Welcome to MASCHINE!
Manual Conventions
Naming Convention
Throughout the documentation we will refer to MASCHINE controller (or just controller) as the
hardware 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 MA-
SCHINE software and hardware. These terms have the same meaning.
Unlabeled Buttons and Knobs
The buttons and knobs above and below the displays on your MASCHINE controller do not
have labels (all other elements on the controller do).
The unlabeled buttons and knobs on the MASCHINE controller.
For better reference, we applied a special formatting here: throughout the document, the ele-
ments are capitalized and numbered, so the buttons are written Button (1–8), while the knobs
are written Knob (1–8). E.g., whenever you see an instruction such as "Press Button 2 to open
the EDIT page," you'll know it's the second button from the left above the displays.
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.
