▪ If playback is off, the playhead jumps to the closest Perform Grid division. If the Perform
Grid is set to Off (i.e. disabled), the playhead jumps to the exact position you have clicked.
If  the  Perform  Grid  is  set  to  Quick,  the  playhead  jumps  to  the  beginning  of  the  bar  you
have clicked in.
▪ If playback is on, the playhead jumps to the closest position near your mouse cursor and
retains  the  playhead  position  relative  to  the  Perform  Grid  division.  This  allows  seamless
jumps that don’t break the rhythm of your music. If the Perform Grid is set to Off (i.e. disa-
bled) or Quick, the playhead position is retained relative to the current bar.
You can also change the playback position by switching to another Scene. The moment at which the
jump will occur  depends on  the Perform  Grid setting.  See section  ↑11.1.6, Adjusting the Arrange
Grid and the Pattern Length for more information.
16.5 Triggering Sections or Scenes via MIDI
You  can  trigger  and  change  Sections  and  Scenes  using  MIDI  Note  or  MIDI  Program  Change
messages sent from your host to the MASCHINE plug-in or MIDI controller.
When this feature is enabled, MIDI notes or Program Change messages are linked to the first
128 Section slots or Scenes (depending on your settings) whether they are empty or not:
Section/Scene Slot MIDI Note Number Program Change Number
1 0 1
2 1 2
3 2 3
… … …
128 127 128
MIDI Note numbers: Host applications use various conventions to name MIDI notes. For example, in
MASCHINE, MIDI note number 0 is referred to as C-2 and MIDI note number 60 (middle C) as C3.
Please refer to the documentation of your host to know which convention is used.
