    If you know what are limitations then it's easier to apply you rules and do impossible or Autentic sound or let's say Musical signature. I was able to finish music in Pattern, in one group, with Scenes ect. I had to try everything if you understand.

    Lock States are fantastic and more ways to use them can be only beneficial .

    Sometimes I do everything in clip or I end in Clip , this May EP that I done in Clip mode is coming and will share with you. I was recording performance and it it took me several takes to record without mistakes but it was interesting like in past when I was Working in Studio and Cubase. If I could paste Lock States on time line it would be easier but again it was interesting.

    : when I bought MK3 I was satisfied but at the same time I could believe that it's not possible to do everything in Maschine so I did it and it was not more challenging than Video Games and once you learn it's always like that with possibly some new possibilities ( requested Features)

    Artist who who showed how Lock States can be used on Time Line is the only one on the internet who shared it And about 3000 people saw it.... it's something that many were talking about how it is great to have Lock States and we were discussing how to use them so I was thinking that it will be useful information to share.

    No matter how you using and what you us and which way is your way as long as you long you achieve Sound you want and that Music is happening.

    OK , here it is a No movie because transfer to USB storage is still not possible

    It's working 😃 Automation of Lock States. Finally Maschine is Ultimate Device with Monster Automation that would never happen following traditional Way using Mouse or Surface Controller. This is so fast and it's apply to one ne next and so on . Automation of 20-30 parametets in under 5 minutes.

    This is it. If there's option to use USB storage device as we all used to I would Record sound 😃 but picture is carrying information enough to understand workflow

    It would be great to have backup/restore or export/import of favorites in standalone mode. Its too frustrating to lose favs on M+ factory reset, and too much incovenience to take photos of favs and restoring them manually.

    Already suggested to the team some time ago. No response received yet.

    Actually Maschine controlling itself can control Lock States, Selection and Scenes at the same time by playing keyboard mode and recording them like all other notes and get more possibilities and controlling Lock States or Scenes is much easier now.its not workoround by design.

    This is just a quick presentation but my last so maybe someone will find it useful and can ask me if I need to repeat more precise. It's also possible to record different MIDI routed like I routed one MIDI cable to 3 different independent Groups and Pads. 😃 I honestly wish you all success and to find your best Workflow because it's what is most important.

    That’s REALLY IMPRESSIVE!

    The thing is, how can I do that in real time with a MIDI Controller?
    The idea is to replace the MIDI Track you created for all those changes, and assign keys for that (notes in a particular octave) with a single MIDI Cable or by USB.

    I need to think about this workflow seriously and try it out with a MIDI controller!

    thank you very much for sharing! 😊

    Just enable "MIDI Change" in the settings and plug in/enable your MIDI Controller… MIDI Change's exact purpose to trigger Scenes, Sections or Lock States via MIDI. If using notes the range is C-2 and up.

    Few days I connect my old M audio which I hate because it's got broken fast but Keyboard and Pads are working and there is 4 MIDI channels which is actually 4 Zones for different sounds and in Maschine you can use 3 midi Channels for controlling Scenes, Selections part of Patterns and Lock States which made M+ standalone limitless and device without competition. I tried other Samplers-drum computers and most popular was shot memory like it for 90' and newer versions are...I am objective and I would use device which is capable but there's no other Device which can do what Maschine can. Crazy I won't get to sounds and amount and length of projects. Maschine can play for hours without any dropouts and when I see project very long I counted bars and I stopped at 2200 my setup 6 Tracks and FX for completely changing the sound like it different sound and composition and offcourse Filters and RAUM.. and secret weapon Resochord. That turned to be playing for two hours Song length of

    I had to discover everything alone with Manual and MK3 so with M+ one Artist who was NI represent and he is active on YouTube. He told me unbelievable things and advice not to spend energy on sharing with others.

    You can feel Free to ask me if it's something you are interesting to do .

    MIDI program change is other control if you want to use let's say one encoder or pedal but then it will be one MIDI channel if you use pads or keys you will have more control over 3 MIDI channels and Multi Parameters including literally everything you see just take it and you will be able to control it. At first I used P.chandge and I like it but with several Zones on keys it's much better and internally it's Best to my taste and especially because I can place everything on Time Line accurately like in all DAW's but much faster and I don't need to open 127 Modulation Lanes because I can move Parameter, memorize and with just two Pads with different parameters positions can morph in all directions, you can control 12 Group FX with two Pads or Program Change.

    P. Change is OK but it's one knobs otherwise it's OK to be used for live performance.

    Selection and Scenes are amazing for Live performance because you will be in control what and how will play . Scenes can be Patterns and Selection can play parts of Pattern Clip or Song in different new unpredictable way but it's easy to made setup in which everything can be predictable to you and all these controls can be accurate for function.

    I think I showed everything. This is how it's working and it's same with external Synthesizers. One group one pad and in MIDI option second page. I recorded everything and this should be example for different ideas.

    would love to see:


    Morph between lock states using Control Strip like a crossfader (like octatrack)


    Euclidean modes in variation, more polymeter/rhythm options


    more chord options, including custom ones


    obvi more plugins would be welcome and additional optimization of software

    Please ask me I will show you everything but because I was sharing with everyone I become annoying. Ask me and I will tell you everything. Here it is setup I recorded don't mind music.

    It's music I producing as Daly 5 minutes.

    I am Ambient Drone Space Ambient Compositional Music Artist but it's Maschine it can do everything.
