2.6 Create Processing Groups
Since MultiRack allows you to build Sessions of up to 64 Racks, each of which are specific
processing chains, you may choose to organize related Racks into groups to better manage
your Session. Grouping Racks offers a few advantages:
• Group related Racks together (such as all drum channels), and they will share a
common group name.
• Groups are color-coded, making visual identification of similar Racks much easier.
• Grouped tracks can be latency-aligned, offsetting unequal delays caused by each
channel’s chain of plug-ins, which may have different latencies.

ng to.
Create a group by clicking on the grouping pull-down menu and choosing Open Group
Properties window. Here you create Rack
groups and determine if and how Racks
within the group will be latency-aligned.
In this example, we named the group
“Drums.” Each new group is automatically
assigned a color. (We will discuss latency
alignment in more detail in the section
“Group Properties Window: For
Organization and Latency Alignment.”) For
now, choose Auto, which sets the latency
of all Racks in the group to match that of
the Rack with the greatest latency.
Close the window.
To add more Racks to a group, click on the grouping pull-down menu, where the group
name will appear, and then select the
group that you want the Rack to belo
