Loading Groups With Patterns - Native Instruments MASCHINE MK3 Manual

Auditioning Samples using the Controller
When browsing Samples on your controller:
Press SHIFT + Button 8 (PREHEAR) to enable/disable the Prehear function.
►
When Prehear is enabled:
▪ The Sample selected in the result list can be triggered from the pad of the focused Sound
or from any pad without being loaded into that Sound.
▪ Pressing any other pad triggers its Sound without changing the focus. To set the focus to
another Sound you have to press
▪ Turn the 4-D encoder or Knob 8 to select the previous or next Sample in the result list.
Upon selection this Sample is played back and the previous Sample stops playing.
▪ Button 5 (PREV) and 6 (NEXT) do not automatically load the Sample they select as they
usually do (see section
play it back as well.
▪ To load the Sample, press the 4-D encoder or Button 8 (LOAD).
When you disable Prehear, the playback of any Sample still being pre-listened is stopped.
The Prehear signal is sent to the Cue bus of MASCHINE. For more information on the
Cue bus, see section

Loading Groups with Patterns

Every Group from the factory library includes a set of Patterns that illustrate possible uses of
that Group. Similarly, when you save a Group of your own to the Library for later use, all Pat-
terns you have created for that Group will be saved with the Group.
When browsing Groups, you can choose to load each Group with or without its Patterns. This is
done by clicking the + PATTERNS
+ PATTERNS button enabled: Groups will be loaded together with their Patterns. This al-
▪
lows you to use the Patterns you have saved with the Groups. Upon loading, all Patterns of
the focused Group will be replaced, and a Clip referencing the first Pattern will be created
in the selected Scene.
SELECT + its pad or to disable Prehear.
