I'm sure that you can indeed do that, but I wouldn't know how too . . . having never used cubase.

Are you using the reverbs on aux channels using sends per channel? Or are you inserting the reverb plug-in on the channels you want reverb on?

OK, you can insert a single reverb plugin on an aux channel and use aux sends on every source channel to send to that one reverb. Way less processing required.

Yes. Click project>add track>FX track>then add your plugin>on the track you want the plugin(reverb) go to sends>pick your reverb> add the amount you desire.

the straw that broke the camels back. You know you can lock audio as well which basically copies the track out as audio and saves the processing power. If you unlock it then reverts to the track and your plugins.
But yeah, an aux channel is the best way, unless you're using a different type of reverb on every track....
So, is that low alcohol or no alcohol at all? mmmm, no alcohol, do you want to try it? Noooooooooo.

The thing I like about using the same reverb from a send, but in different amounts on different tracks, you can create a feeling of everything being in the same space, but a different positions. Creating an illusion of reality for the listener.

The modern sequencer is the olden day desk. The insert channel is for compression, gate and eq. The ambient stuff should be shared. Well after that you need to get personal, like parallel comp, group channel comp and reveb on ... well stuff ya wannna put together.

The endless quest for improvement is unstoppable. To give up at first base is unbelievable.
