Have used a lot of input and have a series of steps I now follow for processing, which include some variants depending on subject and all with slightly different parameters.  I have a set of icons down the right side of the screen and have slowly improve the set of icons using the final sets from one target for use in the next target.  I just rename the project.

What is the most efficient way do do all this?

Hi Jerry,

You can select a group of process icons and then save them all to an xpsm file (right click on blank window region>Process Icons>Save Process Icons).  You can then load the icons from the file or merge them into a new project with right click>Process Icons>Load Process Icons or Merge Process Icons.

I'm not 100% sure I correctly interpreted the question you were asking but HTH  :)

Cheers,
Rick.

Thanks Rick, this is what I needed.  I have sets of icons like for noise reduction that I can save separately as they are tweeked and load as needed now.
