"Now what you can do next is you can rename your sends. This is very good for like organizing your whole track. Maybe one two is going to be your reverb and three four is going to be delay and five six is going to be your compress, right. So what I can do is I can go into my setups, go into my setups and open the aisle setup. Now within the aisle setup you can choose between inputs, outputs, inserts, bus, and different things like that. So even if I have an input, if I have an input and I know that my triton is three four, I could always go in and name it triton. Triton. Right. What I could also do is go into my buses. If my bus one two is a reverb, I can just highlight it reverb. And delay. So now, when I press okay, now I can make sure, so if I have a bus, that's going into three, four, it's going to say delay, it's not going to say three four anymore. Also if I go into my interface, the bus is going to go to my reverb as one two."
