The Modular Plug Area shows you and let you edit the very basic connections between the various plugins and Racks in your session.
This is how it works:
- You can click a plug box to focus it.
- You can drag a plug box to move it.
- You can even drag a plug box into a Rack slot if you want. This is the same as the "Put Into Rack" function in the plugs context menu.
- You can doubleclick a plug box to open its editor. Once a plugin editor is open, you can also use Esc to close it.
- You can right-click a plug box for its context menu, e.g. if you want to replace or remove a plugin.
- You can drag a line from 1 jack to another so to connect them. Note that only jacks of the same type can be connected, and only Output <-> Input.
- You can drag a line from 1 jack to a plug box. Then MU.LAB will automatically connect it to the proper jack. Or popup a menu if there are multiple options.
- You can right-click a jack for its context menu, e.g. if you want to delete a connection.
- Right-click pops up a context menu with various options: Add Plugin, Auto-Arrange, ...
- You can press TAB to switch between the Racks view and the Modular Plug Area.
- You can control a Mixer Strip or Send Gain with a MIDI controller:
- Right-click the plugin, and choose Assign MIDI Controller
- Then tweak the MIDI controlller you want to use
- Then choose which parameter you want to control from the popup menu. In the case of a send, the only option is "Send Gain".
Note: Make sure the Mixer Strip or Send Gain is connected to the Audio Output in some way, via other plugins, that's ok. As a plugin that is not connected, is not processed.
