Glossary
Library
MASCHINE includes a huge factory library of Samples, Sounds, Module presets, Patterns,
Groups, and Projects. Of course, you can further extend it with your own files.
Macro Control
Each Group provides a page of eight Macro Controls to which you can assign any continuous
parameters (i.e. controlled by a rotary knob) from that Group or any of its Sounds. This way you
can define for each Group a set of eight parameters that are quickly accessible. Furthermore,
Macro Controls can be assigned to MIDI CCs to be controlled by an external MIDI controller or
application. Last but not least, if you use MASCHINE as plug-in in a host, Macro Controls are
available for automation in your host too.
Master
The Master is where all audio signals from each of the Groups and Sounds come together and
get mixed. The Master bus can also have up to four insert effects loaded in its Module slots.
These effects are applied to all Groups and the Sounds within them.
Module
Modules can be sound sources or effects, and internal or external (VST/AU plug-ins). The
Sound slots, the Group slots and the Master provide four Module slots each for loading Mod-
ules.
Module Preset
You can load various types of Modules in the Modules slots available at the Sound, Group, and
Master level. You can save the current settings of any Module in form of a Module preset for
later use. Notably, this will make the Module preset available in the MASCHINE Browser.
Mute and Solo
Muting allows you to bypass a Sound or a Group, whereas Soloing is pretty much the opposite:
It mutes all other Sounds or Groups so that only the soloed Sound or Group is played. The
combination of muting and soloing is a useful means both to play live and to test different se-
quences together.
