Native Instruments MASCHINE MK3 Getting Started

The Section slot is removed. Sections to the right of the removed Section are shifted one slot
to the left to fill the gap.
10.3 Selecting a Loop Range
We already learned how to select a Section by clicking its Section slot in the software’s Arrang-
er or by pressing SCENE + the desired pad on your controller (see Adding other Sections). A
single selected Section is always looping automatically.
But MASCHINE also allows you to select several consecutive Sections and play them one after
the other in a loop. Here's how to select the desired range of Sections.
10.3.1 Selecting a Loop Range in the MASCHINE Software
The Arranger provides a timeline located above the slot labels that always show the current
loop range:
The Arranger timeline showing that the Section 2 is looped.
To select another loop range:
1. In the Arranger timeline, click the end column of the start Section and hold the mouse
button.
2. Drag horizontally onto the column of the end Section and release the mouse button.
→ The start and end Sections along with all Sections in-between are played one after the
other in a loop. The Arranger timeline indicates the new loop range.
