Maschine is the best. User friendly. Professional quality sounds and a ton of plugins to use that’s all by native instruments and that’s not counting the 3rd party plugins. Stand alone is ok but limited when it comes to plugins. Mk3 all day everyday.
lol, sweet
only thing with that is the memory and cpu is pretty pathetic for something being sold in 2024 , both in my opinion should have a lot more cpu processing and memory/ storage
We don't even realize what we can do with these stand alone machines. There are so many possibilities...I call it ecosystems and galaxies of creativity that's possible. It's all about the inspiration to me. Inspire, inspire, inspire with your own stand alone sound. Damn! I can never get enough of this...SBN
i choose Maschin mk3, a lot of people say maschine is not a daw, maybe not for begginers, maybe not totaly for currently daw users, but you can make a professional song with maschin 2 and mk3, also maschine audio interface is a grate tool inorporated , basicly, maschin mk3 with the softwere , can be the center of your home studio. much better if you have anohter daw and mix your wrokflow, wait for the new arrangement and maschin will be a bomb.
Oh hell yeah you can (make phette and full music), and you make some good points. Seems overall like it's discouraging to a lot of beginners. If I had to pick one I'd pick the MK3 myself, but it depends a lot on what the attraction in it is to you. I feel a bit restrained on the One sometimes, partly because I'm not muscle memoried up in the same way and partly because some of my typical tasks are just faster on the Maschine but I love throwing stuff together on the MP still.
I’ve stepped out of cubase back in to maschine many times and I’ve been using cubase since it was called cubase vst ,maschine can get the job done allright,I have got old akai samplers synced by midi with maschine , my last albums was made in maschine with my akai s3000xl and s5000 back into maschine , if you go to Spotify and google XBASS second bass ruff guidance , maschine don’t need cubase or logic etc , especially how it’s improved, I like the way software as grown , I was a day one buyer and I really love wat native Instruments have done and improved maschine and it’s software over the years ,
MPC One without anything can be center of your studio? and just $700... ;)
I have both I have to say machine is great but the mpc allows you to do more
MPC Standalone all day every day
Nothing is faster or better than fl studio for arranging full tracks. I've tried them all. The work flow on fl studio is elite
Crazy underrated content creator
#Facts
facts!
For me it is simple. I hate the native instruments style of sequencing although i love the rest of the machine............ But akai just always has the sequencer that just makes sense in my head
Good video sir. I think ima go with Maschine. I've already lived the stand-alone life. Native Instrumwnts software gives you insane possibilities.
Thank you man! Good pick, I see the attraction of it and it's fun sometimes but I went the other way around too lol. When the Maschine was new it was a godsend to put those floppies and tracking aside
Your quirky nature cracks me up man! 😆😆 That was pretty thorough, informative and balanced!
Thank you bro!! lmao
This gentleman is a blast.
mpC ON-AY! 😂
Oh ye :D
Oh Ne
Very informative! I definitely think I’m gonna go with the Maschine! Thank you for this video.
Glad I could help you out bro! Have fun with it!
Subbed, U had me with the whole dialogue lmao
Thanks for making this I’m at this exact crossroad right now
I purchased the MPC One 6 months ago - and I am completely amazed at how good it is. I had the Maschine Mikro MKII - and just couldn't seem to get into that groove. I'm a longtime user of Cubase Pro - so I get the whole purpose of a computer-based DAW - but the MPC One (MPC Family LIVE II, MPC-X) is the best thing I've seen as far as DAW-Less recording goes. It's soooo powerful and I love the fact that I can import MIDI files from Cubase!
Its a solid piece!
Because u had the mikro lol should’ve got the mk3
@@universaldrainsewer339 - sorry, but I just wasn't diggin the whole Maschine approach - didn't like the software for PC. It had a 32 bit version and a 64 bit version and there were instrument Plugins that worked in one - but not the other - which was frustrating and weird. I also didn't like the fact that I was always "tethered" to the PC when using the Maschine hardware. I owned my Maschine Mikro 2 back in 2015 or something. NI didn't release that stand-alone model until either late 2020 or earlier in 2021.
@@typhoolin man I so wanted the machine but my laptop got stolen so I’m swaying towards the mpc one I’m new to production and thought the machine was probably the best option but I just want to be able to jam and sample without fucking around with laptop 😊 I’m going to get it this weekend I can not wait to perfect it 👌🏾
@@typhoolin you have 0 IQ dude, Obviusly the maschine is going to be more limited if you buy the Mikro, you need to buy the entire Thing
I got both. Maschine has great work flow except with audio tracks. Once you learn the mpc software the work flow is great. Mpc being able to control hardware thru midi is boss. When it comes to choppin, when chopping on mpc manually you can edit on the fly were you can't on maschine. And time warping on on maschine is pretty bad. Maschine browser is way better and sound packs by maschine are better. But you can get the same sounds from anywhere. There both are great
Yeah man I love em both too. I think the timewarping sounds near unusable on the mpc tho, but easier to use. And you can actually edit your chops on the fly on Maschine too! Just skip one menu to the right in manual slice mode.
@@BlezzBeats yes I know about manual chop inside of maschine, when I say editing chop on the fly I mean once I make the chop manually I can then move the start and end point before going on the next chop. You can t do that in maschine. And with time warping with my work flow I only need to warp a couple of bpm up or down. That doesn't degrade the audio at all. And I call also do that with each individual pad in MPC
You can, you just gotta skip one menu to the right is what im sayin. Yeah thats definitely fine, like a 5% range tops. W the Maschine even if you go 50% it doesnt sound natural at all but it sounds cool, something closer to what the 950 did. I really hope they get that sorted cause right now it just turns into 56 kbps mp3 lol
@@BlezzBeats the standalone part for mpc is what does it for me. If maschine comes out with a standalone studio later this year. Which im starting to hear more and more people say then game on. It's gonna get real interesting. I would love to have a standalone maschine. They gotta fix audio tracks tho
@@jsutton241 Same here bro its so nice to kick back on the couch with it! Doodle beats out little by little. I heard from NI its happening but I'll wait with the celebration until we see it with our own eyes
It's taking me forever to learn the machine
coming from a regular DAW at age 66
I think it'll be a headache for me to learn the MPC
what do you think
I just bought the MPC One. It's fantastic. Everything you need in one box. Those who say the workflow isn't great don't have the patience or the intelligence to work with it. Get "The MPC Bible" (by Andy Avgousti), and you will become an MPC power-user in no time.
That's a bold statement, different strokes for different folks.
@@BlezzBeats My beats are bold and my music makes a statement. In fact, I'm thinking of calling myself "Bold Statement."
@@leslawrenson lmao ok, just saying its not necessarily an intelligence thing and there are many different ways of working so whats great for you might not work for someone else. I wouldnt get it if I was trying to score soundtracks or something like that. But I'm glad you're enjoying it! Have fun man
@@BlezzBeats I know. I was being somewhat tongue-in-cheek.

Great comparison vid, I think you sold me on the maschine. It seems like more bang for your buck!
Good decish!
I do think the MPC software is dope but I like the ease of use of Maschine. I've got a pretty good workflow in Maschine and it's more simple to move around. Thanks for the video.
Totally agree!
Got myself a sweet MPC Ohnay thanks to your great vids, Blezz. 💪🏼🙌🏼
Oh shiet congrulation Woodie hope you enjoy it! First magical music box?
Blezz Beats it’s my 4th, man. Maschine Micro MK2 (needs more knobbage, also wanted something standalone). OP-1 (dope little unit but restrictive song writing and didn’t like the 4 track limitations). OP-Z (better, but lack of screen was ultimately tiring and writing a choon was frustrating). Lastly picked up the Ohnay and loving it so far. Steep learning curve (new to MPC) but just getting to grips with this bad boy. Mk3 would likely have been a better fit for me but standalone was more important overall.
All I need now is a mixer and a glue gun 😂. Stay fresh, buddy. Keep smashing out these vidz, your channel is gonna be huge.
@@WoodyW2k XD ohnay
yeah want them both, but will hold on to my mk3 a bit more...
Save the money for the pyramid building Beggs we can't postpone the construction phase ANY further than this.

Glad it was helpful!
I got both well machine studio , right now I’m moving to machine it’s the work flow , but they just As good as each other , no machine stand alone but , it’s going become a daw

All true. I find Akai hardware is decent, but software design and updates is less than good.
I have no skin in this game and don't really care either way. Tbh I have neither. Just currently researching heavily which one to get to start out making beats for fun.
From what I've seen from watching hours on YT and reading hundreds of comments tho, over the past 18 months or so AKAI has brought game-changing big updates to their devices that users are raving about, while NI is really slow with it and still not bringing features that Maschine users have been clamoring for for years.
No?
Akai has a long bandwagon of support built on rep from their legacy machines which most people incl myself came from, a lot of that hype which you can see being rode right now on UA-cam. They have more resources and slightly more frequent updates - a lot more noise. Workflow builds on the same idea as 30 years ago which some love, Maschine is a different more modular idea of building patterns. If you listen to what people say you'll generally hear more about what gear doesn't do and not what it does. Don't believe the hype.
@@BlezzBeats appreciate you sharing a wider perspective on this w/ some background for a noob like me.
actually I'm tempted to pull the trigger on Maschine hardware rn, because it's much easier to find good deals on them VS the current MPCs. Still somewhat hesitant as my understanding is that I definitely need a full-fledged DAW to go along with that due to limitations of Maschine software. That makes it feel much more intimidating due to the learning curve of two products. Whereas MPC it's all one package (where of course many will still finish their stuff in Ableton or w/e).
Idk how much the idiosyncratic workflow would be an issue for someone like me who doesn't know any better due to lack of in-depth knowledge of any DAW. If that makes sense.
Any advice on that?
I think a lot of people end up with both in the end. They both have great features. Thanks for the post.
already had the mpc one, getting my mk3 tomorrow
Which one of them do you prefer?
@@amorbukid5899 right now I'm struggling to get to know the mk3, maybe I can answer that question in a couple of weeks. I love the mpc for on the go and hopefully my production in the future will involve both units with the mk3 as the brain.
@@mhtrifreedom8147 I have a MPC 1000. Hoping to upgrade since its old. What’s up with Maschine though? Are you just used to the MPC work flow?
@@adriannunez8868 yup just used to the mpc workflow
This is a boss comparison! I’ve always been an mpc above the machine, but maybe that newstandalone would change my mind
which one sounds better for swing in your opinion? MPC or maschine? A lot of people talk about the classic MPC swing but can maschine do the exact same swing and if so what would the cycle settings be?
You can get any swing you want on both of them, just use your ears and adjust to your liking
@@BlezzBeats thank you
This man said oneyyy lmaoo
Nice vid, 10/10, entertaining, informative and honest. I'm using Maschine and don't like the VST and the fixed sounds in the group. My intention using it is just drum sampling, everything else done in Ableton.
Beginning at 14:55 I cracked laughing, I'm a lite tapper too 😂
Hahah, keep up the gentle tapping!
Hey Blezz, so if I decide to record a synth into the One, can I only record 4 note polyphony at one time, or is that just with the plug ins? That really kind of sucks, because I had my mind made up on getting the One when I get the money together, but 4 notes of polyphony for the strings and other plug in sounds, that's not great at all. Is there any updates that have come along yet for that?...SBN
No updates announced yet, you don't have that limitation with any external synths though. The One can't tell notes apart from what you're sampling and it doesn't have a limiting polyphony limit on midi sequencing neither, so it's just the plugins.
Thank you for the video, Blezz. Does the Maschine MK3 software have a "key detection" feature? And how would you compare the MK3 software with the MPC software 2.10? Thank you kindly. Blessings.
Hi there, thanks for tis video! I've got a question. Is it possible to record several audio tracks and then multitrack export them to ableton with one of the machines? and which of them would be better for arranging mixing audio tracks?
I've had the LIVE since it came out. I've never been much for making beats with a mouse or querty keyboard...but if it works for u...so be it. I like hands on realtime touch and tap... a nostalgia that's the roots of hip hop...which creates inspiration for me...the maschine just seems like an empty plastic box...that in my eyes is a total imitation of Mpcs. The 16 pad roger Linn mpc 60 is what almost all music production gear emulates today. I'd rather go with the company that kinda originated beat making👍
Yeah sounds like the comparison you're stacking up for is more like FL Studio or another DAW, you'd be surprised how hands on it is. Thats the reason I slightly prefer it over the MPC line. Using Maschine with the mouse and keyboard alone actually sucks lol, but it gives a nice complementary overview. My impression is there's a cult status to the Akai Pro brand alone thats hard to compete with, but alot's happened in 30 years. Theres an appeal to having a detached all in one box tho and for samplebased boombap beats thats all you need. Whatever gets you excited man!
Maschine is great but I had problem recording drums due to latency, on MPC standalone there's none. However in MPC standalone I'm missing my instruments, better browser and being able to do everything with touching the screen / computer. I'm thinking about how to use both, maybe record maschine patterns as audio into MPC?
Sounds like you need a stronger computer or a tune up.
I don't know whether to buy the maschine mk3 or the Mpc one, this would be my first drum machine, which one do you recommend ??? thank you very much!
Idunno man I think you gotta watch this video and some others and make a decision from there! I would get the Maschine but someone else will tell you different lol
Not good for a beginner to make full tracks? That’s what I want, but trying to get software to do what I want is a nightmare! Too many technicalities. How is the learning curve for the average person? How long does it take to learn how to make a basic song with 3-4 sequences/ instruments? . Bass, drums, melody, vocals, - intro, verse, chorus, verse, chorus bridge, verse chorus outtro. Is it going to be a frustrating learning curve?
ONEEY for me, great vid.
Blezz I agree with you the Maschine is Faster editing wise ! With samples however I want to Sequence on the MPC . I open Maschine on my Mpc however i can’t get any note information on the grid . Can you make a video loading Maschine as a plug in , chop a sample and use NI drums sound but record it on the Mpc
1996 I started off on The MPC 2000 , floppy /Zip drive .. found myself using the same drum kits . Because you had to literally load , no quick audition .. 2003 Purchased a Roland MV 8000 .. however to get the MPC swing I had to start a beat on my MPC 2000 ( Double) work , from there load the MPC program files into the Roland MV 8000 . But the 8 audio tracks on the Mv 8000 was very Good .. Because you could punch in / out . And you had Comp Tracks .. To cut and paste the perfect verse.. The MPC 2 8 tracks are good for Remixes .. They Made The DSP 16 , back in the day .. they should make a virtual of this for the MPC 2 software.
17 tracks .. Track 1 .. let’s you bring your final sequence over you constructed from Song Mode.. Track 1-16 .. Vocals a Mini Daw.. Last but least if you own a MPC live , one , x . Upon you purchasing a MPC Key 61 .. connecting the 2 Via USB . The 2 sequencer screen should merge .. Now I can place my MPC drum Machine on my turntable stand .. in the other Room .. And have my Keys at my desk.. full integration!
Both unit are Nice .. Sample edit / Program Edit . Pages is not What’s up!
In the Preference Tab on the MPC you be able to set this up . Etc .. For the 1 sample I chop up on the MPC .. Time wise , you can chop up 5 on NI Maschine Facts!
Mpc is cool because I have it
Im only working with thee akai mk3 mini right now but i plan to pull off the mpc one to seal the deal i should be good with this one piece on my production journeys?
Depends on what you like to do!
Ordering mine soon as my stimulus comes in. I would've got it by now but I'd rather spend the governments money rather than my own hard worked money... can't wait.
I prefer the older mpcs but it’s hard to go back to the double moves of building a program after dealing with the Maschine. The editing is cooler on mpcs then idk cause I haven’t seen it but the mpc punch in is a timesaver for flubs. The other mpcs are also good for midi work with other synths. Plus if you have cubase the mpcs are good controllers in mmc mode. Overall I prefer Maschine cause it’s overall easier to get to the point.

Machine plus kicks the MPC butt big time👽
Really? I sent my Maschine + back after one week of testing. Compared to the MPC One it's just ridiculous what NI calls "Standalone". It's always on the Top with its CPU Usage, even when you just have 3 Groups, and maybe one Instance of Massive active. Audio Glitches and Stuttering while running and loading at the same time. Even a Toy like the Novation Circuit Rhythm can handle more Samples and Effects together. Even the NI Support told me to not use much effects and to not use more than one Synth at one Time. But Wtf, this is like you buy a very expensive Car and the Builder tells you that it's highly recommended to not drive faster than 50mph and better to drive alone without any passengers, because otherwise there will be very big Problems.
Don't get me wrong, i love the machine mk3 but the + is just a overhyped, ridiculously expensive piece of Aluminum that should be taken back and overhauled by NI.
Im so happy, that in the week when i tested the + nobody bought my MPC one from Ebay, so i still have a device that's worth calling "Standalone".
@@MH_79 that’s right ! they’re both not worth it. After I weighed in on the iPad Pro as a superior device for sampling and used” flip “ an app on my iPad pro to prove it had a much better workflow arrangement area for songs and patterns, offers a very efficient little mastering suite ( also very fun to use) has effects automatically finds a pitch and puts it on the keyboard or pads to play in real time and x / y effects for performances updates are a one click process etc etc etc and it costs less than the box either one of them came in. As for a device to do beats in “real time” Erica synths new Perkons drum synth is my next purchase. I’ve seen the light on standalone samplers I’ll stick with the iPad Pro for now with the M1 chip for right around the same money as the Machine + with a controller. I’ve owned an ASR 10 many Akai samplers ( when they actually looked and behaved like one) and apps but I was never a fan of the old MPC standalone workflow . It’s just not for me. Peace 👽
Presenting the commodore Amiga ! Love it .....
Thanks man
Gotta represent!
Made a mini-documentary about it btw if you're interested in some geeking out on the Amiga lol
@@BlezzBeats I will check it out !
I am an oldskool Amiga user, bought my A500 at the age of 16 in 1987.
Still listen to Modules while driving my car sometimes.
Right now, contemplating about either to buy the Mpc one or Live 2 or get Maschine Mk3.
Can't have them both.
get both and the force and maschine plus
and also can't forget about a new computer, the SP2400, maybe a s950 for nostalgias sake, a Digitakt and 24 other samplers to make sure we're covered!
Thanks for the comp. Very helpful.
He said, "MPC On-it" lol
O-ne
hey is it possible to use groups on the mk3 like mpc sequences, stay in one group un/muting different patterns (samples, instruments and midi) on the 16 pads? i'm a bit onfused cos i've read you can only have i pattern in a group playing at any given time.
Yes, it's a different structure and I think you got the idea of what a pattern is a bit wrong but let's try to clear it up. In one group you can load up 16 sounds and all of these sounds (samples, instruments, midi) can indeed have their own "patterns" all running at the same time, and all those "patterns" running is what the Maschine refers to as one pattern. Every group can have several different patterns, and one layer above that there are scenes which are combinations of patterns, closest thing on a mpc to compare to would be a sequence. When you arrange a full beat you typically mix and match these different scenes you've put together. So unlike the mpc, there are no programs which you need to assign sounds to, and no tracks which you record midi onto, but the sounds rather double as tracks, allowing you to mix and match patterns as you wish. The snare cant be recorded on track 2 and track 4 for example, the snare will always exist on the pad/sound/"track" you've assigned it to. Check out my full workflow video from last week and you might grasp it knowing this.
@@BlezzBeats thanks for the in depth reply. Yeah, that clears somethings up, for sure. I think boxes like mpc, octatrack, maschine are the most complex devices. I need to get yr mitts on them for awhile to see what's what. I like the mpc live tho, but I'm more into synthesis than sampling. I'll check out your other vid too. Cheers ✌️
@@mrcanisters Same here I kinda evolved into that thats a big reason I prefer the Maschine!
first time viewer , saw his characteristic and liked subscribe
My kinda dude!
Yo blezz, do I need to get anything else if I buy the Mashine MK3? Like software or any other equipment?
Software is included, you'd need a computer. There's a soundcard in there too but I prefer using my own
Nice can I link my Akai MPC one with Maschine Mk3 Drum Controller
Sure you can midi sync them
Damn. Looks like I am going with an MPC One after all. I didn't realize until just now that the Maschine is a fancy-ass controller. I have never used either, so unless the sequencer of the One is garbage (which seems unlikely) I'm sure I'll be just fine.
Yeah u gotta go with the M+ then if you need a standalone device
Instant like bro :)
Hey Blezz, what is the name of that portable battery and the wire?...SBN RESONATE
ua-cam.com/video/GEeNmwX1qLU/v-deo.html Check this one out
Bro, is that a typewriter from 1986 behind you?
Yeah! 😁
So basically the only advantage that the Akai has over the Maschine is that it is standalone?
also how comparable is the MPC Live to mk3 if you know? Thanks
Yeah, really the workflow differences are bigger than any technical specs. Quickly put the MPC Live is the big brother of the One - its bigger (n heavier), has a built in battery, less dedicated buttons, more outputs, possibility to install an internal harddrive and more internal memory. Functionally its the same.
@@BlezzBeats Hmmm, I've been l;ooking at the mikro mk3, if it has the same capabilities of the base mk3 i might get that. Its only about $250, and then get either the MPC One or Live for a full feel of everything. I'm also thinking of using these as an audio interface for my piano and guitar
@@anthonyvu2441 In my opinion the Mikro doesn't give you the experience that makes Maschine worth using over other alternatives. The whole point for me is the hands-on contol you get, and without the 8 knobs, all the dedicated buttons and screens its not a very enjoyable experience.
Blezz Beats I see. I think i’m going to purchase the Base MK3, and the MPC Live down the line. I just love the idea of sampling. Thanks for the video and responses. I appreciate it
lol that was a funny intro
connectualization. Yes!
Very informative and enjoyable video, thank you! Almost ready to pull the trigger for MPC One and then maybe Maschine in the future...

If only the machine was standalone. I'm just about to send my mpc live2 back due to a faulty unit, Now I'm not sure if i should shop around or get a replacement mpc live2. Any suggestions for best standalone ?
I'd either wait around for a few more months or get the One and slap a battery on it unless you really need the outputs, wifi or built in speakers
@@BlezzBeats thanks for the reply. I did like the built in speakers, but headphones will do just fine too, Yeah I was thinking to wait a little, must be something new coming out soonish, if nothing worthwhile comes out then mpc one it is.
@@SAM-LDN Just my two cents, other people think its worth the extra bucks but I like the form factor of the One more and you can always plug those extras in it
Blezz Beats I agree, it’s £400 extra here in the U.K for speakers and battery, it’s too much, I think my faulty unit was a blessing in disguise. Just one more thing; Have you ever had any problems with the one software/hardware ? Ever get a message saying “internal error”?
Never came across it yet! Did it happen when you did something special?
ur a cool dood!!!! love the gear, those retro keyboards lol

Comprehensive and funnay
I came here to see all the Mpc haters 😃
J Fabian there’s none most of us have both
the MPC what!? 🤦🏾♂️
The MPC One. (O-neh. Pronounced)
do the one + vs Maschine +
Have you changed your mind since the standalone has been released (I see you have one)
Also, recent firmware updates on the MPC ONE has transformed it into a beast ... and the price is incredible by comparison?
I haven't, used the MPC One a lot for a period of time and I think it's a great device for some purposes but I still came back to the Maschine after the honeymoon and novelty. Even with the updates the structure of the interface and the workflow in its entirety is the same, on both of them. And thats what really does it for me, idea to reality is so much faster and hands on, the layout is more inspiring to me. Thats partly because I know it like the back of my hand too, so you really need to make the call with your own purposes in mind. The only thing thats changed since standalone is that I tend to do everything in the box with whats available and when I do more advanced chord progressions and weird genres and shit where cpu intensive plugins make life easier I just turn to Ableton Live, while on Maschine I do more groove oriented, sample and synth based stuff that I'm already drilled to do. More consistent 4 bar section looped stuff if that makes sense.
Also I gotta say the Maschines (any except the mikros 🤮) are a bit more thought through ergonomically for the hands. Mpc One is still a great fuckin machine though and if you're on a budget and making certain types of music theres no need to shell out the extra money, it might just be more luxury. Its probably not gonna change how your music sounds at the end of the day.

Fantastic honest response ... Thank You 👍
Nice
Has the Maschine + changed this?
A little bit, there's really 2 main differentiating factors in this case and that's the price and that it's standalone. The MK3 operates pretty much the same and that's the main thing.
Dam I thought it was a standalone
Maschine Plus is, came out after this video
Yo Blezz, what's your workflow for using Maschine with a DAW? Do you do all the pattern building in Maschine standalone and export the audio or MIDI to a DAW, for sequencing (and adding more linear audio etc), or do you use Maschine as a plugin or some other fancy schmancy methodomology?
I've always built the whole shebang in Maschine but recently started exporting it to Logic or Ableton Live when it's almost done. It really depends on what's on it. If theres a ton of automation sweeps and fx i wanna do I prefer Live, if I'm recording an instrument or vocals over a longer stretch I prefer Logic.

Omg you're the first ever to get the spelling right 😂❤ bigwan shoutout i hope you're doing awesome
You say you can’t add sections in between on mpc but you can enter grid view and nudge tracks that way?
Not sure I follow or that we mean the same thing, I'm familiar with nudging tracks could you point to the time in the video where I talk about it?
Blezz Beats you said at some point that mpc is not as flexible as a daw like logic because you because it only works in sections and doesn’t allow for flexibility like adding sounds in between bars. But if you go into grid mode you can move along the bar or sound anywhere within the the track. It doesn’t have to be robotic . 👍
@@12tribes61 Ah ok! What I mean is intersectionally. So imagine you'd have 2 sequences of 2 bars each and you chained them together to make 4 bars, and another sequence on top of that that starts at bar 2 and ends at bar 3. There's all types of ways to work around it it's just different from working in a DAW, many of us work with a loop think anyways but for a beginner who hasn't tried either it might be good to know.
made me laugh, nice
I bought the Maschine mk3 when it first came out. I don't know if anyone else noticed this, but NI seems to be focused on rules and regulations way more than the customer. During the setup process, I felt like they wanted me to jump through a bunch of hoops in order to have the privilege of using the product I just bought. I asked about returning it and found out I couldn't because NI is very difficult with all the strict licensing requirements. At that point I decided to cut my losses at $600. I may be wrong, but I got the impression a lot more than $600 of my time would be lost just dealing with all the red tape. I would have given it to someone, but was told it wouldn't work, so its been sitting in my closet all this time.
Anyway, I'm just putting this information out there so someone else doesn't make the same mistake I did.
do you offer 1-1 lessons?
Yes I do, check out the "Services" tab on my website!
Why isn’t there a standalone that features ableton?
Akai Force? You can't exactly just take Ableton and slap it on a standalone, but the Force was designed to be very similar
It’s called a laptop
You mean a laptop?
MPC One off course))) but if we look at the price - MPC X)))
Maschine MK3 ~$600, MPC X ~$2000 ?
@@BlezzBeats Maschine +
1400 😋 but the video is a comparison between mk3 and one.
The mpc software is just the mpc but on a computer
*with a layout designed by and for autistic savants 😂
I'm here to write a comment.
It was a highly regarded activity and you are now considered a member of the elite society.
@@BlezzBeats yeah mang!
Well,that helped me not make up my mind! Excellent vid tho
Haha, sorry and thanks! I'd say now if it's really important to you that it works without being next to a computer go for the MPC, otherwise you get a lot more with the MK3
I think N.I are going to strike back hard at NAMM in January. Maschine standalone soon come.
So do I m'brother! Hope I can make it there to jizz all over the place
@@BlezzBeats Seriously though I'm saving my cash till Namm and see what's coming out then, may be tempted by Maschine standalone.

You can just sample any vst with the mpc one also
Yep! Thats a really dope feature. Con is it takes alot of prep work for something relatively static that you're likely gonna use once or twice, I prefer synths that i can edit the entire chain through. If they would expand on the plugins thats what I'd love to see most.
