Maschine 2.8 update now waveforms showing for sounds and loops

Hi,
Upgraded to 2.8 and added some sounds to a group but am not able to play them on the pads, instead I have to play the entire waveform. I've searched all over the gui to find out why I don't have blocks that represented midi notes but no such luck.

Electric vice is like this, as is platinum bounce in the loop section or sound section, I used to be able to hit a pad and either play the sound or play it on the keyboard, I can't do that now with 2.8 now. I can only drag and drop either a loop or sound to a pad and see the wavform in maschine and hit play to listen. Hitting the pad alone does nothing, though the pad light indicates a strike as does the cooresponding sound in the group, yet no output.

Is this now the default for the 2.8 update

 

Do you mean in the audio module?
Switch it to gate mode

 

Unfortunately when I select gate the entire waveform gets greyed out and nothing plays either.

 

Play has to be activated on the transport

 

So if I have the sound set to gate and hit play I can play on the pad, but if I disable play and try again, nothing happens. Hitting record highlights over sections of the waveform. Seems counter intuitive. If I have an audio clip assigned to a pad, I should be able to hit that pad and it should start playing, if I stop hitting the pad, it stops playing, unless I have it set to play completely like a one hit.

Even taking a sample and assigning it to a pad, does nothing, I have to hit play first then set to gate then hit the pad? Seems like something got switched around in 2.8.

 

No nothing changed, the audio module always worked like that .
Switch the audio module to sampler for the way you want to do it .
Anything tagged as a loop in the browser automatically loads the audio module

 

Seems so bonkers to me still. I have a group, A1, I added Arp[130] A Jabba, or any loop. I add it and I have the choice of either loop mode or gate mode. The loop won't play unless I have play enabled in transport, while I used to be able to play with loops in pad mode (keyboard) and adjust scale, triggers etc.

It seems bonkers again as if I do the same thing as above, but this time don't assign a loop to a pad, but enable browse and choose a sound, I can hit the pad as many times and it will re-trigger the sound, just like I used to before, however once it's assigned to the pad that functionality does not work.

When a loop that is assigned to a pad and the playback setting is in gate mode, and I use pad mode (keyboard) while play is enabled in transport, the sound will only play and adjust the key but not retrigger from the start of the loop at the beginning.

Call me crazy if you want but this functionality is 100% different than what it was prior to the latest update.

 

In the browser your triggering the pre hear

Make sure your in plugin mode circle to left and sound circle to right
And click in the big red circle where it say audio and the plug list comes up
Select sampler

Sorry for the poor photo , I’m a little busy atm

 

It sounds like you want the regular sampler module and you need to set it to ADR or ADSR mode instead of one shot.
