Pattern Mode

The Pattern mode is where you select your Patterns, change their length, remove Patterns or
double their content. Each Group can have up to 64 Patterns organized into 4 banks. To enter
Pattern mode on your MASCHINE hardware controller, press
Button 1 at the same time).
The hardware displays in Pattern mode.
Selecting a Pattern
On the right display, you will see all available Patterns of a Pattern Bank. To select a Pattern,
press the pad corresponding to the desired Pattern. To switch between the four Pattern Banks,
use Button 5 (for Bank A), Button 6 (for Bank B), Button 7 (for Bank C) or Button 8 (for Bank
D).
Doubling a Pattern
If you want to double your Pattern length as well as its content, you can do so by pressing But-
ton 2 in Pattern mode. Keep in mind that doubling a Pattern twice results in a Pattern that is
four times as long.
