Working with Multisetups
A Multisetup is a “snapshot” of the current Emulator X settings. Multisetups store the
preset, volume, pan position, and output bus routings for 64 MIDI channels along with
the Global Tempo and the three Aux Send destinations.
Saving FX & Multisetups
It is important to realize what data is stored in a multisetup when saving banks. In
addition to Volume, Pan, and Preset choices for each channel, the Initial Controllers,
FX Aux 1, Aux 2, and Aux 3 are stored with the multisetup. The send level for each
preset to each Aux bus is stored in the preset data. Remember to save the bank
whenever you have made changes that you want to keep.
VSTi Multisetups
A multisetup for your VSTi is stored in your Cubase project and will be loaded when
the project is opened. This multisetup overrides whatever default multisetup may have
been saved if the bank was opened in standalone mode. If you wish to store extra
multisetups you may do by using the Multisetup menu on the toolbar.
To Save the Current Multisetup
1. Set up all the multisetup parameters the way you want them.
2. Select Save from the Multisetup window on the toolbar.
3. Choose a name and number for the multisetup. Changing the number allows you
to place the Multisetup anywhere you want in the list.
4. Press OK to save the Multisetup.
5. Save the Bank, otherwise nothing will be saved.
To Restore a Multisetup
1. Open the multisetup folder in the Tree. Any multisetups contained in the bank will
be listed below the folder.
2. Left-click on the desired multisetup icon in the tree and drag it over the Emulator
X icon above the tree. This multisetup will be restored.
3. Alternate Method - Right-click over the Multisetup icon in the Tree and choose

To Export the Multisetup as a New Bank
This feature lets you save only the presets and samples you need as a new bank.
1. Set up all the multisetup parameters the way you want them.
2. Select Export from the Multisetup window on the toolbar. The popup “Save As”
dialog box appears prompting you for the save location.

Cancel to cancel the operation.
To Rename a Multisetup

pop-up menu.
