Cubase 15 Try it →Watch full video →Cubase · Feb 2026

Demo summary

Greg shows how to select multiple drum tracks and add a single Reverb Effects Track, then adjust the individual send levels for each drum.

Step-by-step

Select all desired drum tracks in the project
Right-click on the selected tracks
Select 'Add Effects Track to Selected Tracks'
Choose the specific effect, such as RoomWorks reverb
Navigate to the 'Sends' section for an individual track
Adjust the send level slider to blend the amount of effect for that specific track

Options

Adjust individual send levels to send more or less signal to the shared effect (e.g., more reverb on snare than kick)

Tips

Use a single reverb instance for multiple tracks to save on audio performance/CPU usage
Send multiple tracks to the same reverb to create a sense of cohesion and make them sound like they are in the same room

Highlights

“using effect sense for reverbs is great”
