Adding Folders to the User Library
In the User pane of the Library page, you can add other folders to the user content of your MA-
SCHINE Library. To do this:
1. Click Add at the bottom of the pane.
A folder selection dialog opens up.
2. In the dialog, navigate to the desired folder on your computer and click OK (Choose on
Mac OS X).
→
All MASCHINE-compatible files found in the selected folder are added to your user con-
tent in MASCHINE.
Furthermore, the imported files will have their attributes (product/bank/sub-bank, Type/Sub-
Type/Mode tags, as well as properties) set as follows:
â–ª For all file types, any attributes already in the files will be retained.
â–ª For Samples, if the product/bank/sub-bank attributes are empty, they will be set to the
folders in which the Samples are located:
â—¦ The product will be set to the name of the folder you have selected.
â—¦ If Samples reside in a subfolder of this folder, the subfolder name will be used as
bank.
â—¦ If Samples reside in a subfolder of this subfolder, the name of the lower subfolder will
be used as sub-bank.
By adding a folder to the user content of your MASCHINE Library, you make their files availa-
ble in the Browser’s LIBRARY pane for quick searching and loading! For more information on
how to use the LIBRARY pane of the Browser, please refer to section ↑3.2, Searching and
Loading Files from the Library.
Paths to folders added via the IMPORT button in the Browser’s FILES pane will also
show up here. The only difference between adding folders via the Add button in Prefer-
ences panel, described here, and via the IMPORT button in the FILES pane of the
Browser is that the latter allows you to directly tag the files as they are imported. See
section ↑3.6.5, Using the Result List for more information on how to import folders via
the FILES pane.
