No sound midi mode maschine mk3
Got me a new Maschine Mk3 . everything seems to work fine exept in midi mode.
I want to use it in Cubase ( W10) and call me stupid, i cant get any sound.
There is input but no sound. In Cubase, I add a track -instrument - Kontakt - choose Modern drummer . On the left side in cubase : input : Maschine MK3 extern midi - Kontakt and as midi channel "any" underneath that at programm selector : I see a list "midi channel 0 program 0 up to midi channel 0 programm 127.
In midi mode it should work like any other keyboard right? instead of key's ther are pads thats all ?
There seems to be input when tapping a pad, but no sound at all and shouldn it be vissable in the Cubase vst instrument list? it isn't right now.
What am i doing wrong please?

Thanks everyone very much for the answers and your help! My Maschine is working now the way I hoped it would. The correct MIDI port of the MK3 whas indeed Maschine MK3 Ctrl MIDI. The other ones I have checked are the UCX Midi port 1 and 2 ( My main audio interface ) I did the same in Cubase studio settings.

Hey @Theo van de Ven, what are your audio routing in Maschine and Cubase? You want to get the audio output set to your soundcard or whatever device you're using to monitor 🔍

Mk3 Ext midi is for passing midi through the midi port on the back of the mk3. So that's the wrong midi device.
Also check which midi notes each drum is on, and that the pads are set to the right midi notes, and that they are set to the same channel.

You could also just load Maschine 2 as a vst in Cubase and open Modern Drummer in Maschine.

Thanks RedwardMc, But if Mk3 Ext midi is the wrong midi port than what should i use? There are no more midi in or out ports visable for the maschine, the only other one is Mk3 Cntrl midi- not in or out

in machine 2 the audio routings are : Audio : Interface driver = ASIO / Device = ASIO Fireface USB / Status = running / sample rate = 44.100
input machine 2 = port analog 1 ( L) input machine 2 = port analog 2 ( R)
MIDI : input = Maschine Mk3 Ext mid - Maschine Mk3 Cntrl mid - UCX Midiport 1 and UCX midiport 2
MIDI Outputs = Maschine Mk3 Ext mid - Maschine Mk3 Cntrl mid - UCX Midiport 1 and UCX midiport 2
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In Cubase : Studio setup : midiport setup: Windows MIDI - I/O in = Machine MK3 Ctrl MIDI = active
Windows MIDI in= Machine MK3 EXT MIDI= Active
UCX Midiport 1 in = UCX Midi port 1 = active
UCX Midiport 2 in = UCX Midiport 2 + active
midi out : all the same as midi in
----------------------------------- PS : when I select only in and outputs RME UCX Midiports in Normal mode , I only have a output signal in Cubase
when I select only in and outputs RME UCX Midiports in Midi mode, I only have a input signal in Cubase

@Theo van de Ven screenshots in Cubase would be helpful here. The correct MIDI port of the MK3 would be Maschine MK3 Ctrl MIDI. For the rest, it's a bit confusing. What soundcard are you using for Cubase ? The RME or the Maschine MK3 audio ?
