I have found the Maschine Mk3 and Maschine 2 software incredibly frustrating to use. I have not been able to figure out how to integrate it into my workflow, and it currently sits next to my computer as a glorified midi controller that I use to audition sounds when I do sound design. It hardly seems worth the price that was paid for it. The software is not intuitive, and without the software, the Mk3 loses most of its functionality. Is there an easy way to pull the midi out, and sidechain to the kick, or even sidechain to the kick with the pattern still in Maschine 2, without having to pull it out, duplicate the track, and have the kick on one track, and everything else on another track? I use Ableton 11 Suite.
