Native Instruments Maschine MIKRO Getting Started

4 Creating Beats
In this tutorial, we will further enhance our tutorial Project with the following:
▪ We will double our Pattern and fine-tune it.
▪ We will add a second Pattern for breaks.
Even though we have only dealt with drum kits until now, MASCHINE is much more
than a rhythm box. Indeed, it also does a great job with melodic instruments! For those
who can’t wait: Please be patient, we will add a bass line in the next tutorial.
Prerequisites

Building Your Own Drum Kit. In particular, you already know how to:

▪ Record a simple Pattern with that Group (↑2.3, Recording Your First Pattern).
▪ Save the current Project for a later use (↑2.5, Save Your Work!).
If you have any doubts about these tasks, please refer to the previous tutorials before proceed-
