MANAGING THE RACK
50
In this example an RV-7 reverb device is moved:
4. Release the mouse button.
The device(s) are moved to the new position and the other devices in the
rack are adjusted to fill up the “gaps”.
! Note that if you start to move a device but change your mind, you
can abort the operation by pressing [Esc] while keeping the mouse
button pressed.
D If you hold down [Shift] when you move a device, Reason will at-
tempt to automatically re-route it.
See page 51 for more info on auto-routing.
! Moving devices in the rack does not affect the order of the se-
quencer tracks and vice versa.
Duplicating Devices
To make a copy of a device in the rack, hold down [Option] (Mac) or [Ctrl] (Win-
dows) and drag it to a new position.
D If you hold down [Shift] when you duplicate the device, Reason will
attempt to automatically route it, just as when you move devices.
See page 51.
Cut, Copy and Paste
Selected devices can be moved or duplicated using the Cut, Copy and Paste
Device functions on the Edit menu or device context menu. For example, this al-
lows you to copy one or several devices (such as an instrument device and all its
insert effects) from one Reason Song to another. The following rules apply:
D Cut and Copy affects all selected devices, and work according to the
standard procedures.
That is, Cut moves the devices to the clipboard (removing them from the
rack) while Copy creates copies of the devices and puts these on the clip-
board, without affecting the rack.
D When you Paste devices, these are inserted into the rack below the
currently selected device.
If no device is selected, the pasted devices will appear at the bottom of the
rack.
D If you Copy and Paste several devices, the connections between
these are preserved.
D If you hold down [Shift] when you Paste a device, Reason will at-
tempt to automatically route it.
The rules are the same as when moving or duplicating devices by dragging.
See page 51.
In this case, the red line indicates that the reverb device will be inserted to the left of the
phaser.
This is the result. Note that the filter device is moved to the left, to fill out the gap.
In this case, the red line indicates that the reverb device will be inserted to the right of the
chorus/flanger.
This is the result. All three devices are moved to the left, to fill out the gap.
