Monitoring the Input Signal
Visually controlling the input signal.
The level meters above the
RECORDING
section show you at any time the level of the selected
audio source. For example, this can come in handy to adjust the appropriate threshold in De-
tect mode. For this purpose, in Detect mode the level meters additionally provide a fader ad-
justing the threshold level, this fader is a strict equivalent to the
THRESHOLD
control descri-
bed above. This way, you can easily visualize when the input signal exceeds the current thresh-
old (and hence, when it would start the recording) and adjust that threshold accordingly.
Monitoring the input signal.
Furthermore, if you have selected an external signal (
Ext. Ster.
or
Ext. Mono
selected in
SOURCE
), an additional
MONITOR
section appears on the right. In this section, activate the
MONITOR
button to send the input signal to the Cue bus of MASCHINE, allowing you to hear
on a separate channel (e.g., your headphones) the audio source that is about to be recorded.
For more information on how to use the Cue bus, please refer to section
