I've seen the same behavior as well on the Mac OS X version of 5

I've just noticed that this also happens with copy and pasting a bunch of fx from one track to another, the order gets reversed on the destination track as well.

Testing 5.11 and this is not fixed entirely. Selecting the plugins, ctrl+c and then ctrl+v on the new track copies the fx in the correct order but if you right click on the selection to copy and then right click in the new track to paste they are inserted in the wrong order.

I cannot reproduce the issue you describe with 5.11.

For instance in a new Session with two Tracks, with the first containing a-Compressor, a-Delay and a-EQ post fader in that order. If I select them in the reverse order, i.e eq, delay, compressor and then right click and copy and paste to the second track then the processing order is correct (comp -> delay -> eq)

Perhaps there is some detail I am missing, so can you please provide a more explicit set of instructions to reproduce.

Just as you did really, add some plugins to a track prefader, select them by clicking the first plugin (or last, don't seem to make much difference) and then shift clicking on the last plugin, right click on the last plugin and copy. Right click on in the prefader fx section of the new track and paste.

I've just noticed that pasting them post fader seems to add them in the correct order but if you paste pre fader on the same track they get put in the wrong order.

I can confirm that copy and pasting pre-fader does cause them to be added in the incorrect order with 5.11 and master (5.11.144)

Subject: [PATCH] Fix copying and pasting processors/plugins pre-fader

When processor index == 0 Route::before_processor_for_index() would always
return an empty processor sptr that resulted in trying to insert before the
Trim processor rather than before the first processor that is displayed to the
user (Fader/Amp).

I uploaded a patch that should fix the issue with copy and pasting pre-fader. I'm not that familiar with that part of the code so I'll wait for some feedback before committing.

I noticed a few other issues but I don't think there are any regressions after applying the patch.
