Native Instruments MASCHINE MK3 User Manual

7.3 Using Gate Mode
Gate mode is used to chop and pitch selected parts of your audio by applying MIDI note events
in the Keyboard view of the Pattern Editor or by recording them using your controller. Each
event is a gate for the audio; the length determines the duration of playback, and placement
on the scale determines the pitch. By chopping and pitching the loop you can create melodies
or even use it for effect on drums.
In Keyboard view MIDI note events are visually layered on top of the audio waveform and can
be edited or deleted at any time, and more importantly, the audio can be changed at any time
while retaining the MIDI note events in the Pattern, meaning you can keep the phrasing and
melody but use different audio for the playback.
