Native Instruments Maschine Pt. 1

6 hours of instruction (2 sessions in 2 days)

This production/performance tool allows us to bang out sound patterns on intelligent physical pads while far exceeding the display and processing limitations of conventional hardware. The whole is greater than the sum of its parts as Maschine gives us a truly symbiotic relationship between hardware and software.

This series of  workshops will examine both halves and work out the strengths of each. Students will build kits using the library, explore optimal techniques for drum recording, sequence effects with hands-on automation, and edit and slice loops for instant playback on pads, all while streamlining your workflow… Workshop starts March 20th!
