Automation/modulation improvements

bloodysnare

Master track automation would be fantastic.

Burnside

Step 1: get parity with what any other DAW has had for 15+ years on drawing automation / automation curves

Step 2: LFOs / curve shapers that can be mapped to any parameter (e.g. get parity with Ableton’s lfo tool)

Step 3: global modulation parameters that can be mapped to multiple parameters globally (eg Bitwig)

Use the group bank or pad buttons as scene which you can activate or deactive. A scene let's you slide multiple parameters from state a to state b and back to state a.

You are describing the existing extended lock state view and its morphing feature, you know that?

This would be huge. The Akai force has these features but its implementation could be way smoother within the maschine environment and truly elevate it.

also, the ability to have the choice to make automation momentary when turning a knob and then snack back to the previous value when released

Some great ideas and I completely agree. I believe the chancing numerical values used to be visible in a previous update and was always baffled when it got removed. Definitely need that back

• Lock State colours
• Lock State track in Song

when I change the value of a parameter from the MK3, this value appears in % and make a live automation often...unintuitive !

I would love to map external faders and knobs to macros in Maschine plus standalone.

During a performance, I find it hard to control everything from the Maschine interface with all the groups and submenus. It would be great if an external controller could quickly be mapped on the Plus.

Mapping to the standalone Maschine is a pain right now, because you have to transfer to the computer to map and then back to the device.

Let automation be edited with Bézier curves

Multiple LFO's freely assignable to parameters like another LFO speed or parameters from other plugins

Trigger probability lock randomisation parameters, change etc, more or less like Elektron sequencers

Automation:

• Being able to activate/de-activate automation.
• Being able to select between free and quantised automation.
• Being able to choose between different automation shapes and having the hability to edit the intensity and duration.
• Being able to assign different parameters to the touch strip to play-in your automation.
• Being able to automate Locked States from arranger.

I miss simple, basic fade in and fade out using 2 dot's on modulation lane otherwise I really on Lock States and I Record my self performance so I end up with one file that I prepared, mixed and I end up with Mastering Stage .

I can't see the current so-called automation in Maschine as anything other than a sick joke, and it baffles the hell out of me why this hasn't been seen as a major priority of attention, given how it affects so may areas of usage. In this day and age, how can Maschine not have properly editable and usable automation, and why is it not available in the mixer?????

To me this should be / should have been, one of the major priorities.

1.) Tie-in Lock States to Scenes/Sections

2.) Midi Learn on M+ in true standalone (without needing to save on the Computer first)

3.) Multiple parameters tied to a single Macro with range amounts, similar to Ableton Macros (right now only 1 parameter limit per Macro)

@tempsperdu asked

why is [automation] not available in the mixer?

Because Maschine does not have automation. It has modulation, which is explained in the manual. The biggest problem seems that 99% of the users confuse the two. Modulation is relative to the current settings of the Sound. It is meaningless without that base value (therefore not in a Mixer) but will instead allow to follow changes of the Sound's base value.
