Audiobus: Use your music apps together.
What is Audiobus? — Audiobus is an award-winning music app for iPhone and iPad which lets you use your other music apps together. Chain effects on your favourite synth, run the output of apps or Audio Units into an app like GarageBand or Loopy, or select a different audio interface output for each app. Route MIDI between apps — drive a synth from a MIDI sequencer, or add an arpeggiator to your MIDI keyboard — or sync with your external MIDI gear. And control your entire setup from a MIDI controller.

How to use global fx on just one track in garageband
So...
Just mute all tracks that you don't want having the global fx event and double tap one of the ones that you do...
Choose merge and merge the fx track with the ones you do want the fx on then DELETE the fx track itself...the muted ones are thus no longer effected lol
Hope this helps, apologies if this has already been discovered

Thank you!
@Love3quency
Yeah Thanks --that's a great tip! I had always found that vexing. Looking forward to trying that out
Interesting does this mean the merged tracks can no longer be edited separately anymore?
Okay re-reading again. Is this the equivalent of a one time "destructively" applied effect?
The merged tracks can be further edited as any track can but obviously it is rendered as a wav form not midi notes
What do you mean by a "one time destructively applied effect"?
Okay thanks, I get it now
