Preparing samples for the Maschine+

The Native Instruments Maschine+ runs at 44.1 kHz, 24-bit in standalone mode, with samples living on its SD card under Native Instruments/Maschine 2/Samples. You reach the card either through Storage Mode, which mounts it over USB, or by removing it.

After copying files, the browser needs a nudge: go to USER and press SHIFT and RESCAN so new content appears, where each folder shows up as a Bank. SampleStack converts and organizes a library into that Samples path so a rescan surfaces it cleanly in groups and sounds.
