Hi All

Can I BUS together 2 channels inside a drum rack? Ie I have a drum kit loaded into a drum rack, I want to compress/clip the kick and snare together. The only workaround I know of is pulling those tracks out of the rack but ideally I would like to keep them nested in the rack.

Select both chains and group them with cmd+g

You can add the Compressor to one of the Drum Rack's return chains, then route multiple pads' audio direct to it using the pads' output selectors - just choose e.g. 'a Return Chain' as the output rather than 'Rack Output'

Thanks both, never thought of that - love learning more of these finer details
