Cubasis - duplicate effects from one track to the next
Hey,
I currently use Cubasis as my DAW, although it's frustrating the heck out of me and is soon just going to be a stepping stone on the way getting all my recorded MIDI tracks into Auria...
Anyhow, frustrations aside, does anyone know if you can copy insert / send effects from one track to the next? In fact, can you just duplicate tracks? I can't see anything that would suggest you can do either of these things... They Seem like such a basic features...
I know this is a really Cubasis centric question, but the the forum here is much more 'alive' than Steinberg's Cubasis forum, so i thought I'd pose the question here...
Thanks,
Simon

Hello,

At the moment this is not possible, this two features are already on our "To do" list.

Presets would do the trick as well ;-)
2014...
Is there a way today to copy effects from one track to another?
😅😅😅
We had that recently in another topic.
No, it is still not available, 7 years later.
But @LFS says that Steinberg is hearing what customers want.
And yes, that really is a basic DAW feature.
Allright, we IOS dudes can work around things
Thanks for the fast response!!
You can duplicate tracks and the fx will be duplicated as well. Then just change the instrument and midi. Or use send fx instead of insert. Where you add tracks there is a duplicate button.
Thanks for the help. This is indeed a good approach if the duplicated track stays midi. I freeze tracks to audio so I'm not able to use the duplicated track effects from midi. Not able to change a track from midi to audio ...(I think)
Send effects is indeed another option. But for now I just save the effects preset. Can become long winded if lots of effects are in the slot...
Hi @Bob,
If I understand you correctly, you're freezing tracks to audio, right?
Would recommend this workflow:
Sounds much more complicated than it is, and should work like a breeze...
Please let me know if it does...
Best,
Lars
Thanks for responding! Yes this works, but I freeze with the "real time" option and low to no latency on both audio latency options to prevent a clicky render.
So this action takes more time, but I can work with this.
Well maybe if you did not have 75 freaking tracks this would not be a problem….. 😂😂😂
Nailed it! LOOOL
Hi @Bob,
Glad to read you're up and running!
Why did you choose the "Real-time" option? Would not do this unless necessary.
Hope that helps!
Best,
Lars
Ok, sorry I missed to reply.
When freezing a track I sometimes get weird results:
for ex, the rendered audio is not from the frozen track but from another track.
That's the reason I choose the real time option, this fixes the issue.
Duplicating track, and then removing/adding fx for the new track is also useful for this
Hi Lars,
I have the following issue:
Midi track with Model 15 synth and 4 effects: flux mini, mixbox, bleass filter and Pro Q.
When freezing this single track for rendering into audio, the audio file does not sound the same. No clicks or so, but the sound does not match the original. I tried both normal and real time freeze.
I decided to duplicate the original track and freeze the synth without the 4 effects, thinking it may be the effects causing the issue. This worked, the sound was equal to the frozen track.
Next is to move the audio back to the original track to use the 4 effects on the new audio.
Now, how do we go about moving the rendered audio file back in the unfrozen track if this track is MIDI and not audio?
Your approach mentioned above works on audio only, but can we somehow change the midi track to audio?
Thanks
That's the way I tend to tackle things but it doesn't stop me from wanting to be able to copy/paste FX slots in much the same way as you can on a desktop DAW.
The feature to copy/paste track settings across other tracks and even across other projects was already suggested. While In the middle of a project, it is not possible to bring a track’s settings from another project into the current project or bring multiple tracks from multiple projects into current project.
