Import Midi from Maschine to Logic Pro 9
Import Midi from Maschine to Logic Pro 9 Posted on: 20.07.2011 by Ellen Gribb So I recently bought a maschine and I have to say I'm in love with it. Coming from a background of recording folk/indie bands and artists, I have to say it's been a real pleasure trying something as different as EDM. It's quite refreshing!That being said, I've composed a number a songs through maschine - and until just recently - in Logic Pro 9 using maschine as a vst. While this works great, I really want to figure out how to import the midi from maschine to logic in regards to the earlier songs I composed, before I used maschine as a vst. I need to import each midi track as a separate track in logic, because sidechain, individual compression, eq, and everything else would seriously benefit from the much better plugins that I use inside of logic (maschine effects and eqs kind of suck). The samples in maschine are so loaded in frequencies, it's easy to make a mix super muddy - and i really dislike their EQ. I gotta give these mixes some breathing room! I've tried clicking the "four arrow" button in the group pane, but it imports everything as one track, or sometimes the midi notes wont transfer over, instead using pre-set logic midi. I'm in a pickle here... these mixes really suffer from being seemingly trapped inside the maschine software. Please help me! I'm struggling here! Thanks! -joe hertler | |

| Felipe Gumb 05.12.2011 | Hey Mostapha. great post. Although can't you avoid all that by simply clicking and dragging on maschine audio clips into logic.. either way, here's my question, I get the feeling you'll know how to achieve this. I want to keep my sounds as midi (for modifying purposes later; automation etc..) I'd like to have all my midi imported into logic (by dragging) on separate tracks. Ideally not external midi tracks.. I'd like to be able to use the midi like the "instrument tracks". So that I can organize my track and arrange it in logic, but still use all the automation of Maschine. Ive already figured out the "macro" knobs and how to use the latch in logic to control the effects of Maschine,from logic. SO! how do I properly route my maschine imported midi from logic, to arrange my song? |
| Ellen Gribb 20.07.2011 | Wow, thanks so much for the reply/s; both of you! I'm gonna try this when I get home from work. I'll letcha know how it goes... God, I love this community . |

20.07.2011 | the only thing that comes to mind is to distribute your 16 samples over the 8 virtual outs available in maschine and use these for a better downmix. it's the way I do it inside ableton... maschine is basically a big-ass drum rack with a controller attached |
