10.2 Applying Effects to External Audio
MASCHINE’s flexible routing facilities allow you to apply effects to external audio as well. This
external audio can come from the inputs of your audio interface if MASCHINE is used in
stand-alone mode, or from your host if MASCHINE is used as a plug-in.
To do this, we will choose a Sound and make use of the Audio page in its Input properties.
10.2.1 Step 1: Configure MASCHINE Audio Inputs
MASCHINE’s audio input configuration can be done in the software only. Furthermore, this
configuration is necessary only if you use MASCHINE as stand-alone application.
If you are using MASCHINE as a plug-in in a host application, MASCHINE can receive
audio from your host on any of its eight mono virtual inputs. To know how to route audio
in your host to the virtual inputs of the MASCHINE plug-in, please refer to your host
documentation. When this is done, go directly to section
Sound to Receive the External Input
.
