I realize I might have to wait 'til T2's aux tracks, but when you use rack as an effects send (inputs split into 2 pairs of signals, one pair going straight to output and one pair going through a reverb/effect). Is there a way to separately control, for each track, how much signal gets fed in to the effects send? For example, if I have a vocal track and a guitar track, sharing the same rack, to be about the same in dry signal volume, but want alot of reverb on the vocal and minimal reverb on the guitar, is there a way to acheive this through racks?

You could just add a vol/pan filter for each one into the chain before the reverb ,That way you can decide the volume and pan of each signal going to the reverb.

Yes you can:

Click a rack filter icon, and you see options at the bottom of the screen to choose which of that racks inputs and outpus are routed to / from this track:

If the rack is just a stereo reverb it will only have two inputs anyway, but it is the volume control on the right that controls how much of that particular track is fed to the rack.

In other words; on a track that is sending to the reverb, set the rack filter's dry level all the way up, the wet level all the way down, and use the "left input level" slider to control how much signal is sent to the effect. (if "link inputs" is on both sliders will move together)

On the effect return track, set the rack filter's wet level all the way up (as you can use the Vol/Pan filter to control return levels).

Hope that makes sense.. there are some tutorials somewhere if not. :wink:
