Copy and Paste into a new sequence


Recommended Posts

Posted

I have tried to copy and paste certain parts of one sequence into a new sequence with no luck.  Does anyone know if you can copy from one song sequence into a nother new sequence?

 

Thanks

There shouldn't be any problem with copying from one sequence to another.

 

What exactly occurred when you tried? Did you get an error message? Or was it just that nothing happened?

 

If you got an error message, what did it say, exactly, word for word, in full?

Make sure you have selected to paste by time, not by cell, just in case you don't have identical timing marks.

I do it all the time.  Because of the way I export from SuperStar, I do a copy & paste of the entire sequence from one sequence to another.  What are you doing, and what kind of a failure do you get?

 

What I do is this:

1) Open exported SuperStar sequence.

2) Create a new sequence using my standard configuration.

3) Click on the first cell of the first channel in the SSE export.

4) Move the the very bottom last cell of the SSE export and Shift-Click there.

5) Select Copy (or CTRL-C).

6) Move the sequence created in step 2.

7) Click on the first cell of the first channel (in my case it is in track 2, but that would not be the case for most people).

8) Select Paste (or CTRL-V).

9) Wait a while.

10) Done.

Do you have a clipboard unlocked?

If no clipboards are unlocked you can"t copy. At least thats what happens on my machine.

That's strange, I've never had that issue before. I can copy and paste from sequence to sequence no problem

Probably trying to copy from a ccr to a regular channel. Try de-grouping first.

I get one channel to copy and then paste after that I can not copy a second channel.  Nothing is grouped not a CCR to reular.  Clipboard is unlocked.  The original just freezes can not rename anything it is just frozen.  can not even repaste into the new sequence. 

 

I even tried putting my fist through the monitor.

I would reinstall the software and see if the issue is resolved. Be sure, just in case, to back up all your sequences to another location. Normally the install won't impact the existing but just in case...

I sometimes get only the first line. Close and open the sequence editor.
