The Channel Properties
Most of the features described here can be accessed via the
Channel properties
. Channel
properties are global settings that apply to a particular Sound, Group, or to the Master
independently of which Plug-ins are loaded in its Plug-in slots.
Channel properties are organized into four sets. Similar sets of properties are available for all
channels (Sounds, Groups, and Master):
Input properties
(unavailable for the Master),
Output
properties
,
Groove properties
, and
Macro properties
.
You can access Channel properties and their parameters via the same procedure as for Plug-ins.
Please refer to section
Navigating Channel Properties, Plug-ins, and Parameter Pages
detailed description.
The Input properties, Output properties, and Macro properties are covered in the following
sections. For more information on the Groove properties, please refer to section
13.1. Using MIDI Control
MASCHINE+ provides you with flexible MIDI remote control and host automation facilities that can
be used in many situations.
Incoming MIDI
The Master, Groups, and Sounds can be controlled via MIDI:
• By default, all MIDI data incoming on the enabled MIDI input port(s) will be received by the
focused Sound of the focused Group. See
to find information on how to enable/
disable MIDI input ports in MASCHINE+.
•
Triggering Sounds via MIDI notes
: By default, incoming MIDI notes will trigger the focused
Sound. You can change this default behavior and map incoming MIDI notes differently in order
to adapt MASCHINE+ to your requirements. The appropriate MIDI settings can be configured in
the
MIDI
page of the Input properties, both for individual Sounds and for entire Groups. These
are described in section
Triggering Sounds via MIDI Notes
.
