glue item, trim right edge (for extending loops, insanely fast), etc.Īnd, with the Media Explorer, you can use the Jogwheel or Click-Encoder for auditioning samples/loops, enter subfolders with a button (or push of the click-encoder), drop the items in with a button press (again, or click-encoder), or go "back to parent directory" with another. One of the Pad Pages serves as Track Mutes (for tracks 1-8). the encoders serve different functions, depending on what page you're on (such as track volume, pan, zoom in/out, playrate, semitone adjust on items, etc). Top button functions depend on the page you're on: item editing, midi channel routing/mapping, track template/plugin inserts, automation modes, play/loop regions directly, hit up markers directly. Advantage of Mikro MK2- each PAGE per Template can have a different encoder function. You can also track up/down with a pair of buttons. The MK2 and MK3 need different Templates for the Click-Encoder to be set to other stuff, which, after some thought, serves best as a jog wheel (left/right per measure) or track scroll (previous/next). Basically only need one Controller Editor Template for Maschine Studio. (Maschine Studio has 6 total Jogwheel pages which are INSANELY useful). Easily add a marker to your project with the Enter or Lock button on all Maschines. Jogwheel - Jog by measure (left or right), and center button shows/hides FX Chain (or another function, depending on the Template or page). I make indie/ambient/dreamy stuff as well as hip-hop and a lot of electronic stuff. Trying to make each button correspond with good, useful Reaper functions (at least for me). They're all making good use out of the jogwheel (on Studio) and the Click-Encoder (on MK2, Mikro MK2, and Maschine MK3). I've been working tirelessly (and tiredly) on setting up Reaper Actions (both Custom and regular), to make a near-mouseless workflow with Maschine MK2, Studio, MK3, Maschine Jam AND Mikro MK2 (and of course, Controller Editor Templates for each of them).
