Maschfive in Maschine?

Post by b-righteous »

Anyone use M53 in Maschine? Would like to know how efficient it is with only a single sample loaded compared to BPM or UVI workstation. BPM uses a bit of CPU with no kits loaded so multiple instances don't work out well. If it is like BPM then it won't fit my needs for the way I want to use it. I basically want to make kits with 16 instances on a group.

No one got this in Maschine? Just wanted to see if it has a high idle load like BPM. Could someone duplicate an idle M53 instance to 16 pads and compare to 16 sampler modules?

Needed to be said in that other post.

I trained myself to hit command+s before the space bar. But this is not enough with instances of Kontack, Omnisphere, or previous to Mach V 3.03 w/ DP 7.24.

Saving as multis or using save-as manually: cursor into the file name field; highlight; position the 'I-beam'; type a save-as revision (hopefully your bean counter is working or use current clock time) is not the same as a crash proof system or hitting command+s and knowing the session will be intact. All this means even more trackball :(

While you're waiting for a response to your question would you mind sharing your mouse-less workflow with Maschine 1.6 in plugin mode as an example? edit, Funk Guitar is a complex example. How 'bout plugin mode though with non-NI hosts?
