15 Working with the Arranger
The Arranger is the big area located in the upper part of the MASCHINE window, right under
the Header.
The MASCHINE Arranger has two different views: Ideas view and Arranger view which are also
reflected on your controller. Each view has a specific purpose in the workflow of creating a
song, but essentially they represent the same content. The Ideas view allows you to experiment
with your musical ideas without being tied to a timeline or any kind of arrangement. Here you
can create Patterns for each Group and combine them into a Scene.
Alternatively, the Arranger view allows you to structure your song by allowing you to assign the
Scenes you created in the Ideas view to Sections on the Timeline, and move them around to
quickly create a larger musical structure.
