Native Instruments MASCHINE MK3 Groove Production Studio (Black) - Manual (Page 44)

▪ Note Repeat can also come in handy to quickly record a regular beat when creating Pat-
terns.
▪ Note Repeat is also interesting to use with tonal Sounds and you can access it from Key-
board mode to create synthesizer-like arpeggios.
Note Repeat can only be enabled using the controller.
1. Check that your Pattern is playing — if not, press PLAY to start the sequencer.
2. Hold the NOTE REPEAT button.
3. While holding NOTE REPEAT , hold any pad.
The Sound of the pad is repeatedly triggered at the rate shown at the bottom of the con-
troller’s display.
4. While holding NOTE REPEAT , press Button 5, 6, 7 or 8 above the right display to select
another repetition rate.
→ This is a handy way to add live ornaments to your Pattern!
Of course you can also use Note Repeat to program your Pattern (e.g., recording a continuous hi-
hat).
3.5 Saving Your Project
A drum groove is an ideal starting point for the creation of a song. All the instruments you re-
cord afterwards will be based on the feeling of that rhythm. Before you get to adding new ele-
ments and editing your Pattern, you should save your work right away.
