Not a tutorial, just a cool video on NI MASCHINE 1.5.

·0 comments·

Yesterday Native Instruments released MASCHINE 1.5, a major free update that significantly increases the functionality and creative potential of the acclaimed computer-based music production system. With more classic drum machine features, improved host integration, new sampling functions, an extended sound library, and even more efficient workflow, the 1.5 software expands on the concept of MASCHINE as the most integrated and intuitive groove production studio for producers, live musicians and DJs. Below is a video of Justin Myracks, aka F Major, who builds a beat from scratch on Maschine version 1.5. This is not a tutorial – it simply shows how fast and hands-on Maschine is for creating a great groove.
