Copying Batch FX

If you want to reuse a Batch FX, you can copy it as follows:

- From the timeline to the Batch schematic for use in the current setup
- From one segment to another for use in the same timeline

You can copy a Batch FX as long as it was created with the Pre option. The process tree is copied to the destination. Only the selected Batch FX is copied; nested setups are not copied.
