When Autoload is enabled, any item that you select in the Result list of the

Library

pane or

Files

pane is automatically loaded into the focused Group or Sound slot or into the selected

Plug-in slot, replacing any content currently in that location. This allows you to listen to this
item in context with the rest of your Project while it is playing.

Autoload is not available when browsing Projects.

Autoload is not available when browsing Samples with Prehear enabled — see section

tioning Samples

.

Autoload is not only useful to look for an appropriate Sound, Group, Plug-in preset or Sample, but
can also be very inspiring: With a Pattern playing, browse through your Library with Autoload acti-

vated and listen to Sounds and Samples you normally would not use in that context.

4.3.2

Auditioning Instrument Presets

When you are browsing Instrument presets, a Prehear button and Prehear Volume slider appear

next to the Autoload button.

The Prehear controls.

Click the Prehear button (showing a little speaker icon) to enable/disable Prehear.

When Prehear is enabled, you can directly hear Instrument presets as you select them in the

Result list of the

Library

pane or

Files

pane.

Drag the Prehear Volume slider next to the Prehear button to adjust the volume of the In-
strument presets you are pre-listening to.

The Prehear signal is sent to the Cue bus of MASCHINE. This allows you to pre-listen to Instru-
ment presets on a distinct output pair (e.g., in your headphones) without affecting MA-
SCHINE’s main output. For more information on the Cue bus, see section

13.2.6, Using the

Cue Bus
