Those buttons have CC assignments… the default assignment shows SCENE is CC 112 (usually). Now, see the column of buttons that go from “SCENE” down to “MUTE”, directly to the left of the pads? We’re going to use these 8 buttons to select tracks in REAPER, via MIDI, that match Maschine’s groups. Set the following pads chromatically in Group A to the following MIDI notes:ġ. This is the only group you will use, as you will use other buttons on the Maschine hardware to select your groups (magically, with REAPER!)ģ. You may have to go to the “Pad Pages” section of the Control Editor software, and enable Group A.

Set the Pad Velocity Curve to Soft 3 in the Template section of the Control Editor software (Soft 3 is the closest sensitivity to “Maschine Mode” (it’s REALLY close… like, almost exact). Rename it to “Maschine in REAPER” or whatever you want.ġa. Open up the Controller Editor software, and pick a template to use. Maschine’s “Controller Editor” software setupįirst set the controller sensitivity to Maximum in Maschine’s File menu.ġ. Now we have to do a lot of configuring in Maschine’s “Controller Editor” software. It IS changing the midi channel for each group. *Maschine looks like it’s doing a global thing with the channels (showing the last channel number you selected, even though you’re on a different group). Once this is done, right-click the Group name directly to the left of your Scene view, and choose “Sound MIDI Batch Setup.” Select “Sounds To Midi Notes”.įor Group A (Channel 1), choose Channel 1.įor Group B (Channel 2), choose Channel 2… so on, so forth. This is easily done by first dropping a sample (any wav file) onto a single pad in each Group (so the group is active/highlighted).
Set Maschine to route each Group to a certain MIDI channel. Set track 1’s MIDI input (in REAPER) to “Map Input To Channel” and then select Channel 1.ĭo the same for all the other tracks– track 2 will be mapped to Channel 2, track 3 will be mapped to channel 3, etc. Repeat for all other tracks and groups.Ĥ. Name track 2 “GROUP B” or “B” or whatever you like. Name track 1 “GROUP A” or “A” or whatever you like. *Set each of these tracks to “RECORD: OVERDUB” by right-clicking the record arm icon (this is important especially when you’re looping a section and building a pattern).ģ.
*Make all of their inputs be MIDI: ALL INPUTS, and set each track’s record mode to “Automatic Record-Arm When Track Selected” (right-click the record arm icon). This is the #1 reason I prefer using Maschine as a VST… for sample-chopping (quickly and easily), and tapping these chops out to pre-made loops just to get a song idea going, and fast. and BONUS- you get REAPER’s Media Explorer, and time-stretched looping. This configuration is great if you prefer to use REAPER’s sequencer and do a lot of MPC-style sample chopping and whatnot. I’ve since found that it’s actually VERY advantageous to go into Controller Mode with Maschine, once everything is set up properly with REAPER. Last weekend I worked hard on getting Maschine to work great as a VST inside REAPER (multi-timbrally), without going into Controller Mode.

Maschine as VST in REAPER – FULL TUTORIAL plus Controller mode config Big thanks to Chris for sharing this great tutorial. When I came across the tutorial it looked too good not to share. This is a guest post from Chris Caulder, originally posted on the forum.
