automatically load the next time you start MASCHINE.
Recording Audio

not, your recordings will be saved in the generic Recordings
folder in your standard user directory (see section

Preferences – Default Page ).
MIDI
Clock Offset Depending on variables such as the speed of your CPU, your
audio interface, your MIDI interface and the
Latency value you
selected in the Audio and MIDI Settings panel, you may
experience a lack of synchronization between MASCHINE and
the external MIDI Master. To compensate, you can adjust this
Clock Offset value. An easy way to do that is to play a 4/4 kick
drum pattern or a metronome sound on both MASCHINE and
the external MIDI Master and mix them together moving the
slider until they are played at exactly the same time. As soon as
you can hear a flanger-like effect, you know you are close to the
correct Sync Offset value. Keep on adjusting the
Sync Offset
control until you can neither hear the flanging effect nor two
separate signals.
