Set Up Your Own Multi-effect Groups and Automate Them
You can setup multi-effect Groups containing all the effects you want to use in a live set. You
can find several multi-effects in the Library (check the Browser for the
you an idea of what works for you. To be able to quickly change and modulate the effect set-
tings, you can set automation for the multi-effect as Patterns from within the MASCHINE soft-
ware. By using Patterns for the multi-effect Group you could for example trigger a filter-sweep
or a wild modulated Beat Delay. See

Special Tricks
14.3.1
Changing Pattern Length for Variation
Try a short Pattern Length resolution like a quarter or eighth note and change the Pattern
Length in Pattern mode (see chapter
using Button 1 to create variations of a Pattern. If you select an even smaller value like 1/64th
you can create stuttering breaks and rolls.
14.3.2
Using Loops to Cycle Through Samples
You can use loops to cycle through Samples, creating glitches and stuttering breaks or interest-
ing soundscapes. Just enter the
LOOP MODE
and play with the Knobs for the start and end point of the loop. Use the
button to change the values in smaller increments. See
for more on this. Note: this technique requires that you choose either AHD or ADSR as the Am-
plitude Envelope in the Sampler's Parameter pages (see
14.3.3
Load Long Audio Files and Play with the Start Point
As you know you can adjust the start point of a Sample in the Sampler's Parameter pages (see
↑4.2, The Sampler
Module). If you load a long audio file, you can create interesting variations
by tweaking the start point.
