2.3 Stand-alone and Plug-in Mode
You can run MASCHINE as a stand-alone application or integrate it into your favorite Digital
Audio Workstation (or DAW, in short) by loading it as a plug-in. MASCHINE is available in the
VST, Audio Unit and RTAS plug-in formats. For further information on plug-in compatibility
and for a detailed description of how to use plug-ins in your host, please refer to the docu-
mentation included with your host software. If you did not install the plug-ins when installing
the MASCHINE Software, learn how to do add them in chapter 1.5, “Installing MASCHINE.”
Differences between Stand-alone and Plug-in Mode
When you are using MASCHINE as a plug-in within a host application (i.e. sequencer soft-
ware like Cubase® or Pro Tools®), you can open multiple MASCHINE instances. Actually,
you can load as many instances of MASCHINE as your computer and your host application
can handle CPU-wise. In contrast to the stand-alone application, they are always synced to
the host. In plug-in mode you can also send a MIDIProgram Change message from your host
to switch between MASCHINE’s Scenes or record automation using the Macro Controls. To
learn more about these, have a look at chapter 10, ”Creating a Song using Scenes” and 5.1,
“The Group Source Tab Parameters.”
2.3.1 Switching Instances with the Hardware in Plug-in Mode
To switch from one instance to another in plug-in mode, press Shift and Step; using Knob 5
you can now select the desired instance and load it by hitting Button 8.
