MASCHINE Getting Started – 9
2.4 Activating MASCHINE
When you start the MASCHINE software for the first time, you will be asked to activate
MASCHINE using the Service Center. Please refer to the Service Center Quick Start Guide
for all information on that matter.
2.5 Connecting the MASCHINE Controller
Connecting the MASCHINE Controller to your computer is easy: plug the USB cable (in-
cluded in delivery) into the USB port on the back of the MASCHINE Controller, then connect
the cable’s other end to one of the USB-ports of your computer.
If you have any MIDI equipment such as synthesizers, keyboards, drum machines or sam-
plers, you may connect them to MASCHINEs MIDI In and MIDI Out ports.
On its rear panel, the MASCHINE Controller features a MIDI In and a MIDI Out port as well as a USB port that
connects it to your computer. Use the Kensington Lock slot to lock your MASCHINE controller to something
immobile and thus save it from being stolen.
!
If you want to connect the
MASCHINE Controller to a
USB-hub instead, make sure that the
hub has its own power supply – the
MASCHINE Controller will not work on a
passive (bus-powered) USB hub.
