User Manual

thermore, the paths of the imported folders are added to the list of user libraries in the
User pane of the Library page in the Preferences panel — see section ↑2.6.4, Preferences
– Default Page for more information on this.
If the folder(s) you are importing contain different types of files (e.g., Samples, Sounds,
and Groups), the various imported files will be available by selecting the corresponding
types in the File Type selector (see section ↑3.2.4, Selecting a File Type).
You can also apply/remove tags at any time after they are imported. However, it may be
best to tag files on import, since it will make it easier to find them later.
Other Attributes Set During Import
In addition to the Type (and possibly) Mode tags that you can manually assign to the files be-
ing imported (see above), other attributes are automatically set as follows:
▪ For all file types, any attributes already assigned to the files will be retained.
▪ For Samples, if the product/bank/sub-bank attributes are empty, they will be set to the
folders in which the Samples are located:
◦ The product will be set to the name of the folder you have selected.
◦ If Samples reside in a subfolder of this folder, the subfolder name will be used as
bank.
◦ If Samples reside in a subfolder of this subfolder, the name of the lower subfolder will
be used as sub-bank.
3.7 Locating Missing Samples
If you are loading a MASCHINE Project and one or more referenced Sample(s) cannot be found
for any reason, a dialog in which you can locate the missing Samples will appear.
