3. Press REC again to stop recording.

To stop the sequencer, press STOP or press PLAY again.
Quick Edits on Your Pattern
At any time, you can undo your last recording by pressing SHIFT + pad 1 (Undo), whether you
are currently recording or not. You can redo it by pressing SHIFT + pad 2 (Redo).
The undo and redo commands are global in MASCHINE: Almost any action in MA-
SCHINE can be undone/redone.
At any time, you can enrich your Pattern by activating PLAY and REC again, and playing the
pads. This way, you can progressively build up a complex Pattern step by step.
3.4 Playing with Your Pattern
Now that you have a nice Pattern, let’s introduce a few powerful tools for playing your Pattern
live.
3.4.1 Using Solo and Mute
Mute can be used to bypass a Sound or Group, whereas Solo is the opposite: Solo will mute all
other Sounds in the Group, or all other Groups in the Project, so a selected Sound, or Group
can be heard alone. The combination of both is a useful means to play live and to test differ-
ent sequences together.
When used on Sounds, the Solo only applies to the current Group: The Sounds in other Groups
will not be affected.
