Automatic Group Bank Management
In MASCHINE Group banks are managed automatically, so that you don’t have to create or de-
lete them manually. Group are always adjacent in the Group List: you cannot have any gap in
the Group List — nor in any Group bank. When you create a new Group, the following happens:
▪ As long as the last Group bank contains less than eight Groups, the new Group is created
in that bank.
▪ If the last bank already contains eight Groups, a new Group bank is automatically created
after the existing bank(s) and the new Group is created in that new bank.

Creating Groups on Your Controller
On your controller, existing Groups are indicated by the lit Group buttons A–H:
▪ The focused Group is indicated by the fully lit Group button.
▪ The other Groups of your Project are indicated by half-lit Group buttons, each Group but-
ton showing the color of the corresponding Group.
▪ In the last Group bank the last half-lit Group button is white: It doesn’t correspond to any
existing Group, but instead allows you to create another Group in your Project.
