3.

Click the “

+

” icon at the top of the Plug-in List.

The Plug-in menu opens and shows a list of all available Instrument and Effect Plug-ins.

4.

Click the desired effect in the list. If you have VST/AU effect plug-ins installed you may
also load them from the menu by selecting the

Native Instruments

(Native Instruments

products) or

External

(third-party products) submenu at the top of the list.

Upon selection the effect is loaded and its parameters are displayed in the Parameter
area. When you load an effect into the first Plug-in slot of a Sound, MASCHINE automati-
cally configures the Sound’s input to receive any signal(s) coming from other Sounds and
Groups in your Project and sends them through its own Plug-in slots — in other words,
you now have a send effect.

You could also load an effect preset from the Browser instead of using the Plug-in menu. For more

information on how to load effect presets, see

4.2, Searching and Loading Files from the Library

.

Now that the effect is loaded, we suggest that you rename the Sound slot to the Plug-in name:
this will be of great help when routing other signals to that send effect (see section

↑

14.3.2,

Step 2: Route Audio to the Send Effect

below). To rename the Sound slot:

1.

Double-click the name of the Sound slot in the Sound List.
The name becomes highlighted, ready to be edited.

2.

Type the name of the Plug-in, and press [Enter] on your computer keyboard to confirm.
