    When you say it doesn't "stay frozen" do you mean that you take your finger off the pattern/scene button it reverts to the previous screen? If that's the problem, when you have the pattern/scene button pressed you need to press the top left button above the screens. That'll lock the pattern/scene display.

    If I ask, it's because I haven't found it.

    I think you don't understand, I've had the machine for a long time, and if I come to ask here it's because I've had this problem for a short time, and I can't find out why it's doing that?

    It's the first time I'm on this forum, because I need help... Finding my problem without being able to ask the question on 1016 page is impossible!

    and no TUTORIAL IN MY LANGUAGE explains it to me - I don't understand when someone needs help telling me to look in the manual, honestly!

    Thanks!

    @seecret please bear in mind that if you just title your post "problem" and don't give details such as your native language or that you've been using the Maschine for a long time (which should mean you know how to use it) then people reading your post can't possibly know all those things.

    Based on what you did write, it just seemed as if you were a complete beginner who hadn't learned how to use the Maschine. IMO someone using the Maschine should know the behaviour of those buttons within the first day of use (or even the first hour).

    Anyway, now you've been spoon-fed so the job is done. 😁

    PK The DJ, who are you to talk to me like that? We know each other, if you don't know, don't talk! Thanks! We go on a forum to ask for help and there's always some idiot who opens his mouth and clearly doesn't understand when I'm talking... if you have nothing to do on Monday morning, find yourself another hobby than showing off your science, you're just useless to me...

    You are familiar with the concept of view pinning, right? Just pin it and you're good

    yes all is good thx

    I must have done something wrong because I wasn't using this option at all anymore... especially live ^^ I put myself in studio mode but I think what I want to do doesn't exist...

    I'd like to use Maschine as a standalone (expansion/FX) and use as little CPU as possible because I want to use it live with long samples per pad/track. (My first time on Mac & Maschine, I use just Maschine standalone , but now , I would like work w/ both…)

    But how can the 16 separate tracks I created as a standalone to Ableton Live via USB?

    I'm using the VST Machine 2; all the tracks are on Ableton, but what's the route to send what I've done upstream in standalone mode in real time?

    I have the impression that you can't set it to control once you've created it as a standalone?

    For example,

    I created a standalone kick pad 1 / snare pad 2.

    And I'd like it to record in real time on separate tracks:
    Pad 1 -> track 1 / pad 2 -> track 2, etc., on Ableton. I'd like to record the FX on the fly, what I'm doing in my DAW via the Maschine+, which would then be like a controller. I could create an entire song just by recording live (I could tweak the finishing keys later on Ableton; I'd rather do that than export the tracks and waste precious time…!!)

    Do like Elektron with Overbridge, for example.

    Or tr8s / all piste directly on ableton

    In the manual:

    Maschine+ in Controller Mode becomes the controller for the Maschine software. The two don't run in parallel. So, there's no synchronization possible between Maschine+'s Standalone mode and a Maschine VST.

    So, I don't think we can; there's not even synchronization???

    Is it poorly designed, or am I wrong? Missed an episode?

    Or with sound card usb possible to have the tracks on ableton...? sorry for all these questions, until now I used it in live mode, and now I would like to output my tracks, make a mix, arrangement etc of tracks on my daw, but I am looking for how to do it... apart from exporting the tracks I can't find

    Thxxx

    Your computer (and therefore Ableton Live) cannot use the USB audio interface of the Maschine+ when the Maschine+ is in standalone mode. The interface is being used by the Maschine+ itself.

    hey , thx ☺️

    That's what I started to understand, I had prepared everything on machine 2 and I was convinced that I could have controlled what I was doing in Maschine 2 with Maschine + , trigger everything, but I looked in the manual that it wasn't synchronized, I lost all hope, too bad... I'm ready doing exports :/


    thx
