The Browser is the front end for accessing all the elements of your MASCHINE Projects:
Projects, Groups, Sounds, Samples, Patterns, Instruments and FX Presets. Each of these
can be stored and “tagged”, and categorized in a way that allows you easy access to all of
them. MASCHINE's Factory Library is already completely tagged, and you can also import
your own Samples to the Library and tag them as well.
Projects
A Project contains all data needed for a Song: up to eight Groups with their Patterns, 64
Scenes and all settings, automation, FX, Routings, Sounds and Samples. It’s like a snap-
shot of the entire state of MASCHINE.
Sounds
A sound can hold up to 4 modules which can be a Sampler, VST/AU Plug-in Instruments
or FX, internal MASCHINE FX, as well as an external Input, or a MIDI Out module. Each
Sound of the selected Group is mapped to one of the 16 pads on the MASCHINE control-
ler, so you can play the Sounds by pressing the pads.
Groups
A Group contains 16 Sound Slots, each of which can hold one Sound. In addition to the
effects applied to an individual Sound, a Group can have up to 4 Insert FX. These affect
all the Sounds in the Group. A Group can also contain up to 64 Patterns assigned from
one of the four Pattern Banks.
Master
This is where all audio signals from each of the Groups and Sounds come together and get
mixed. The Master bus can also host up to four Insert FX of its own, these effect are ap-
plied to all Groups and the Sounds within them.
