I have a project with six guitar tracks. Each track has the same plug-in inserts on it. I'd like to maximize my CPU bandwidth by have them all go through one track and use just one instance of the same plug-in. What is the best way to set this up?
I don't want to use sends and returns because I don't want any of the dry signal used. It has to be an insert, it is GuitarRig.

Advice?

Thanks

freeze the tracks.

Use a send, but set the tracks' output to 'sends only'.

Alternatively, make a new audio track, set the tracks' output to that track, and make sure monitoring is on.

Beware that six guitar tracks into one plug might sound different than each of them through each of their own plugs.

thanks noisetonepause,

i'll try that out. i didn't want to freeze because that means i'd have to separately maintain the plug-in settings on each track as i make tweaks. i want one plug-in to rule them all...
