Where To Start; About This Document - Native Instruments Maschine Jam Manual

Naming Convention
Throughout the documentation we will refer to MASCHINE JAM controller as the controller and
MASCHINE software as the software installed on your computer.
The term "effect" will sometimes be abbreviated as "FX" when referring to elements in the
MASCHINE software and hardware. These terms have the same meaning.
Button Combinations and Shortcuts on Your Controller
Most instructions will use the "+" sign to indicate buttons (or buttons and pads) that must be
pressed simultaneously, starting with the button indicated first. E.g., an instruction such as:
"Press SHIFT + PLAY" means:
1. Press and hold SHIFT.
2. While holding SHIFT, press
3. Release SHIFT.
