Would it then become a Fruit Maschine? 🤣
You pull a lever and when it makes a good beat, you get small change.
[Feature Request] Playlist Length Always in Minutes
Currently if the length of a playlist is longer than an hour, Traktor displays it as hours with decimals (e.g. 1.1 hours).
As someone who regularly compiles and records radio shows in Traktor, that have to be a certain length this is quite annoying because with one decimal place it's quite inaccurate and also unintuitive.
i suggest either a toggle through different modes when you click on the time or just to have it in hours:minutes(:seconds) permanently.
Re: Maschine 3.4 Update: The New Modulation Editor is Here
Where is the manual for these new features? Or do we simply have to 'play around' and discover them?
Manuals and instructional material should be accessible immediately from inside both Native Access and the Maschine app. We shouldn't have to go crate diving to try to find out how to use new features. Because that disrespects the amount of work the developers have put in to implement these changes and is immensely frustrating for users.
And, if you've rebuilt it from the ground up, why not give users the option to control the blackness of the background, which makes actually seeing any of the gridlines all but impossible?
With all that said, this is a decent improvement on Maschine's previously rather pitiful modulation editing capabilities. It's now in line with that of DAWs from the early part of this century. Which means I might use it if I was recording material solely on my Maschine. I'll still do all my automation and programming via my DAW most of the time, using Maschine as a hardware controller and sound box rather than a sequencer.
Maschine Plus - System Update 2.1.1.0: What's new
Hi everyone,
We've released MASCHINE+ System Update 2.1.1.0, a small maintenance update that brings MASCHINE+ in line with the latest desktop software release [Maschine 3.4.2]
This update includes one performance improvement and three bug fixes:
- Improved: Reduced CPU load when performing with MASCHINE while a KONTROL S-Series MK3 keyboard is connected
- Fixed: Modulation at Pattern boundaries could break when using Double on a Pattern
- Fixed: Recording audio loops could ignore the current Scene tempo
- Fixed: Bass Synth Legato mode was not working as expected on Oscillator 2
Important note:
The Bass Synth fix may affect audio compatibility with existing projects using the previous version of the bass synth.
This thread will stay open for a week for any feedback or questions you may have.
As always, thanks for your feedback and continued support.
Re: More information on future updates M+
FYI Akai are in exactly the same situation. Their desktop MPC software is currently not compatible with the standalone MPC 3 OS. They've really knocked it out of the park there apparently. 🤔
Saying it's a scam is ridiculous. NI said from the start that the standalone OS would be made compatible, and they've given a timeline for that. While we wait, we can continue to use Maschine 2 software.
Re: Beware of purchasing 3rd party plugins!!!!!!
@Derek N We would appreciate that you don't use this kind of language, even with little stars to make it look ok. It's pretty clearly stated in our Code of Conduct.
Regarding the issue. Yes, this was a third party library that was part of an offer. The downloads were not handled by Native Access back then, it was the very beginning of Native Access and only NI products and very few third party were. Things are a little different now. Lots of NKS products are now completely handled by Native Access.
Unfortunately, this third party company ceased to exist so now you can't find installers. We can't be held responsible for that. It was a third party product, part of a bundle, not a NI product.
I see that you contacted us back in 2023 about it and back then we didn't have access to the files. After some little internal research, it seems someone uploaded the files in 2024. I will send you a link to the zipped library by direct message.
Re: Midi clock sync, unstable and high jitter
Here it is:
I uploaded a windows .exe file under releases.
On mac os you can follow this guide on how to install cargo: Just a single command.
Once you done that, you can compile my program with cargo build --release, and run with cargo run. And also have a binary you can copy and start in target/release.
Good luck, tell me how it goes :)
Re: update planning Maschine Plus 2026?
Sampler engine - a mono option in the sampler engine would be great (maybe next to the sampler engine selection).
Audio engine - a loop / beat length option and being able to move though the loop in beat intervals would be very useful.
Variation engine - expanding the engine by using the eight macro knob to generate notes and sequence variations on the fly while playback is running (similar to torso t1)
Re: After update, Massive X PM seems to be broken.
We have just released Massive X 1.7.1. Could you check if this fixes your issues?
FIXED:
- Pitch parameter automation only worked in semitones, not cents
- PM parameter automation not smooth
- Different scaling for some parameters between Ul and automation
Re: Known Issue: BeatSource and or BeatPort Log In Crash
Hey everyone, some feedback and possible workaround for this issue:
Some users are experiencing a crash when starting Traktor, which prevents it from opening properly.
This issue appears to be related to permissions in the __guest folders (located inside the Streaming/Beatport folder and Streaming/Beatsource folder). To resolve it, follow these steps:
1. Before launching Traktor, verify your network:
• Make sure Internet/Wi-Fi is ON and you have a stable connection.
• Ensure there are no access restrictions to Beatport/Beatsource services.
2. Try to launch Traktor.
• It may crash during the first startup.
• Once it crashes, make sure Traktor is completely closed.
3. Navigate to the Beatport folder and Beatsource folder, depending on your operating system:
• Mac: Library folder is not visible by default: enable the visibility of the Library folder
(to access the Library folder, it is necessary to press Alt+Go in Finder).
path: /Users/user.name/Library/Application Support/Native Instruments/Traktor/Streaming/Beatport and /Beatsource
• Windows: C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Native Instruments\Traktor\Streaming\Beatport and /Beatsource
4. Delete the __guest folders located in the paths above.
5. Launch Traktor again.
• New __guest folders will be automatically created.
We're still working on a fix.
