[edit] (4,2x)(4,2)(4x,2) Machine
For this trick, you make three Columns.
Do Two In One Hand as Columns, and with the other hand lift a ball straight up and Carry it across the pattern.
The 2-ball hand shifts the pattern by tossing the center ball to the other side.
Drop the third ball into the gap in the pattern, and snatch the crossing ball to be the next Carry.
That catch is "claw" style, sweeping down with palm down, helping you to always show the ball.
The higher you can snatch it, the better for the appearance of the pattern.
To start, the 2-ball hand can do its center Column first,
then the side Column while the other hand follows it up with the Carry.
Find a video at Gerd Balser's website, done is classic synchronous style.
Matt Mangham has a very good animated tutorial and video.
[edit] Machine 3.0
A simpler site-swap: it's just '3';
and a simpler, but very much more difficult version of the basic action.
The normal pattern above should be done at this speed too.

In this variation, the same ball is carried back and forth.
