5. Turn the Control encoder to select the desired Choke mode from MASTER (default set-ting) or SLAVE for that pad.6. Release PAD MODE (or press it again if you pinned the mode).5.1.5 Using Link GroupsWhen your pads are in Group mode, Link groups allow you to link pads with each other: thiscan be used to trigger multiple Sounds when pressing only one pad. Each pad of a Group canbe assigned to one of eight Link groups. A pad may be set as a Master or Slave in the Linkgroup:▪ If the pad is set to Master (default setting) it will trigger other pads in the same Link group.▪ If the pad is set to Slave it will only trigger its own Sound, even if it is part of a Link group— but be triggered by pads set to Master within the same group.You may set more than one pad as Master or Slave within the same group.Link groups affect not only the notes you play on the pads and the notes triggered by thePatterns, but also the MIDI notes controlling your Sounds.Link groups are a “live” feature: They only affect the note triggers. In Record mode,Link groups don’t affect the notes recorded in your Patterns — in other terms noteswon’t be recorded for the linked pads! Notably, this allow you to modify your Link groupassignments after recording. If you want to copy the notes from a Sound to anotherSound in Patterns, please refer to section ↑7.4, Editing Events.You can select multiple Sound slots and quickly assign them all to a particular Linkgroup at once!To assign the selected Sound(s) to a Link group and set its/their Link mode (Master or Slave),do the following:1. Click the Pad View button above the Sound List in the Pattern Editor to show the Padview for the focused Group.Playing on Your ControllerAdjusting Your PadsMASCHINE MIKRO - Manual - 220
