How to Route MASCHINE Sounds to Separate Tracks in FL Studio

This article explains how to route MASCHINE Sounds to separate tracks in FL Studio. This is useful if you wish to use different insert / send effects or apply FL Studio's volume and panorama controls to each sound individually.

Configuring FL Studio

  2. Under the Audio tab, choose separate destinations for each sound of the loaded kit. In our example, Kick EarlyBird 1 is set to Ext. 1. The following sound (Snare EarlyBird 1) is set to Ext. 2, and so on in ascending order.
