7.2.2.1 Using Note Repeat
Note Repeat is a really handy way to play and program beats: it plays the selected Sound or
note repeatedly at a given rate. You just need to hold a click-pad and its Sound/note will be
steadily repeated until you release it.
▪ Note Repeat is a way to play percussion and drums live creating build-ups and breaks.
▪ Note Repeat can also come in handy to quickly record a regular beat when creating Pat-
terns.
General Notes on Note Repeat
▪ Note Repeat accepts live input from the click-pads (1–16) of your controller only.
▪ The output of the Note Repeat is recorded into the Pattern Editor.
▪ The Note Repeat cannot be modulated nor automated in MASCHINE.
▪ You can use Note Repeat even if the transport is not running: In this case the Note Repeat
engine will use its own central clock. This clock will be reset as soon as you start the play-
back.
To use Note Repeat:
1. Press the NOTE REPEAT button.
→ MASCHINE JAM will automatically switch to Pad Mode and the Sounds within the select-
ed Group illuminate.
