    Having an automation clip/ track that moves across multiple clips is super powerful - first , to avoid repetitive automation and second, its especially great for ambient drones and pads (created from shorter clips with reverb and sustain) to create subtle changes and movement across the entire song. Another good TIP: When in a clip view using hardware, you can switch beteeen events and keyboard mode without loosing the view you're in by pressing shift/keyboard or shift/events etc.

    I definitely learned a lot. Long time maschine user. I never used clips. I will now!!!!!

    Great video and overview! I will definitely get into clips a LOT more because of this. One thing about the choke groups: for the 808, I've always found it easier to set it to ADSR mode and drag the notes out. This provides extra control over the release, ensuring there are no clicks when the sound is cut off.

    You really just made me fall back in love with my MK3. I was getting so frustrated with arranging in Maschine and ended up getting Ableton but couldn't let go of the hands on work flow Maschine has. I also really like native instruments sounds and have Komplete 13 so i really want to get the most out of these sounds and browsing through them on Ableton is just not it compared to the mk3. What blew my mind here was using clips for automation! YESSSS!!!!!!! Thank you. Subscribed!

  • I come from a traditional studio/DAW background and I recently got a Maschine Mikro, and i get the feeling this is a very powerful device beyond what I thought it would be useful for. Appreciate the video, very interesting
  • Great video. Clips were always a bit of mystery to me, even when I used them, I never felt I understood what was going on. This helps!

    Great video! You deserve a sub for this. I mainly use clips to arrange my beats or make edits within them but now you've shown me more ways on how I can use them. Thanks. Looking forward to more vids like this.
