241 Instrument, Drum and Effect Racks
Components of a Drum Rack.
1. Racks have distinct views that can be shown or hidden as needed. Therefore, every Rack
has a view column on its far left side that holds the corresponding view selectors. The ac-
tual view selectors available differ depending on whether an Instrument, Drum or Effect
Rack is being used.
2. Macro Controls
3. Chain List. In Drum Racks, this view can include both drum chains and return chains.

To move, copy or delete an entire Rack at once, simply select it by its title bar (as opposed to the

the Edit menu’s Rename command. You can also enter your own info text for a Rack via the Edit
Info Text command in the Edit menu or in the Racks’s [right-click](PC) / [CTRL-click](Mac) context
menu.
When all of a Rack’s views are hidden, its title bar will fold into the view column, making the
entire Rack as slim as possible. This has the same effect as choosing Fold from the [right-click]
(PC) / [CTRL-click](Mac) context menu or double-clicking on the Rack’s title bar.
If you would like to locate a particular device in a Rack without searching manually through its
entire contents, you will appreciate this navigation shortcut: [right-click](PC) / [CTRL-click](Mac)
on the Device View selector, and a hierarchical list of all devices in the track’s device chain will
