To add a new Tag, click on this entry and enter the Tag name with your computer keyboard.
The new Tag will then be available in that Tag category.
Editing Tags
It is also possible to edit the Tags that are on existing les in your Library. Just click on the
le you want to edit the Tags of in the Search Result List, click the Edit Button and select/
deselect Tags by checking/unchecking the respective checkmarks next to them.
Deleting Tags
To delete a Tag from the Tag Editor, right-click (on Mac OS® X: Control-click) on the Tag to
open the delete menu. It is possible to delete multiple Tags by selecting them in the Tag Filter
and then right-click (on Mac OS® X: Control-click) on the selection to open the delete menu.
3.3 Quick Browse
Quick Browse is a feature that allows you to quickly recall a search query you performed to get
to a given le. Let’s say you have loaded a Kick Sound after browsing the Library, then loaded
a Snare Sound to another Sound Slot and now you realize you are not satised with that Kick
Sound, but you heard a nice Kick Sound just before you chose the current one. Normally you
would now have to try to remember the name or the Tags you used to nd it, or browse all
Kick Sounds (given that the MASCHINE Library already has around 700 Kick Sounds, this
may take a considerable amount of time). With Quick Browse you can restore the query with
just one click. Quick Browse is available in the Sound Tab (for Sounds and Samples), in the
Group Tab (for Groups), in the Master Tab (for Projects), and the FX Tabs (for FX).
