User Manual
▪ MIDI input settings of a Sound and its parent Group are merged: For example, if you con-
figure a Group to  react to incoming notes  on  MIDI channel 1, but  one Sound is setup  to
react  to  incoming  notes  on  MIDI  channel  2,  then  this  Sound  will  react  to  one  incoming
note on MIDI channel 1 and all incoming notes on channel 2.
▪ The MIDI input settings described here also affect other MASCHINE features:
◦ The  preset  selection  via  MIDI  Program  Change  for  Native  Instruments  and  External
Plug-ins.  See  section  ↑11.2.4,  Selecting  VST/AU  Plug-in  Presets  via  MIDI  Program
Change for more information.
◦ The way MIDI files are imported to Sounds and Groups. See section ↑10.8.3, Import-
ing MIDI to Patterns for more information.
◦ The way the MIDI dragger in the Pattern editor places Sounds when they are dragged
to host software.
▪ MIDI automation (i.e.  controlling MASCHINE  parameters via  MIDI) is  not affected by  the
settings described here. For more information on MIDI automation, please refer to section
↑11.2.3, Controlling Parameters via MIDI and Host Automation.
