Cubase 5: Can I copy Virus Automation?

[danbeaulieu]

I have a track with a decent amount of automation and now the virus audio driver will NOT load... no matter what I do.

Here's the option Im left with. I can remove the virus instrument save and close. Open up the project again add the virus instrument and it works... except I loose my automation.

Is there a way I can save this automation and reapply it to the new virus or am I stuck doing all the automatons over again?

From my digging I think you should be able to open up another project in Cubase and drag and drop the automation from your existing project to the new one.

I'll give that a shot.

It worked.

With my original project still opened I initialized a new empty project, loaded the virus. Then went back to the original project and copied the entire Virus folder track. Then using the new project like Notepad I pasted the data there for safe keeping.

I removed the virus track from my original project saved and closed. Opened the original back up loaded virus and pasted my data from my "notepad" project.

Thanks!

I just had this problem as well... why does this happen? I lost edits I made to my patches as well.. is this fixed in OS 4.x?
