A lot of repeating component structures

Hi

I'm building an audio matrix. The circuit consists of 3 main building blocks: the input buffer, the output buffer and an audio switch. I just need a lot of them.

Is there a way to draw the schematic for it without doing the actual copy-pasting yourself. I'm thinking if there was a way to define a module and I could repeat that module...

Any help is most appreciated.

Marc, You could create the consist of parts as one library item.  Then when you add that item to your schematic you will get all the parts for that block.  The only downside is that I am not sure if you will be able to move the footprints of the individual parts within that library item when it is placed on your PCB without going back and editing that library item.  I have never tried this so I am not sure.  Hope that helps.

Could you give me a hint how to do that?  :-\

I am not very Eagle-fluent  ;D

BTW: I'm running Eagle 6.0.0.0 Light (free version).

I was under the impression that a 'consists of' part is not just another library part.
If it is, I can not find a way to draw existing symbols on there...
I can do Add Symbol which brings up an empty symbol dialog but I see no way to import from other libraries...
