33 videos | 177 minutes | by Mo Volans

Native Instruments’ Maschine is both a live performance controller and a powerful studio creative instrument. This course lasers in on how to build a complete studio track from start to finish using the amazing Maschine.

First, you get updated on Maschine’s latest hardware and software features. Mo then takes you step by step as he gathers his raw materials to begin building custom kits and patterns. Then, exploiting Maschine’s seamless integration with Massive, you see how to design and incorporate a massively nasty bass part! Soon you’re off to deploying Maschine’s effects with a deep focus on distortion, dynamics, reverb, delay and EQ, to add clarity and depth to your overall production.

OK... it’s time to build the arrangement. In this collection of tutorials you really get deep into Patterns and Scenes and uncover cool ways to expand and develop the various sections of your track.

In the last section of the course, you learn how to move your Maschine tracks to your DAW of choice (Mo uses Logic). This is where you expand the arrangement, automate, mix, and make your final tweaks before mastering your track.
