Notes and Hints on Loading Effects in the Software
▪ Instead of clicking the “+” icon to load the effect in a new slot, you can also click the
down-pointing arrow on the right of an existing slot to open the Plug-in menu: The effect
selected in the menu will replace the Plug-in currently loaded in that slot.
▪ Instead of using the Plug-in menu, you can also use the Browser to load a particular preset
for an effect. In particular, this can come in handy to insert a new effect between two ex-
isting Plug-ins in the Plug-in List. Please refer to section ↑4.2, Searching and Loading
Files from the Library for more information. Alternatively you can use Quick Browse to re-
call the search query that was used to load a particular Plug-in preset — see section ↑4.8,
Using Quick Browse for more information on this.
▪ For all details on the parameters for each MASCHINE effect, please refer to chapter ↑15,
Effect Reference.
▪ For additional, specific information on VST/AU plug-ins, see ↑7.3, Using Native Instru-
ments and External Plug-ins.
▪ If you created a nice effect setting, you can put it to further use by saving it as a Plug-in
preset. For more details, see ↑7.1.9, Saving and Recalling Plug-in Presets.
Adding an Effect in Mix View
You can also load effects in Mix view. The procedure is quite similar to the one described
above for the Arrange view.
Reminder: To switch the Mixer display between all Groups of your Project and all Sound slots in a
particular Group, double-click the background of any Group header at the top of the Mixer. See sec-
tion ↑13.2.1, Displaying Groups vs. Displaying Sounds for more information.
First, display the Plug-in List in Mix view:
1. Click the Mix View button (showing three little faders) at the left of the Arranger to switch
from Arrange view to Mix view:
