This document will guide you through the basic steps of connecting the MASCHINE hardware,
and basic adjustments of the audio and MIDI settings. We recommend that you take the time
to read this guide in its entirety.
This guide covers MASCHINE MK3 only and it will be referred to generically as the "MA-
SCHINE controller" unless there are specific differences. The MASCHINE software is re-
ferred to as the "MASCHINE software" for brevity.

It is important you read and understand the following instructions to make sure the MA-
SCHINE controller or any device connected will not be damaged during usage or maintenance:
▪

▪
Do not expose the MASCHINE controller to rain, use it near water or in damp or wet condi-
tions.

SCHINE controller, use a soft, dry cloth. Never use paint thinners, solvents, cleaning flu-
ids, or chemical-infused wiping cloths.
▪
Never use or store the MASCHINE controller in areas subject to extreme temperatures
(e.g., direct exposure to sunlight in an enclosed vehicle or near heat-generating equip-
ment), or high levels of vibration.
▪
Always let the MASCHINE controller adapt to changed room temperature after it has been
stored in a cold environment.
▪
Do not place the MASCHINE controller in an unstable position where it could accidentally
