▪ Click a Plug-in name to select it. If this Plug-in is currently hidden in the Plug-in Strip un-
derneath, it automatically scrolls to show the interface of that Plug-in.
▪ Click the little “+” icon at the end of the chain and select a Plug-in in the Plug-in menu to
load it at the end of the chain, or right-click (Mac OS X: [Ctrl]-click) a Plug-in name to re-
place this Plug-in with another one. See section ↑6.1.3, Loading, Removing, and Replacing
a Plug-in for more information.
▪ Click the little square on the left of a Plug-in name to bypass this Plug-in slot (bypassed
slots are grayed out). Click the little square again to unmute the Plug-in slot and insert the
Plug-in back into the processing chain. See section ↑6.1.5, Bypassing Plug-in Slots for
more information.
▪ Right-click (Mac OS X: [Ctrl]-click) a Plug-in name and use the Open…, Save As…, and
Save As Default… (Native Instruments and External Plug-ins only) commands to manage
your Plug-in presets. See section ↑6.1.9, Saving and Recalling Plug-in Presets and ↑6.3.4,
Using VST/AU Plug-in Presets for more information.
You cannot move Plug-ins within the Plug-in Chain. To do this, use for example the
Plug-in List in the channels of the Mixer above (see the Plug-in List description in sec-
tion ↑9.2.5, Adjusting Settings in the Channel Strips).
9.4 The Plug-in Strip
In the lower part of the MASCHINE window, the Mix view provides an intuitive representation
of all Plug-ins loaded in the channel (Sound, Group, or Master) currently under focus: the Plug-
in Strip. The Plug-in Strip shows the loaded Plug-ins as a series of Plug-in panels, each Plug-in
having its own panel.
As in the little Plug-in Chain above, the Plug-ins are arranged into an horizontal series, the au-
dio travelling from left to right through each Plug-in of that channel.
