You will learn to love scenes, as I have. Maschine is probably the most intuitive program I have used. I like the beat though.
Something I made last night/this morning when I couldnt sleep.
Digging the drum track. Sampling is a bit spartan, but overall I dig what you've got going here.
And I don't think I'll ever come to love MASCHINE's layout, man. The hardware and quick-trigger fts of the software are ace but this tracking is a no go. Coming from a background of just jamming on a piano or bass, this recording into very mechanical segmented chunks isn't me.
You just gotta duplicating and start counting, is what I do. I don't like it either but for now it'll do. I think we'll see more FL Studio style song tracking in a future update though. As it's something people bring up a lot on the maschine forums.
I'm not to sure how FL tracks, but if it's anything like Logic, I'll be in heaven.
tight sample miri! earlier i said i'm finally getting familiar with Reason, i just exported a short little snippet of what i've been working on. just really getting a feel for the GUI and all the instruments. what you dudes think so far? if i keep working on this i'll be doing a bunch more to it, but i may just scrap it in the end.

> what are some good tips for producing? like the shit to avoid and the staples of the 'industry'?
Thanks! I actually really dig what you got here. Off-beat. Just the way I like it.
And as for producing, I have no clue; I've found my sound sounding more electronic than anything lately - which is probably my natural inclination towards artists such as Danger/Daft/Justice getting the best of me when playing around in a suite like this, so I say that your sound will come naturally like your fav style of music to listen to- branch out from there, like Toku says.
