Native Instruments Maschine User Manual

2.6.8 Controller Menu in the Hardware Page of the Preferences Panel
In previous MASCHINE versions you could have only one device focused on a particular MA-
SCHINE instance, and the Hardware page of the Preferences panel showed the settings for
that particular controller. With the integration of the KOMPLETE KONTROL S-SERIES key-
boards in MASCHINE 2.2, you can have two devices simultaneously focused on a MASCHINE
instance: a controller from the MASCHINE family and a KOMPLETE KONTROL S-SERIES key-
board.
For this reason, the Hardware page of the Preferences panel provides you with a new Controller
menu at the top allowing you to select the device of which you want to see and modify the set-
tings:
The Controller menu allows you to display the settings for the desired device.
This menu can hold up to two entries, depending on the device(s) focused on that MASCHINE
instance:
▪ No device focused on that instance: The Controller menu is empty and all settings in the
Hardware page are grayed out and inactive. To modify the settings of a device from that
MASCHINE instance, the device must be connected to your computer and focused on that
instance.
