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 ↑3.2, 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 ↑3.8,
Using Quick Browse for more information on this.
▪ For all details on the parameters for each MASCHINE effect, please refer to chapter ↑13,
Effect Reference.
▪ For additional, specific information on VST/AU plug-ins, please read ↑6.2.6, Page 6: Veloc-
ity / Modwheel.
▪ If you created a nice effect setting, you can put it to further use by saving it as a Plug-in
preset. Please read ↑6.1.9, Saving and Recalling Plug-in Presets for more details.
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 section ↑9.2.1, Displaying Groups vs. Displaying Sounds for more in-
formation.
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:
