Maschine Mk3 - Exploring VARIATION Mode

In this video we take a look at the Variation mode on the Maschine MK3.

We begin by using this to Humanize velocities between a set range to add a more organic feel to some live percussion hits and some hi-hats that have bee added via the Note Repeat function.

We then take this concept one step further and use the Random control as a creative way to add some melodic content to our project, chopping a pad sample via sample slicing and then using the Variation Random engine to randomise the events created in the pattern.
