Rack Module

Setup a Rack Module to provide the Sounds you need.

Audio Port
Moves the module to another host or port. Select an Audio Engine Port or Drone as the target where you want the module to be moved. Learn how to move a module to a Drone in a DAW here.
Output Port
Pick an external MIDI port for the module to send its output to (MIDI modules only). Any port may receive output only from a single module.
Device Description
Select a known Device Description that matches the plug-in or external hardware, or perform one of these actions:
Detect
Matches the current state of the plug-in with previously saved Rack Module Presets and select the device description associated with those.
Unknown Device
Go without a device description for now.
Create New
Create a new device description for use with this module.
Extract From Plug-in ...
Attempt to extract a device description from the plug-in.
Download From Repository ...
Search the Online Repository for a device description that matches the current plug-in.
Show Device Layout
Opens an inspector showing the channel layout of the device you selected for the module.
3-Way Plug-in Button
This button allows for three tasks to be performed:
  1. Load or save a Rack Module Preset. New presets are listed in the Rack Module Library automatically.
  2. Open the current Plug-in Editor.
  3. Load an Audio Plug-in.
Insert FX Slots
Up to three slots are available for effects plug-ins (Express and Pro).
AUX Send
Controls the amount of post-effects signal sent to the AUX Module (If the Global Rack has one).
Volume
Overall output level for the module. Don't use this for mixing. Keep at 0 dB unless you need to compensate for grossly unequal audio levels.
Solo
Temporarily mutes all other rack modules.
Mute
Temporarily mutes only this rack module.
Colors, Icons
You can customize a rack module to improve your oversight.
Label
Enter a name for your rack module.
Anmerkung: Keep in mind that audio controls are for a whole plug-in. If a plug-in hosts multiple instruments on different MIDI channels, all of them are affected equally.

Option Menu

Exclude From Rack
Detaches the rack module from the current rack, so you can attach it to another. Makes it a Transient Rack Module that is no longer saved with the current rack.
Include With Rack
Attaches a Transient Rack Module to the current rack, making it a permanent part of it.
