Possible to have "Completely Deactivate ALL plugins in project" command in future update?

Right now, the only available options in macro or PLE only involve bypassing the inserts, which does not TRULY deactivate the plugins.

Activating “Constrain Delay Compensation” only turns off certain plugins, but not others.

I’m on Windows 11. I also tried selecting all tracks, go to the MixConsole, held down Alt + Shift, click on deactivate, but only the track I’m on, deactivates. Alt+Shift does NOT work on multiple tracks when trying to completely deactivate plugins on mass.

Would it be possible to have a “Completely Deactivate ALL plugins in project” command in the next update or future sooner updates?

One of Cubase’s greatest weaknesses in unloading of memory. Sure, 3rd-party plugin vendors can be to blame, but Cubase could have its own “sandboxing” mechanism or something in a similar vein.

Here’s one PLE I wrote to turn on/off meters:

Note that it’s called “enable” / “disable”, not “deactivate” or “off”. See if that works in case you haven’t tried it yet.

DUDE! YOU’RE A FREAKIN GENIUS!

Now THIS works! But instead going by track name, I altered the Event Target Filters to “Track, whichever is Selected”, which is exactly what I need for my own uses.

Finally with this, I can more or less completely deactivate ALL plugins in any project.

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!
