Using Two or More MASCHINE Controllers

You can use two or more MASCHINE controllers of different types (MASCHINE JAM, MA-
SCHINE STUDIO, MASCHINE MK2, MASCHINE MIKRO MK2, MASCHINE, and MASCHINE
MIKRO) simultaneously with different instances of the MASCHINE software (possibly with one
instance in stand-alone mode). In doing so, the following applies:
▪ MASCHINE JAM will work alongside your existing MASCHINE hardware and share the fo-
cus of the MASCHINE software.
▪ Only one MASCHINE controller of any type can be connected to an instance at a time.
▪ You can choose which instance you want to control from each controller as described in
Switching Instances.
▪ When you start a new instance of the MASCHINE software, it connects to one of your other
MASCHINE controllers according to following precedence rules:
◦ Rule 1: The MASCHINE STUDIO controller focus have priority over the MK2 control-
lers (MASCHINE MK2 and MASCHINE MIKRO MK2), which themselves take priority
over legacy controllers (MASCHINE and MASCHINE MIKRO).
◦ Rule 2: The MASCHINE controllers (legacy and MK2) have priority focus over MA-
SCHINE MIKRO controllers (legacy and MK2).
◦ Rule 1 has priority over rule 2.
