Opening an existing Rack File with USB-ME256 and multiple Instances of MC_Rack

If you build up (and saved) a complicated rack in the first instance of MC_Rack which you want
to reuse in the second instance of MC_Rack, please do the following:

1. Start the second instance of MC_Rack.

2. Click "Open" in File menu. The dialog "Open Rack Files" appears. Select the desired rack file.

3. Before the selected file will open in the second instance of MC_Rack, you have to change the

data source specification from the copied file. That is why the dialog " Channel Layout" in
"Data Source Setup" will automatically appear again. Please choose the appropriate MEA
amplifier via block number, assigned the second instance of MC_Rack.

4. Now the reused rack file will be opened in the second instance of MC_Rack. The data source

used for the rack is shown in the blue header of the dialog and after the data source icon.

Note: Please do not miss one of the described steps when reusing an existing file! Otherwise
you have to delete the rack and start the instance of MC_Rack again.

Repeat step 1 to 4 to open the third and fourth instance of MC_Rack with an existing file
to control the amplifiers three and four.
