→ The TEMPO button lights up. You can now adjust the tempo for your overall Project, for
each Group, and for each Sound individually using the Encoder:
▪ To adjust the overall tempo, turn the Encoder. Hold SHIFT to adjust the value in finer in-
crements.
As you adjust the tempo, the display indicates the current value.
It is recommended you try this while your Pattern is playing, you will immediately hear the effect of
your changes.
When you are done with your volume, swing, and tempo changes, press the lit VOLUME,
SWING, or TEMPO button to deactivate it.
3.3.2 Undo/Redo
Undoing and re-doing your last actions can be useful to cancel operations you have performed
or to compare two versions before and after a change. You can undo nearly everything you did
after loading or creating your Project.
Note: If you save your Project, you will no longer be able to undo or redo any actions performed be-
fore saving!
MASCHINE provides two different undo/redo features, each of them being suited for specific
situations:
▪ Step Undo allows you to cancel your last single action.
▪ Take Undo allows you to cancel your last group of actions.
Step Undo
Step Undo/Redo is the classic undo/redo found in most applications. It cancels or re-executes
each single action you have performed.
In the software use the following keyboard shortcuts for the Step Undo and Step Redo func-
tions:
