On the MASCHINE MIKRO controller, do the following:
1. Select the desired Native Instruments or External Plug-in (see section 2.3.3, Navigating
Channel Properties, Plug-ins, and Parameter Pages in the Control Area).
2. Press NAV + the lit pad (indicating the selected Plug-in) to open the plug-in in a separate

6.3.2 Using the VST/AU Plug-in Parameters
The parameters of Native Instruments and External Plug-ins offer various ways to shape each

SCHINE also allows quick and convenient access to the parameters of any Native Instruments
or External Plug-in: upon loading these parameters are auto-mapped and organized into Param-
eter pages that will appear both in the software’s Control area and on your controller in Control
mode — exactly like Internal Plug-ins.
Having the Plug-in parameters on Parameter pages in MASCHINE has the following benefits:
