→ The Plug-in shows up in its own floating window.
When  undocking  Native  Instruments  Plug-ins,  their  panel  in  the  Plug-in  Strip  is  re-
placed by a thin Plug-in placeholder (see below).
Plug-ins of Native Instruments platform products (REAKTOR, KONTAKT, GUITAR RIG)
are automatically opened in floating windows when loaded from the Plug-in menu.
MASCHINE will always show the open floating windows of the focused channel (Sound, Group
or Master). In this channel you can have as many open floating windows as you see fit. When
you set the focus to another channel, all open floating windows disappear, possibly replaced by
those  for  Native  Instruments  and/or  External  Plug-ins  loaded  in  the  newly  focused  channel
(Sound, Group or Master).
The Plug-in floating window is the same as in Arrange view — see section ↑6.3.1, Open-
ing/Closing Plug-in Windows for more on this.

When  you  open  a  Native  Instruments  Plug-in  its  own  floating  window,  following  things  addi-
tionally happen:
▪ In  the  Plug-in  Strip  the  Plug-in  panel  is  replaced  with  a  thin  vertical  Plug-in  placeholder
containing only the little diagonal arrow — this allows you to dock the Plug-in back into the
Plug-in Strip (see below).
