Using Loop Mode - Native Instruments MASCHINE MK3 Manual

Using the Audio Plug-in

Using Loop Mode

7.2 Using Loop Mode
Loop mode is the default mode for the Audio plug-in and is used to playback audio in time
with your Project. When loaded into a Sound, audio appears as a waveform in the Pattern Edi-
tor and is repeated for the entirety of the Pattern. A detailed overview of the audio waveform is
displayed in Keyboard view.
When the Pattern Length is decreased audio is trimmed causing the beginning of the audio
waveform to repeat. By lengthening the Pattern Length beyond the length of the waveform will
cause the whole audio waveform to loop, and repeated parts of the waveform to appear as
transparent 'ghost' copies. For more information on changing the Pattern Length, refer to the
section ↑10.1.6, Adjusting the Arrange Grid and the Pattern Length.
The process of using Loop mode is as follows; load an audio loop onto a Sound, select Loop
mode from the control panel of the Audio plug-in.
