Ok .. I've got CC to work on a Track1 - looks great. I now want to copy those CC settings to Track3 to do the same? Any ideas?

If it's color correction on a track, then just save the chain and open the chain on the new track.
If it's corrected on an individual event, you can still save as a chain, and do the same.
You could also copy the attributes of the corrected events, select all events on track 3, and Paste Attributes.

"If it's corrected on an individual event, you can still save as a chain, and do the same." - This I do all the time - but thank you.

Ahah! "If it's color correction on a track, then just save the chain and open the chain on the new track." Your first one was the item. . .

However, what has been tricking me was that I needed to apply at least a Sony FX CC first THEN I can slip on my own Chain from Plugin Manager . . did you know that? I need to apply a standard FX to a track before I could apply my own chain? This is not the same for draqgging a homegrown Chain to a T/L Event - I can just slip them on! Voila! - But here I need to apply at least the SOny FX I want to .. then . . . etc etc . .

Awkward criter aint I?

Grazie

I'm lost with what you're suggesting here, I just open my FX and insert a chain from the Packages folder, no adding anything. But if it works, great.

"I'm lost with what you're suggesting here, . . . " I could not just drag a Home Made FX Chain to the track header. I had to drag a Sony made FX to the header THEN I could drag a homemade chain to it. Yes?

"I just open my FX and insert a chain from the Packages folder, no adding anything." - So what you do is to open your FX - on the track header? You do this by dragging an FX to the track header? Or how do you do it? - You say you "insert" this is, is this the same as what I call dragging to the track header? So after you "open" an FX, which you will tell me how you do it - thank you, you then "open" an FX within this already "opened" FX?

"But if it works, great." - Ah yes, but knowing WHY I can make it work as opposed to the comments you have made always makes me a little unsure if I've grasped the "correct" end of the stick! I have come across items within Vegas that would suggest them following a path of reason and logic - but sometimes .. just sometimes . ..

* Pan Crop Locked Synch cursor not RAM Preview Building - 2 frame stumble.

* Locked Synch on the Text Editor not .. . er . .. locking synch to timeline

* Replacing Media directly from the timeline.

So, Spot, when I'm on a quest to understand something, it is often driven by a wish to ascertain the logic to allow me to apply this to similar functions. Yes, I can drag and drop FXs to individual events. Yes, I can copy paste attributes. However, wanting to "apply" a home-grown FX package - in this case a CC profile - to a Track Header I was having difficulty. The "crucial" piece of information that I was lacking - and have just stumbled on - was that, and unlike just dragging an FX to an Event OR paste attributes with Track Headers I have to apply a Sony FX first, then I can apply my own home-grown FX package - do you now see the difference?

Best regards,

Grazie

... you can save a complete chain with all the settings in one operation? I mean, whitout having to save each FX individually?!

Holy... I feel like I must RTFM again now...
All this time I've lost... it's good to know now, but at the same time...
