CHAPTER 16. INSTRUMENT, DRUM AND EFFECT RACKS 234
16.8 Mixing With Racks
Any Instrument or Drum Rack that contains more than one chain can be viewed and mixed
alongside the tracks in the Session View's mixer. A track that contains these Racks will have
a button in its title bar, which will fold the Rack's mixer in or out. Likewise, any nested
chains within the Rack will also have this button. This makes it easy to get an overview of
your Rack's hierarchy or hide it when you just want to work on your mix.
Mixing Rack Chains in
the Session View.
Chains in the Session View mixer look similar to tracks, but they have no clip slots. Their
mixing and routing controls mirror those found in the Rack's chain list, so any changes made
to these controls in either area will be reected in the other immediately. Likewise, many
chain operations such as reordering, renaming and regrouping can be performed from either
the mixer or the chain list. Clicking in a chain's mixer title bar shows only that chain's devices
in the Track View.
