Is it possible to assign more than one FX chain from the "Filter Packages" folder to a specific media or track?
I've tried to add a second FX chain on a video track, but it doesn't seem to work.
It's not possible. Adding an FX Chain will delete any existing FX in the pipeline.
AFAIK, only one chain per event, track, preview or master bus. A few work- a-rounds though include putting a secondary chain on a nested event that already has a native chain or automate plugs in the track or master chains. Pre-rendering to a new track is another option and then add another chain to that track.
I do not recall max number of plug-in can be in a chain, but it is many.
Hello, VEGAS Pro's FX package appling mode is a illogical "replace" way. Applying FX package will delete all orignal plugin-chains.
So does VEGAS Pro's "copy-pastet-attribute". It will also delete all orignal plugin-chains.
Now there are two troublesome ways for your need:
1. Use Vegasaur's "created nested project from selected track" to turn your track to a .veg file. Than add your second FX chain to this .veg file.
2. Add your second FX chain to a empty event. Use Vegasaur's "Effects - Apply/Remove FX" to copy the empty event's FX chain to your video track. Vegasaur's "Effects - Apply/Remove FX" will not delete all orignal plugin-chains.
1 IF you want create nested project - you don't need Vegasaur. I'm using Vegas since Vegas 6 - and you ALWAYS could and can import another vegas project as nested project on the timeline. Just drug & drop it from any Windows' window.
2 IF you HAVE Vegasaur - then read effects with apply/remove effect form "EVENT A", than add to to event B, than read from Event C, and add to EVENT B... and so on... I do it all the time))
