Native Instruments Maschine Getting Started Guide

The controller mode buttons on the MASCHINE controller.
These buttons represent different MASCHINE MIKRO controller modes, e.g., when press-
ing the PAD MODE button, the displays will show pad-specific control options. When re-
leased, the controller switches back to standard controller mode.
You can also lock controller modes, so the controller doesn't switch back when releasing a
mode button:
1. Press and hold a controller mode button (e.g., PAD MODE).
2. Press Button 1 above the left display.
