Resizing and detaching the rack

get a good overview of all devices in your rack.

mize” button to the right of the Rack Navigator.
The rack Maximize and Detach buttons.

About Device Groups
A Device Group is a series of interconnected devices that “belong together”. A Device Group could be, for example,
an instrument device connected to an effect device and then to a Mix Channel device.
A Device Group consists of the following:
• One (and only one) Source device (e.g. an instrument).
• The devices to which the Source device feeds its audio signals (e.g. and effect device).
• Any CV-only devices (a Matrix Sequencer, for example) that are CV-connected to devices in this group only.
• All sequencer tracks and Main Mixer channel strips for the devices in the group.
! A Device Group is only defined by the connections between the devices - it has nothing to do with the physical
location of the devices in the rack.
