A layer is an '''Audio Processing Chain''', normally assigned to a MIDI channel, that can be composed of one or several Audio Processing Units. This units are chained by default, although you can customize the audio routing. The first unit in a layer is the '''root''' and determines the layer's type:

The rest of units in a layer normally are FX units that process the audio coming-out from the first unit (root).

All units in a layer receive all the MIDI events coming from the assigned channel. Special layers don't have an assigned MIDI channel and receive all MIDI channels.
