13 Effect Reference
MASCHINE provides a healthy selection of more than 20 different Effect Plug-ins that can be
quickly applied to Sounds, Groups and the Master, all as insert effects. By using MASCHINE’s
powerful routing system, it is also easy to setup send effects, build complex effect chains or
apply an effect to an external source that is connected to your audio interface, such as an in-
strument, vocals or a turntable. We recommend you load a Project from the factory library to
get to know how effects can be used.
This chapter will describe the effects and their parameters. Fore more information on how to
use effects within your Project, please read chapter
