It would be nice to be able to copy the plugin settings from layer 1 of say, an 8-layer (PolyBox-driven) patch to the other layers. Here's the use case.
Omnisphere is (so oddly) single-threaded. I love that Unify gets around this by using PolyBox. So now I'm creating 8-layer patches of some of my favourite Omnisphere sounds. I create the first patch, all is well. Now I want to switch to another sound. I either have to go into each of the 8 layers to manually do this, which is very tedious, or delete each layer manually (is there a CTRL-select, delete so I can delete multiple layers at once?) and rebuild.
If I could copy the plugin settings from layer 1, then SHIFT-select all the remaining layers and paste, then all the other layers would have the same sound.

This is basically why we have the option to Option/Alt-click on the INIT button, to delete all INST layers except INST1, and the "Dup nx next MIDI ch" options on the layer ops menu, which duplicates INST1 (incluiding all plug-in states) 1, 3, 7, or 15 times. If you don't want the consecutive MIDI channels, you may have to change those back manually (although consecutive MIDI channels is what you get by default in Omnisphere multis).

Well look at that, you're so right of course. Thanks! This helps speed up my workflow a lot. Could you add that in the pop-up tip when you hover over INIT, to show that Alt/Opt deletes all but the first?

I was trying to remember how to do this last night. Thanks for the reminder. I was alt-clicking each layer. This is much quicker. I did it a number of times while creating my Waves track.
