Transport in MASCHINE Running as a Standalone Application
If your keyboard is focused on a MASCHINE instance running as a standalone application and
no KOMPLETE KONTROL instance is loaded in any host application, all six buttons in the
TRANSPORT
section of your keyboard control the transport in MASCHINE.
If a host application with at least one KOMPLETE KONTROL instance loaded is also
running on your computer, the
TRANSPORT
section on your keyboard will control the
host transport instead of the MASCHINE transport. If the running host application
doesn’t contain any KOMPLETE KONTROL instance, the
TRANSPORT
section on your
keyboard will control both the MASCHINE and host transports. To avoid this, you can
disable the control of the MASCHINE transport in the
Preferences
panel, as described at
the end of this section.
In some cases they are used in combination with the Control encoder and the Navigate Left/
Right buttons in the
NAVIGATE
section (see table below). At any time the button states are
synchronized with the MASCHINE software (and with any MASCHINE controller also focused
on that MASCHINE instance).
More precisely, the buttons of the
TRANSPORT
section trigger the following commands in the
MASCHINE instance:
