MASCHINE Project Overview

A MASCHINE Project contains all the information stored with a MASCHINE-produced piece of

music.

The Project references all the sound content: the instruments, sounds and samples, and all
the effects that you apply to them.

The Project also contains the arrangement of your song: how Patterns are built from events
which trigger Sounds, and how they are arranged into a song structure using Scenes and

Sections.

The following section will explain these two aspects in detail.

2.1.1

Sound Content
