Any input level reaching the slider position will start the recording! Double-click the slider
to reset the threshold to its default value (-12 dB).
Monitoring the Input Signal
Visually controlling the input signal.
The level meters above the RECORDING section show you at any time the level of the selected
audio source. For example, this can come in handy to adjust the appropriate threshold in De-
tect mode. For this purpose, in Detect mode the level meters additionally provide a fader ad-
justing the threshold level — this fader is a strict equivalent to the THRESHOLD control de-
scribed above. This way, you can easily visualize when the input signal exceeds the current
threshold (and hence, when it would start the recording) and adjust that threshold accordingly.
Prelistening to the input signal.
Furthermore, If you have selected an external signal (Ext. Ster. or Ext. Mono selected in
SOURCE), an additional MONITOR section appears on the right. In this section, activate the
MONITOR button to send the input signal to the Cue bus of MASCHINE, allowing you to hear
on a separate channel (e.g., your headphones) the audio source that is about to be recorded.
For more information on how to use the Cue bus, please refer to section ↑12.2.6, Using
the Cue Bus.
