10.2 Recording Patterns in Real Time
 
This section describes  the various ways,  features,  and aids available  on your controller  to re-
cord Patterns as you play them in real time:
▪ The most  common  method is  called  overdub recording.  Alternatively  you can  use  replace
recording. Both are described in section ↑10.2.1, Recording Your Patterns Live.
▪ Right before you record a new Pattern, you can quickly enter Record Prepare mode to ad-
just a few important settings for your Pattern: ↑10.2.2, The Record Prepare Mode.
▪ At any time you can enable and customize the metronome: ↑10.2.3, Using the Metronome.
▪ You can also start the recording with a count-in: ↑10.2.4, Recording with Count-in.
▪ While recording you can let MASCHINE automatically quantize what you play on the pads:
↑10.2.5, Quantizing while Recording.
10.2.1 Recording Your Patterns Live
 
In  Control  mode  your  controller  provides  many  tools  to  live  record  Patterns  for  the  focused
Group.
Take your time to set up the pad sensitivity and velocity scaling to your personal taste —
you will  have even more  fun playing and  recording  with your  controller!  These settings
can  be  found  in  Preferences  >  Hardware  >  Pads.  See  ↑2.6.6,  Preferences  –  Plug-ins
Page for more information.
Overdub Mode
Overdub  mode  is  the  most  usual  recording  mode.  In  this  mode  all  pad  hits  are  added  as
events/notes, no matter if the Pattern already contains events.
