Parameter DescriptionFilter Activates a filter on the side-chain input. This filter can be useful toselect only a specific frequency range of the side-chain signal tocontrol the Plug-in.Center Freq Adjusts the center frequency of the filter.Width Adjusts the bandwidth of the filter.On your controller the outputs available in the SOURCE parameter are labeled as in the display ofthe Source selector described above.Note that the settings of the Side-Chain Input page stay in place when you switch to another Plug-in supporting side-chain. This notably allows you to try different compressors or different compres-sion presets without losing the side-chain setup.14.2 Applying Effects to External AudioMASCHINE’s flexible routing facilities allow you to apply effects to external audio as well. Thisexternal audio can come from the inputs of your audio interface if MASCHINE is used instand-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.14.2.1 Step 1: Configure MASCHINE Audio InputsMASCHINE’s audio input configuration can be done in the software only. Furthermore, thisconfiguration 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 fromyour host on any of its eight mono virtual inputs. To know how to route audio in your host to thevirtual inputs of the MASCHINE plug-in, please refer to your host documentation. When this isdone, go directly to section ↑14.2.2, Step 2: Set up a Sound to Receive the External Input.Using EffectsApplying Effects to External AudioMASCHINE MIKRO - Manual - 649
