THE COMBINATOR
502
D If you press [Alt](Win) or [Option](Mac) while dragging, a copy of the Combi is created.
No Auto-routing takes place. If you press [Alt](Win) or [Option](Mac) + [Shift] the copied Combi will be auto-routed
according to standard rules.
Moving devices within a Combi
Just as for devices in the rack, an outline of the devices is shown when you drag, and a red line shows the insert po-
sition. All connections are kept.
D If you press [Shift] when dragging, the device(s) will attempt to auto-route to the insert position according to
standard rules.
Moving devices out of a Combi
If you move devices out of a Combi the following applies:
D The routing is unchanged, and the External Routing indicator is likely to light up.
If you press [Shift] when dragging, the device(s) will attempt to auto-route to the rack according to standard rules.
Deleting devices in a Combi
This works exactly as for devices in the rack. Select the device and then either select “Delete Devices and Tracks”
from the Edit menu or context menu, or press [Backspace].
Uncombining devices
You can uncombine a whole Combi or selected devices within a Combi in the following way:
D If you select a Combinator and then select “Uncombine” from the Edit menu, the Combinator device will be re-
moved, and all devices contained in the Combi will be connected as a single device to the rack.
The devices previously connected to the To/From Devices connectors will now be connected to the rack in the
same way the Combinator device was (via the Combinator output and input).
D If you uncombine a few selected devices in a Combi these will be removed from the Combi and added to the
rack below the Combi.
Connections are unchanged, so external routing is likely to happen.
Sequencer tracks and playing Combis
When you create a Combinator device, a sequencer track is automatically created. This track is also given Master
Keyboard Input just like standard instrument devices.
D When the Combinator track receives incoming MIDI data, this will be routed to all instrument devices in an in-
strument Combi.
This means that the devices will be layered when you play (taking default velocity and key ranges into account).
D You can turn off Receive Note or selected Performance controller data for individual instrument devices in the
Programmer panel.
See “Using the Programmer” for details.
