Module Slots

Module Slot 1 containing Native Instruments KONTAKT.

MASCHINE contains four Module Slots on each of the three MASCHINE Project levels

Sound, Group, and Master. Apart from hosting Samplers and MASCHINE effects, Module

Slots can host instrument and effect type plug-ins in the following combination:

▪ Module Slot 1 can host either an effect or an instrument plug-in.

▪ Module Slots 2, 3, and 4 can host effect plug-ins only.

See the following section for further explanation.

4.5.2

There are four Source options available from a Module Slot 1's drop-down menu: Sampler,

Input,

MIDI

Out, and Plug-ins:

▪ Sampler: allows the selected Slot to play back Samples. This is the most common

Source type, as adding a Sample to the Sound Slot will automatically set the Module

Source to Sampler.

▪ Input: this allows the selected Sound Slot to be available as a bussing point for exter-

nal Inputs.

▪ MIDI Out: allows you to use a Sound to send MIDI notes to your host application or

your external MIDI equipment.

▪ Plug-ins: allows the use of VST/AU plug-ins from Native Instruments and third-party

manufacturers.

If you use the MIDI Out Module in Slot 1, Slots 2-4 will not be effective.
