Using the Jog Wheel with the List and Tag Overlays
When your MASCHINE STUDIO controller is in Browse mode, you can also make use of the jog
wheel and FUNCTION buttons to navigate the Library (for all details, see the MASCHINE Man-
ual):
▪ Press the FUNCTION buttons to put the jog wheel’s focus on the desired field at the bot-
tom of the displays (the focused field is indicated by the surrounding brackets).
▪ Turn the jog wheel to change the value in the focused field. If the result field (last field on
the right) is focused, turning the jog wheel will navigate the result list, and pressing it will
load the selected item.
You can also use the jog wheel to interact with the list and tag overlays described above:
▪ When the jog wheel is focused on a field providing a list overlay (product category, bank,
and sub-bank) or tag overlay (type, sub-type, and mode), pressing and holding the jog
wheel opens that overlay. The overlay disappears as you release the jog wheel. If you turn
the jog wheel without pressing it, no overlay will show up and the value of the focused field
will be changed as in previous MASCHINE versions.
▪ When the jog wheel is focused on the product field (Knob 2), nothing happens when you
press it.
When the jog wheel is focused on the result field (default focus, Knob 8), turning the jog
wheel closes any displayed overlay.
3.2.8 Performing a Text Search
In the Search field you can enter your search query.
The Search field.
► Click in the Search field and type the desired text to limit the results to files containing
this text.
The search will be performed on the file paths, the file names, the products/banks/sub-banks,
the tags, and the properties directly as you type. If you want to search for a combination of two
words (e.g. “bass” and “analog”) just enter both words in the Search field with a space in be-
tween. As you start typing, the list of matches will start narrowing in the Result list below.
