17.8.1
Extracting Chains
All chains can be dragged from their parent Racks and placed into other tracks or Racks,
either from the chain list or from the Session View mixer. A Drum Rack's return chains can
also be extracted, and will create new return tracks if dragged to the mixer. Drum chains
have an additional feature: when dragged from the mixer to a new track, they take their
MIDI notes with them. For example, if you are working on a MIDI drum loop within a single
track and decide that you would like to move just the snare onto its own track, simply select
the snare chain's title bar in the mixer and drag it to the mixer's drop area. This creates a
new track with the full contents of the snare chain: both its devices and its MIDI data. If you
would like to extract only the devices, drag from the chain list instead of from the mixer.
