Anyone here using NI Maschine (or Mikro which is what I've got)??  I've finally been watching my Groove3 tutorials (excellent BTW) and learning what this baby will do.  Quite amazing, really.  But in the project I'm working on which I started in X1 but now have migrated to X2 Sonar refuses to play the first beat of the loop (or scene) on replay.  The first time the loop is played everything is right but when machine loops back to play it again Sonar doesn't trigger or play the first beat notes.  Is this a known problem??  I recall that when I first started this project in X1 when I first got Maschine it played back the scenes just fine but then...after X1d maybe??...it started exhibiting this behaviour.  I just put the project aside until I could better learn Maschine but even tho I've been following the tutorials this problem still exists.  Any Maschine users out there can offer me a clue??

There is a known issue that if you have the audio metronome (rather than midi) maschine has a delayed playback equal to your count in time.. CW are currently investigating this.

I have no issues with regular playback, loop playback or scene changes tho...

Yup, I've heard of that one.  I don't use the built in metronome at all.  and this is not being late or missing a measure.  This is just not sounding anything that's on the first beat of the measure when it loops.  Weird.

So this is just a straight vst instance with a simple pattern in maschine?.. hitting play in sonar and its skipping that first beat?..hmm..


if its a simple project i can give u my email and can see how it is here?... just a thought

Hi Yorolpal ~ Did you ever get this issue resolved? I'm facing the identical issue with Maschine 2.1.1 (plugin mode) and Sonar PE X3e.   Even worse, it only happens sometimes, not always. I have fiddled with buffers, etc. to no avail.  I see people posting about this with other DAWS+Maschine too.  Super frustrating! Thanks, JBC

Hi Yorolpal,
A friend just sent me his Maschine so I haven't gotten that far yet. Just wanted to say hi and follow this thread (on my mobile and the follow thread function isn't anywhere I can find). Good luck with this. I'll be watching to see if it gets resolved. Have you tried reporting this to NI or checked their forums yet?
