3.4 The Browser on the Hardware
In contrast to the Software, the Browser on the Hardware can only load les that have already
been added to the Library. You cannot directly access specic directories on your hard drives
with the Browser on the Hardware. This is why you should always tag all your Samples and
import them to the Library using the Software beforehand.
To enter the Browser on the MASCHINE Controller, press BROWSE.
The Browser on the hardware displays with the Sound Tab in focus
Filter
Dial Knob 1 to select a le type you are looking for. Depending on which of the Buttons 2-4
are selected (the picture above shows the Browser with Button 4, i.e. the Sound Tab selected),
the Filter will allow you to select compatible le types only.
