MASCHINE 1.5 Reference Manual – 92
5.1.3 Page 3: Macro Controls
Macro Controls enable you to control selected parameters using eight Knobs per Group.
This is useful for playing live since you can choose a set of parameters to manipulate on
one screen without having to switch screens, but also allows you to automate MASCHINE
parameters using the host automation of your DAW. Please refer to the manual of your DAW
software for more information on that. In addition to that, Macro Controls also allow you to
control MASCHINE parameters through external MIDI Controllers using MIDI CCs. Finally
you can record them as automation in a Pattern (for more information on that, see section
6.1.8, ”Recording automation,” for the Hardware and section 7.2.5, ”Recording and editing
automation,” for the Software).

Assigning a Parameter to a Macro Control
The Macro Controls are assigned using the MASCHINE Software. Each Macro Control can
be assigned to one destination with the full range of the selected parameter. Macro Controls
are bipolar Knobs with a range of -100% to +100% (0% is centre). The value is being sent to
the destination as internal modulation and can be recorded as such. It is possible to assign
any modulatable parameters in the Group’s Source, FX1, FX2 and Output Tabs as well as any
modulatable parameter on any Sound inside the Group.
