MASCHINE 1.5 Reference Manual – 13
1 Introduction
1.1 Welcome to MASCHINE!
Thank you for buying MASCHINE!
MASCHINE is a groove production studio that implements the familiar working style of clas-
sical groove boxes along with the advantages of a computer based system. MASCHINE is
ideal for making music live, as well as in the studio. It’s the hands-on aspect of a dedicated
instrument, the MASCHINE Controller, united with the advanced editing features of the
MASCHINE software.
Creating beats is often not very intuitive with a computer, but using the MASCHINE Controller
to do it makes it easy and fun. You can tap in freely with the Pads or use Note Repeat to jam
along. Alternatively, build your beats using the Step Sequencer just as in classic drum machines.
Patterns can be intuitively combined and rearranged on the y to form larger ideas. You can
try out several different versions of a song without ever having to stop the music.
Since you can integrate it into any sequencer that supports VST, Audio Units, or RTAS plug-ins,
you can reap the benets in almost any software setup, or use it as a standalone application.
You can sample your own material, slice loops and rearrange them easily.
However, MASCHINE is a lot more than an ordinary groove box or sampler: it comes with an
inspiring 5 Gigabyte library containing over 250 kits and 14,000 samples, and a sophisticated,
yet easy to use tag-based Browser to give you instant access to the sounds you are looking for.
What’s more, MASCHINE give you lots of options for manipulating your sounds via internal
effects and other sound-shaping possibilities. You can also control external MIDI hardware
and 3rd party software with the MASCHINE Controller, while customizing the functions of
the Pads, Knobs and Buttons according to your needs utilizing the included Controller Editor
Application. This applies for the plug-in as well as the standalone version.
We hope you enjoy this fantastic gear as much as we do. Now let’s get going!
