Question by foxesinfiction: How do you apply a single VST or effect to multiple channels in Ableton Live 6?

Pretty much said it.
How would I go about applying a single effect of VST such as reverb to multiple channels, as opposed to having to add the effect individually to every single channel (tends to bog down CPU usage)? Thanks a lot!

there's no way of doing it unless you use the vst effect as a send, just drag it to the send/return tab and open the send knob on the channel you'd like to use that effect.
For vst instruments just duplicate your channel if u are using the same synth more than once
