Maschine Aux Sends

Can we please get a few more aux sends coded into Maschine? At least five total. I have certain things I want to be able to do with them.

 

+1

 

Just an idea. Have you tried routing? From sound A Aux2-> sound B. From sound B Aux2 -> sound C …. This leaves ABCDE aux1 free.

 

I just got back to my computer to conceptualize that. I don't seem to exactly understand the process you're saying. Can you screenshot of how you would do that?

 

In theory each sound(slot) has three outs (main and two auxilliary). You can link them same way as you would do with multiple extension chords with three outs.


Ok. Let us suppose that we want instrument/sound X to have more than two auxilliary send channels.

We can send one auxilliary channel to any effect e.g. EQ. Let’s place this effect to another sound slot. We can also choose to use main output channel to route the signal. This leaves both auxes free.
From this EQ (we call it EQ1 now) we have two new auxilliary send channels and one output channel that we can route to where ever we want to.

We decide to route signal from main output of EQ1 to new EQ2.
EQ2 is loaded to another sound slot.

So we have the original instrument or sound source. Signal goes to EQ1. From there to EQ2.

Auxes plenty.

I don’t know if there is latency or something like that.
Pre/post switch is something you have to figure out by yourself.
EQ can be replaced by any effect.

Hope this helps. I can’t send you any hot screencaps right now. Maybe later. And to be honest I can’t try if it really works since I’m not on computer.

Somebody, please correct me if I’m wrong.

 

I'm not sure if I necessairily see where you're coming from. I might think I have it but I don't think it will work for my workflow necessarily. So I have made a template a long time ago where it hosts my reverb, delay, distortion, a filter, my HalfTime or SlowMo tapestop style plugin, my Infiltrator plugin, and my Guitar Rig plugin. Mostly I don't want to link any of those plugins together (but I see what you're saying as far as chaining those plugins together). I usually put my EQ's and sounds I don't want to chain directly on the actual sound of the group that I have either my instrument or drums on. I usually route my reverb and delay to aux 1 and 2 (to save on resources by not having multiple instances) so since they're populated, I now need at least a few more Aux channels for things that I want or may use additionally.

 

As far as I know, If you want to do any serious creative routing, you have to use a PROXY.



This is simple concept.
If you need to have more auxes/outs for any audio signal you route the signal to new sound slot.
Because you can not send signal to empty sound slot, you have to load something. In my previuous example I used EQ. It is a proxy, because it does not do any eq-ing. It is there just to function as new crossroad for the sound signal.

1. Load a new group.
2. Load an EQ, or filter, or something else to sound slot 1. (Start with EQ, and improvise later if you do not grasp the concept yet. )
3.Route the sound signal you want to have more auxes to that sound slot 1.
4. Now you have new auxes and one new out.


Make adjustments to technique to suit your needs. You can route this PROXY EQ to another proxy eq. They don’t have to be in different group.

Bonus. Want to have proxy master channel? Send all your groups to new group. Again, load something there. Now you can have auxes from master channel. You can also use effects or Perform Fx on master level.

You can wait that they add those auxes. But it is not how the game works. Take care.
