Learn to make a cool beat from scratch using nothing but MASCHINE. These MASCHINE tutorials are for those just starting out with MASCHINE as well as intermediate MASCHINE beat makers. You also get the MASCHINE project file so you can follow along and experiment. Thomas starts with what will be covered, and introduces the song that you’ll be making together. Then it’s on to making an original loop that sounds like it was taken from an old vinyl record, and processing it in cool ways. Drums are next, and Thomas reveals how to create and sequence them using off grid and swing feels. Moving on, Thomas explains how to use MASCHINE’s audio resampling and slicing features to make new melodies and patterns for your song. Creating arpeggiated synths, ambiences and effects is then shown, as well as ways to make a great arrangement out of your different parts and more!
