How to insert multiple instances of a fx plugin in same time.

Wondering if we have this feature or not. Trying to insert using control key like quick grouping doesn't work. All other daw's seem to have this covered. Lets say I want insert a channel strip plugin in all the tracks or few selected tracks. How to I do this quickly. Do I have to go through the same process of finding and selecting the plugin for each channel.

    A technique I use is CTRL+Drag on an existing instance to the new track's FX bin.

    Should work by just holding ctrl + select  tracks + insert fx. If by any reason that wouldn't work you can also ctrl drag plug-ins from track to another.

    ctrl + select tracks  + insert fx doesn't work. Yes I control drag. Better option than selecting the plugin each time from the menu. It copies but again have to control drag them individually to all the tracks. It can be done very quick and simple in other daw's. Quick group options should be made available for insert plugin's.

    I insert FX Chain presets or work with track templates holding all plugins.

    You can insert/remove multiple ProChannel effects via Quick Grouping.

    The first 3 books in "The Musician's Guide to Home Recording" series are available from Hal Leonard and http://www.reverb.com. Listen to my music on http://www.YouTube.com/thecraiganderton, and visit http://www.craiganderton.com. Thanks!

    Thank you Scook . Thanks Craig I have noticed that in pro channel. THambrecht yes thanks, I use track templates intensively. Yet this feature will be really handy in inserting all kinds of channel strip plugins.
