Using Native Instruments Battery kits in Maschine 2

This is just a summary of the amazing video I've linked here.  I did this process several times this evening and I think I've got it down but I'm sure if I don't do it for a while I'll forget.  So in a nutshell, this is how you map individual Battery samples/cells to individual sounds in a group in Maschine.

1. Open Battery from Instruments, load a kit on sound 1 (pad 1)
2. Click Channel/MIDI button (upper left) and then right arrow to page through until you get to MIDI page in left screen
3. Leave pad 1 alone, but for every other pad, hit the pad, change knob 1 (DEST.) to S1 (sound 1) and knob 2 (channel) to 1
4. All pads will now show Dest = S1 (sound 1) and channel = 1, except pad 1, which will have a Dest = None.  All pads should now be triggering the same sound (sending same MIDI)
5. Click back to Pad Mode and adjust the Octave +/- and Semitone +/- buttons for each pad to get it to trigger the sound you want.
6. Rename the sounds in the software (recommended) and rename the Group (e.g., 707 Kit Mapped)
7. Save the group in the default location
8. When loading the group, ensure in the software that the +ROUTING item is lit in the bottom left

Again, huge thanks to Aftalyfe for creating this video.

Deep Reconstructions Zubaru

I've been vocal about my love for the discontinued Native Instruments Kore 2 product, and hopefully I've evangelized the series of effects known as the Deep series that included Deep Freq, Deep Transformations, and my favorite, Deep Reconstructions.

In preparing for FAWM 2022 I've looked back on some of the amazing things I've been able to make largely due to these effects.  There are literally hundreds of patches in this series crafted I believe all by Denis Goekdag, now CEO and cofounder of Zynaptiq.

This Guitar Rig patch is something inspired by (read: stolen from) the Zubaru patch from Deep Reconstructions.
