► Click the INPUT selector to choose between the available inputs:
▪ If SOURCE is set to Ext. Ster., you can select either of MASCHINE’s four external stereo
inputs In 1–4.
▪ If SOURCE is set to Ext. Mono, you can select either of MASCHINE’s eight external mono
inputs: the left (“L”) or right (“R”) channel of each input pair In 1–4.
▪ If SOURCE is set to Internal, you can select the output of any available Group or the Mas-
ter.
You can easily record the output of a particular Sound by setting SOURCE to Internal,
soloing this Sound and selecting its parent Group in the INPUT selector!
You can also set SOURCE to Internal, choose as INPUT a Group with a drum kit loaded,
and record your live improvisations on the pads while playing this drum kit! You will
then have your own improvisations recorded as Samples, ready to be used, edited,
sliced, etc., as any other Samples in MASCHINE!
Choosing a Recording Mode
► Click the MODE selector to select from the two available recording modes:
▪ Sync: If Sync is selected, you can synchronize the recording function to the sequencer, so
that the recording starts in sync with the sequencer after you clicked Start. The recording
will start at the top of the next bar. The LENGTH control on the right allows you to choose
a length for the Sample to be recorded: either 1, 2, 4, 8, or 16 bars — or choose Free if
you don’t want to set any duration limit to the recording. At any time you can click Stop to
stop the recording before the duration defined by LENGTH has been reached — the record-
ing will then stop at the next bar.
▪ Detect: If Detect is selected, you can set a certain threshold using the THRESHOLD control
on the right. After you clicked Start, the input signal level exceeding this threshold will
start the recording. You can then manually stop the recording by clicking Stop. This is use-
ful to record a singer or an instrumentalist, for example. You can also adjust the threshold
by dragging the slider that appears on the horizontal input level meters above the RECORD-
ING section:
