Modulation Automation
Source of control Internal (e.g., changes
recorded via Auto-write)
External (e.g., an external
MIDI sequencer or an
automation track in your host)
Duration of the change Temporary (until the end of
the Clip)
Permanent
Target parameters At the Sound and Group
levels only
At all levels (Sound, Group,
and Master)
Nature of the change
(continuous parameters only)
Relative (defines a deviation
to the non-modulated value)
Absolute (defines a new value
regardless of the non-
automated value)
This section describes how to use automation in MASCHINE — for more information on using
modulation, please refer to section ↑7.5, Recording and Editing Modulation.
Please note that modulation and automation are not mutually exclusive: You can modulate a
parameter in MASCHINE and automate it (e.g., from your host) simultaneously! As a result,
the parameter value will deviate (according to the recorded modulation) from its moving value
defined by the automation.
Using the Automation Pane in the Assignment Area
MIDI and host control can be configured in the Automation pane of the Assignment area:
