MASCHINE Getting Started – 52
7. Sampling
MASCHINE allows you to record internal or external audio signals using your soundcard.
This is a useful feature if you want to record your own Samples or rearrange Loops that
you have created yourself using MASCHINE.
Hardware
Choose an empty Sound Slot to record into by selecting it with its Pad.
Now hit the Sampling Button to enter the Sampling Mode:
The Record Pages on the Hardware Displays

You can choose the Source by using Rotary Encoder 1: it is either set to “External” for
audio signals connected to your audio interface, or “Internal” for audio signals from
MASCHINE itself (either from another Group, Sound or from the Master Output).
3.
In this case we record from the Group called 909 Kit, so dial Rotary Encoder 1 to
select Internal followed by dialing Rotary Encoder 2 to select the 909 Kit Group.
4.
There are two different ways to start a recording:
You can set a certain Threshold value, and the input signal level exceeding this
Threshold will start the recording.
You can synchronize the recording function to the sequencer by selecting the Sync
option, so that recording starts as soon as you start the sequencer.
Since we want to record a drumloop, we choose Sync by dialing Rotary Encoder 3,
and then define a length of 1 bar by turning Rotary Encoder 4.
5.
Now hit Button 5 (Start) and, since the recording is going to be triggered by the se-
quencer, press Play.
