Exploring Drum Racks
You may have found a lot of similarities in the functions, purposes, and looks of Instrument and Effect Racks, but Drum Racks work a little differently. Let’s see how Drum Racks operate by building one from scratch!
Follow these steps:
- Create a new MIDI track.
- Head to the browser, choose Drums under Categories, and insert an empty Drum Rack on the new MIDI track (Figure 8.33).

- Go ahead and display all the other areas and functions on the Drum Rack by using the small buttons on the left side of the Rack, as we did before with the other Device Racks we looked at. Now, you will see what the Drum Rack looks like when all the control areas are fully open (Figure 8.34).

- You can already see that there are familiar areas, such as the Macro Variations...
