Is there a way to save FX settings & then move them between different programs & projects ? Ableton calls this an audio effect rack. the MV has a way of doing this also.

I particularly wanted to use it for the AIR CHANNEL STRIP/COMPRESSOR & create 3-6 presets for drums, bass, lead, vocals. I would apply the presets to the pads in my audio clip program.

I got the idea from NI stems creator tool.

Don't believe you can do that in the manner you'd like. I'm missing that feature as well, in Reason you can do that as well.

What you can do is save a preset for each affect you have on that chain. So when you want to recreate it you just add those affects to the inserts, then load the presets.

Otherwise, you can create a project template. Meaning you have your drum program loaded on a track, what ever keygroups you use often, put the effects you like on those. Then save that project and set it to load as the default project template, that would just be your starting point.

Maybe the next firmware will introduce some of those other ideas.
