Previewing Sounds in NI Maschine

[composition2012]

Hello Everyone!

I have a two quick questions for you. I recently got rid of my hardware set up and I am working with Maschine now. I absolutely love it! I can see this being my weapon of choice for a long time!

I pretty much have it down. My question is this: Is there an easier way to preview sounds in real time (like drums while the sample is playing)? And how?

I have used Battery before and there is an in kit preview and I thought it was nice. I would like to play the samples I bring in along with my mix before I actually introduce them.

Also, how are tempo changes handled?

Thanks for your help and keep banging!

Someone else can help more, I don't use maschine, but I'm pretty sure from seeing others on it that there is an"autoplay' preview option you need to turn on.
