Effect Rack

Soundtoys

Where to get itAvailable from Soundtoyssoundtoys.com

You can combine effects like SuperPlate, Decapitator, EchoBoy, Crystallizer, and others via drag-and-drop, then save the entire chain as a single preset. What sets Effect Rack apart is its streamlined workflow for creating complex effects chains while maintaining individual plugin editing, bypass, and automation capabilities—all accessible from a central control panel with global tempo sync, input/output level management, and a feedback routing (Recycle) control.

Written from the manual and checked against it. How we check

Key Features

01Drag-and-drop effect insertion, reordering, and replacement
02Global tempo control synced to MIDI, tap tempo, or manual BPM entry
03Recycle control routes output back to input for feedback and resonance
04Per-plugin bypass (Power button) and solo isolation
05Global Input/Output level controls for chain management
06Individual Effects Preset menus for each loaded plugin

Things to Try

  • 01Use Recycle to increase resonant presence and create lush echoes, but be cautious at extreme settings as it can boost output significantly and cause runaway self-oscillation
  • 02Place Effect Rack on an aux or bus and set Mix to 100% wet, using send levels to control the signal entering the rack
  • 03Use the Solo button to quickly isolate and focus on individual rack elements when debugging complex chains
  • 04Tap Tempo to determine the BPM feel of live tracks not recorded to a click, useful for finding the right modulation character
