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
