Performance Features

The Performance features of MASCHINE are inspired by similar features available in KOM-

PLETE KONTROL and on the KOMPLETE KONTROL S-SERIES keyboards. This tight integra-

tion offers a familiar and seamless workflow.

Overview of the Perform Features

The Perform features include the following engines:

▪ The Scale and Chords engine allows you to assign the pads to notes within specific scales,

and to play chords according to the selected scale by hitting single pads.

▪ The Arp engine allows you to create arpeggios based on the pads you press or the chord cur-

rently triggered.

Designed to enrich the melodic content of your Projects, these engines are available when your

pads are in Keyboard mode. Furthermore, they are designed to be used live and, as such, they

are available only from your hardware controller (like Note Repeat).

When your pads are in Group mode, you can use the Note Repeat engine, Choke groups, and

Link groups as in previous MASCHINE versions.
