When this option would be switched on, whenever you added a new sub-rack it would rewire it to the end of the chain. So the wiring would look like this:
Main rack's rack slots -> Sub rack 1 -> Sub rack 2 -> Audio Output
*Adds a rack*
Main rack's rack slots -> Sub rack 1 -> Sub rack 2 -> Sub rack 3 -> Audio Output
*Rearranges Sub rack 3 with Sub rack 2*
Main rack's rack slots -> Sub rack 1 -> Sub rack 3 -> Sub rack 2 -> Audio Output
The wiring is analogous to the order of the sub-racks.
Now that we can make rack devices it would allow us a great bitwig-like workflow. You could make a bunch of mini-devices, insert a synth in the main rack and stack a bunch of processing FX in the sub racks while being exposed to all controls without having to open and manage several floating windows.

On top of that, there could be a '+' button on the right side of the mixer strip to easily add new racks without the need to go into modular area.

Thx for your suggestion.
I've bookmarked this topic, will reread it later.
Currently focused on extending MuLab's plugin system to support multiple plugins in a single DLL.
Will take a bit of time.

That sounds intriguing. Forgive my ignorance but what is supporting multiple plugins in a single dll?

There are plugins that have different versions inside a single DLL file.
Currently MuLab only supports 1 plugin per DLL and so users are missing certain plugins.
I'm probably not explaining it well atm, maybe someone else can.

Yes! Thank you so much Jo!
U-he uhbik VST 3 plugin is the perfect example of multiple plugins in a single file. It no longer supports VST 2 so you cannot access more than one plugin in MuLab, that is what Jo is working on.
Not sure if you are aware, but uhbik consists of ten FX plugins. Which used to be separate DLL files as VST 2. But they moved on and VST 3 supports only one plugin containing all ten FX. In Reaper it shows up as ten separate plugins, but MuLab only sees one, due to it being only a single VST 3 file. It's simply a container for all plugins in one single file.

Thanks to the tag team of proper explanation, now I know. How does clap handle this?
