254 Instrument, Drum and Effect Racks
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 reflected 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 Device View.
As with tracks, when chains are multiselected in the Session View mixer, adjusting a mixer pa-
rameter for one of the chains will adjust the same parameter in the other selected chains. Note
that this behavior only applies to parameters adjusted via the Session mixer and not when ad-
justing the same parameters in the Rack’s chain list.
18.8.1 Extracting Chains
All chains can be dragged from their parent Racks and placed into other tracks or Racks, ei-
ther from the chain list or from the Session View mixer. A Drum Rack’s return chains can also be
extracted, and will create new return tracks if dragged to the mixer. Drum chains have an ad-
ditional feature: when dragged from the mixer to a new track, they take their MIDI notes with
them. For example, if you are working on a MIDI drum loop within a single track and decide that
you would like to move just the snare onto its own track, simply select the snare chain’s title bar
