Sadly, I don’t think there -is- a good all-purpose answer. The problem, having fought with this many times, is that you get 4 songs into such a project, with a template that you intend to use for all songs to have a cohesive sound and then on song 5 discover a different way of doing things that you realise should be applied to all songs in the batch. OOPS.
OR, you can go old school and just decide that you’re going to stick with your original template come heck or high water… hey it worked for Elvis, right? Limitations are good, right?
I drool over video/photo editing software which have dynamic presets. ie… you create FX/layer presets that you can update and they auto-magically migrate to all documents that utilise them. I get hot just thinking about it.
