Modules
MASCHINE contains four Module Slots on each of the three MASCHINE Project levels
Sound, Group, and Master. MASCHINE modules are the MASCHINE Sampler, VST/AU
Plug-in Instruments or FX, internal MASCHINE FX, as well as the external Input module
and the MIDI Out module.
Scenes
A Scene represents a combination of different Groups with their associated Patterns.
Scenes are used to chain patterns (known as Clips in the arrangement area) in order to
build up a finished arrangement, or to trigger different parts of a Song while you are play-
ing live.
Patterns
A Pattern is a sequence that plays Sounds from the current Group. A Pattern is therefore
usually linked to a Group since it is a part of the Group; however you can also save it inde-
pendently from the Group. This is useful if you want to try out different drum kits with the
same Pattern or different Sounds with a given melody.
Events
Events are the individual element that make up a pattern. In Step Editor mode these are
visually represented in the MASCHINE software by rectangles. In Piano Roll mode they are
represented by note information. Each event represents a musical note or a drum hit.
Effects (FX)
MASCHINE comes with many different effects that are called FX in MASCHINE terminolo-
gy. You may also use VST/AU plug-in effects too. Up to four effects can be directly applied
as insert effects to each Sound, Group or Master level. With the Routing System you can
also create send effects and multi-effects.
