Right-click ([Ctrl]-click on macOS) the desired Group in the Group List or the Group name

in the top left corner of the Pattern Editor and select

Color

from the context menu.

A Color Palette appears. In the Palette, the current color of the Group is highlighted.

Select the desired color in the Palette. You can also choose to set the Group back to the
default color corresponding to its position in the list by selecting

Default

in the Color Pa-

lette.

The Group buttons of the MASCHINE MK3, MASCHINE STUDIO, MASCHINE MK2 con-
trollers, and the pads of the MASCHINE MIKRO MK3, MASCHINE MIKRO MK2 controller
(when you hold the

GROUP

button) mirror the Group colors you have selected.

By default each Group has a different color. But you can choose a common default color for Groups

in

Preferences > Colors > Group Default

. See section

3.7.8, Preferences – Colors Page

for more

information.

Once you have set a custom color for a Group as described above, the Group will retain its color

when you move it in the Group List, and the color will be stored with the Group when you save the
Group for later use. Note that you can select the same color as the one used by default: In that case

the color (even unchanged) will be considered as a custom color and will follow the Group as you
move it.
