Native Instruments MASCHINE MK3 Getting Started

3. In the Record tab, select your SOURCE at the bottom of the page. You can record Sam-
ples from an internal signal (select Internal from the drop-down menu) or from one of the
external inputs (select the Ext. Ster. or Ext. Mono from the drop-down menu). In this case
we will record from the drum kit Group “EK-TL A Kit,” so click Internal in the SOURCE
menu:
4. Click EK-TL A Kit in the INPUT menu nearby:
5. Next to the INPUT menu is the MODE switch. Use this to select a way to start the record-

with the Project tempo. Since we want to record a drum loop from the EK-TL A Kit, we
select Sync.
