Adjusting the count-in duration – Native Instruments MASCHINE MK3 Groove Production Studio (Black) User Manual

Page 507

▪

After the count-in phase, the recording starts in Overdub mode (see

). The metronome turns off if it was off before the Count-in, otherwise it

stays on.

You can adjust the metronome’s volume, time signature, and downbeat/upbeat sounds. See section

If the current Loop Range does not start at the beginning of a bar (i.e. on a downbeat), the

count-in phase will start with a downbeat, count the selected duration (1, 2 or 4 bars), and

then add the offset between the beginning of the bar in which the beginning of the Loop

Range is placed and the actual beginning of the Loop Range:

Count-in when the Loop Range starts at the beginning of a bar…

…and when the Loop Range doesn’t start at the beginning of a bar.

You can also use the Count-in to start a recording in Replace mode.

Adjusting the Count-in Duration

You can choose how long the metronome should be heard before the recording actually starts.

In the software this is done via the

Count-in Length

setting in the

General

page of the

Prefer-

ences

panel. Available values are 1 bar, 2 bars, and 4 bars. See section

for more details on the Count-in and metronome settings available in the

Prefer-

ences

panel.
