Sending 1 VST Effect across multiple tracks?

Anyone know if its possible to send a VST across multiple tracks?

For example say I have 4 guitar tracks and I want to apply say a cabinet simulation with identical settings to each track, I know I can add the VST to each track individually but can I add it to all for in one command?

Also does this means REAPER would only process one VST instead of four saving my CPU cycles?

Any ideas guys?

OK think I create and FX BUS, and route the dry tracks to that BUS to share the VST FX's :)

EDIT: Yup it works in case anyone wonders! :)

Just create a track and name it FX BUS, then open I/O on the new track and add new receives!
 
Or you can put all the guitar tracks in 1 "folder" and put the FX you want applied to all of them in that folder.
 
OK got the folders working but no idea how to add a global VST to all tracks in folder! :(

Just add the plugin to the parent track. Like this:

Guitars (add FX to this track)
>>gtr1
>>gtr2
>>gtr3
>>gtr4


Also, you don't need to name your bus "FX BUS" you can name it anything you'd like! And, you can create a send/receive by dragging a send slot in the mixer, or the IO button to another track. :)
