Processor Rack Inputs & Outputs

It would be nice if a processor rack had a property that specified a number of inputs and outputs. I’ve seen a number of racks where the user has to guess where the inputs should be wired to.

I found that rack inputs can be somewhat emulated by a stereo to l/r module that feed into an internal l/r to stereo module. The problems with this are 1) the input is not accessible in compact view and 2) for racks with lots of inputs it can get unnecessarily wide.

I was disappointed to find that the input hack doesn’t work for outputs. You can’t access anything inside the rack from modules to it’s right, only the module’s one-and-only output socket. Makes it kind of difficult to create a temporary 1-in-N-out rack until we get native ones.

If a rack could specify that it has n inputs and m outputs, and preferably multiple categories, audio, control, ... then Drambo could make using user-created racks almost as simple as native ones.
