Applying Effects to Multiple Channels Simultaneously.

To place multiple instances of the same effect on multiple mixer channels:

1. Select the channels to which you want to apply the effect. To do this, first click on the channel number of the first channel to select it. Then hold down the Shift key and select the number of the last channel. This also selects all intermediate channels. If you press the Ctrl key instead of the Shift key, you can add any other channels to the selection.

2. Now select an insert effect for one of the selected channels and adjust it to your liking. As soon as you close the effect window, the effect with these settings will be loaded into all selected channels.

   This only works if you close the effect dialog immediately afterwards without opening other effect dialogs first.

3. If you later select multiple channels and make changes to one instance of the effect, those changes will be applied to all instances of the effect in the selected channels.

   This behavior can be deactivated in Program Preferences > Effects > General with the Copy effect settings to selected tracks option, separately for effects that you have newly inserted or that you had switched off and reactivated, and for effects that already exist.

4. To remove the effect from all selected channels, it is enough to remove it from one insert slot. All other instances of the effect will be removed as well.
