Import Audio Channels from another Song? How to??

Hello,
I recorded a couple of songs with a real drumset. I mixed the first song and created a lot of channel->bus->aux->bus routing for the drumset with compressors, eqs, space designers etc. So all my drums running thru the busses, fx, etc, to one final bus. I used 12 audio tracks, 11 busses and 5 auxes to do that. The drumsound is quite nice, and because we recorded all songs with the same drumset and miking, I want to have that routing in all the other songs (arranges) too, where we have already recorded all the different guitars and stuff.
Here is my problem:
How to copy that set of audio-tracks, busses and auxes to the other songs???
Saving all channels as channel strips and reload them in the other songs is a lot of work, because it doesent remember the levels and pannings, and in most of the other songs I have not all the needed auxes and busses in the audio-environment. sometimes, they are already used by other instruments (guitars, etc...)
I tried to simply copy and paste the desired channels (audio objects) but than they have not the right plugins and settings: they keep their "old" settings from that song I want to copy the drums-channels into.
I tried to delete all these objects before (Audio Track 12 to 24, busses 1 to 8 and 17 to 19, auxes 1 to 5) in the destination-song, but they still have the "old" settings after beeing copied.
Logic manual: Aha! Import environment!!
I copied all the desired drums-channels to a new layer, saved that song.
Opened the destination song, options->import environment->layer...
Uups: Still the wrong settings: I dont want DeEssers on my toms!!!
I tried to import environment->merge, but then i got really big chaos. Lots of useless channels, still the wrong settings...
I clicked undo:
Uuuuups!!! All my channels are gone, the whole arrangement is set to "No Output" objects... :-((
Tried again with import envirmonment->update: less chaos, but still the wrong settings. DeEssers on Toms. Grrrr!
About two hours passed now without success just to do that simple thing: How can i copy my audio-channels to the other songs???
any help is greatly appreciated!
thanx!

Thanx to the northpole for reply!
I think the folders only contains audio/midi regions but no information about the assigned environment objects like busses, auxes, etc...
I dont want to copy the audio regions, just the mixer setup with the specific channels and busses.
regards!

  • Imported audio is faster than song, how do I slow it's playback

    Greetings Apple Discussions:
    I have GarageBand 2. I have imported an audio (human voice) file which plays at a faster tempo or rate than the song I am mixing. Is there any way to slow it down to match the rate or tempo of my song. The song is 120 BPM.
    I have tried to edit it in Soundtrack, to no avail.
    Thanks
    Aubrey

    Not an easy thing to do. Here's something you can try, but don't get your expectations too high.
    Figure out what the BPM of your audio file is. Set the GarageBand song to that tempo. Import that audio file. Press control-option-g and then click anywhere in the timeline. Now set your song back the the tempo you actually want.

  • Is there a way to import a track from another song?

    This is easy in ProTools, is there a simple method for Logic?

    Open the first song then the second without closing the first.
    Select the track that you want to copy from the first song and press Cmd+C (or choose Copy from the edit menu) then go into the other song and paste it!
    cheers

    How do I save and import my bookmarks from another hard drive? When I try to open the installed Firefox on the old drive, it (obviously) opens a browser from the new main drive, free of bookmarks. Is there a way I can save the bookmarks on the old drive without opening a browser?
    The guts of my computer were rearranged and I got a new main hard drive. My old one is still in there and I can get stuff from it, but when I go to the Mozilla folder on the old one, I can't figure out if there's anything I can do to get all my bookmarks from that drive to my new one, where Firefox is newly installed.

    If you open Firefox then Firefox will always use the default profile folder as found via profiles.ini on your system drive.
    You either need to import the file in your current default profile or copy the file to your current profile folder while Firefox is closed.
    Firefox 3 stores the bookmarks and the browser history in [http://kb.mozillazine.org/places.sqlite places.sqlite] and no longer creates an HTML backup by default.
    There are also (five) JSON backups in the bookmarkbackups folder within the Firefox profile folder.
    You can either copy the file places.sqlite to your [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] or import the most recent JSON backup from the bookmarkbackups folder of that old profile.

  • How do I import email messages from another server?

    Heya,
    So I can't figure out how to import mail messages from another server into this one? I had [email protected] pointing to the old one, when I repointed it obviously all my email "disappeared" because there is none on the new server. So how do I move it from the old server to the new one? Usually I'd just drag and drop the email message files over FTP but SLS doesn't seem to give me permission to do that on this one.
    Thanks!

  • Importing calendar data from another [dead] computer

    My G5 recently died on me, and I'm currently using an older computer (eMac) that's still running 10.4. But I still have access to my G5's hard drive through a FireWire connection. What I'm trying to find a way to do is to reload all my G5 iCal data into my eMac's iCal app. Obviously, I didn't know my computer was going to die on me, so I didn't export an iCal file beforehand. So, assuming all my old calendar data is still on my G5 hard drive, what files will I need to copy over to my eMac? And will there be any complications bringing iCal info from 10.5 over to 10.4?
    Thanks a lot for any help.

    If the problem persists, you'll probably have to make another apple id, it wont take off any games or music or apps or anything you've bought it will all stay there, i have two apple id's and i don't have a problem with anything.

    Hello All
    I would like to import a table from one database to another using DB toolbox.

  • How do I import audio files from itunes to my project?

    I know this could be very easy, I've imported music files from disc to projects before, but they keep going off line. So I want to find out an easier/better process to import music files from itunes into my FCP projects.
    G5: 1G,   Mac OS X (10.4)  

    #5 Imported music from CD or iTunes
    Shane's Stock Answer #5:
    To get music into FCP, it needs to be an AIFF file at 48khz, 16 bit stereo. So if you want a song from a CD, you go into the iTunes Preferences and set this up under the IMPORTING tab:
    File > preferences > importing > import using - AIFF encoder > Setting - Custom
    Sample Rate - 48.000 kHz
    Sample size - 16 bit
    Channels - Stereo
    If you have an mp3 that you want to use, then you can convert it thru iTunes as well.
    If the piece of music you want to use is something you purchased thru iTunes, I'm afraid I can't help you there. There are copywrite issues that prevent files from being converted into the format that FCP can recognize.

  • How to import a clip from another Imovie movie ?

    Well I found where those clips were trashed too. Its not the iMovie trash can as indicated by the help text! Its the user trash can. Here is how I found my clips in case this is useful for anyone else.

    To see the total space taken up by these files I did:
    find . -name '*.dv' -exec ls -l {} \; | grep Trash | awk 'BEGIN { space = 0}; { space += $5}; END { print "total space",space}'
    total space 1794600000
    So I just have to empty the main trash in order to recover from my first copy/paste effort to move clips from one project to another. BTW is there a way to copy them to the clips pane and not the timeline?

  • How to I import a folder from another FCP Project?

    I come from the Avid world where you can import a bin from one project directly into another. Is is possible to do this in FCP? I have this one folder
    with all my music in it which I created in the first project and I'm trying to import this music folder into different projects.
    Should I have created a project called music and just open that project everytime I wanted to use music for different projects?
    Patch2000

    I have this one folder
    with all my music in it which I created in the first
    project and I'm trying to import this music folder
    into different projects.
    I think you should simply organize your Music into a Folder on your computer. When you're doing a project that needs music... point to/import from this folder. No need to import every piece of music you have in your library.
    You can audition your music outside of FCP then import what you need. It's the same with Motion Backgrounds too.
