Saving your Work for the First Time on the Controller
1. To save your modifications to the Project, press SHIFT + FILE ( Save ).
⇨ A message will appear on your controller that asks you to look at the MASCHINE software.
Since our current Project was not saved yet, MASCHINE asks you to name it before sav-
ing. For this, you need to get back to your computer. A
Save Project As dialog opened and
is waiting for your input.

Pressing the FILE button opens the File mode with additional options for managing your Project files
directly from your controller: start a new Project, save a copy of the current Project, save the Project
under a new name, or load a Project from the list of Projects opened recently. For more information,
please refer to the MASCHINE Manual available from the Help menu.
