Adding Devices to the Routing MatrixĮach instance of Multi Instrument can host multiple plug-in instruments and Note FX processors. You can click-and-drag the corner of the window to re-size it to your needs. Here, you'll find a device routing matrix, instrument inspector, and keyboard range settings.
