RE: How to Copy VST Animation in Cubase
ha!... done it!.. you got me curious, so i had to try it....it works in sx2 anyways - it's a bit fiddly but this worked for me to transfer an automation parameter from the vsti NEPHETON (AC LEVEL) in Song-1(.cpr 1), to vsti PHOSYCON (bd level) in Song-2 (.cpr 2)
first i created some automation data for nepheton, lasso'd it with the arrow tool - then EDIT/GROUP to group the nodes together
ok, then create a spare audio track
to drag/copy controller data hold down SHIFT/ALT and then drag/drop
so drag-drop the automation data from the VSTi controller lane to the Audio track VOUME lane (first child below audio track when opened out)
ok now we have a copy of the controller lane data for the vsti on the dummy audio track VOLUME controller-lane
ok now open the new song... they should open together, and each has a little icon on the top/left which is the ACTIVATE icon - only one song can be active
ok... activate the new song and create a dummy audio track - open it's VOLUME controller lane below
Now, RE-activate the other song from which you want to copy the data - lasso the COPY of the controller data on the AUDIO track & EDIT/COPY
Now, activate the other song - select the audio track VOLUME controller lane - EDIT/PASTE
YAHOO!!!!
NOW you can lasso the controller data added to the new song in the audio-track controller lane and drag it to the automation lane of the required vst-instrument - make sure to select the required controller in the vsti lane BEFORE dragging it across and dropping it into the vsti lane
sorted!!

I had an idea for a script once. It's basically Jaws except when the guys in the boat are going after Jaws, they look around and there's an even bigger Jaws. The guys have to team up with Jaws to get Bigger Jaws.... I call it... Big Jaws!!!
