Press Button 2 to enter Piano Roll/Keyboard Mode. If you hit the Pads now, you will hear
that they all play the same Sound, but with a different pitch each. The pitch scale is divided
in semitones, starting with Pad 1 as the lowest note going up to Pad 16 as the highest note.
To navigate to another octave use Button 7 (octave down) or Button 8 (octave up). You can
also navigate the scale in semitones: use Button 5 (semitone down) and Button 6 (semitone
up). Press PLAY then RECORD and start to record your melody!

Try to experiment with all kinds of Samples in the Piano Roll/Keyboard Mode; some rather
boring sounding Samples can be really interesting if you play them very low or very high!
If you prefer to play your melodies with a MIDI keyboard, you can connect one to the MIDI In
on the back of the MASCHINE Controller. You can also use any USB-MIDI keyboard selected
in the Audio and MIDI Settings (see chapter
,” to get to know
how to set these up). The connected MIDI input device will always play the currently selected
Sound without the need to enter Piano Roll/Keyboard mode.
