Guest guest Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 Just wondering if I'm doing something wrong while writing my music sequences, whenever I take a section of on/off commands and copy them (for example a section of 4 on and 4 off) , then I go to "paste multiple" and choose "to end of sequence" it always adds one additional on command to the first on command all the way to the end of the sequence?Try to visualize Copy: on-off-on-off-on-off-on-offWhen its pasted this is what I get: on-on-off-on-off-on-off-onI have tried this on different songs and with different sequences and it seems to be a constant problem........is it the operator or the program?Any help with this would be appreciated.Kim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 Kim,Are you using the "select" box to select your blocks then copy then paste? Just a thought.Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 Tom,Yes I am using the select box when I select the section I want to copy, even though it did take a few times of deleting my selections before I finally figured that one out!!Kim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 Hummmm,I just tried what you did and it copied ok. Not sure what else to do. Sorry about that. Maybe someone else here will be of some help. But I am curious about that. It's a first I have heard (reading the past LOR posts) about and I'm creating a list of all LOR problems/fixes for future reference.Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 Have you tried pasting a single paste instead of multiple? If so, does it work correctly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 Hi,When you copy, make sure that you copy ON-OFF-ON-OFF not ON-OFF-ON-OFF-ON Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 Tom,Single pasting works great without any problem, it only gives me problems with the paste to end of sequence. And as you know from writing these sequences anything that makes the work a bit less time consuming is something I would like to use whenever possible.Kim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 Dan,I'm positive that I am copying a equal set of commands both on and off and I am not pasting over any existing programming. I even tried setting the number of times thats usually on 1 when you open this window to 0 even though this should not have any effect when using the "repeat to end of sequence command" and still had the same problem. I have tried on a number of different songs that had nothing in common with each other, meaning each song was set up separately without importing any data from a previous song.Kim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 Hi,I want to make sure I understand, you end up with something like:"ON-OFF-ON-OFF-ON-ON-OFF-ON-OFF-ON-ON-OFF-ON-OFF-ON-ON-OFF..... "The only way I could reproduce it was as shown in the little demo. You will need Flash to watch it.Click on LittleDemo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just spent 5 mins making a couple of .jpg images to illustrate the point. Your "flash"y explanation is soooooo much better.......showoff Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 Dan,Very awesome demo, I will try it at home tonight. I was moving the copied portion with my cursor to the new start point then clicking paste and I see that you were not doing that you are simply clicking paste. Could well be my problem. I will let you know tomorrow how it worked. Thank you so much Kim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 Martin,I appreciate your help as well, now that we see the awesome tutoral that Dan has developed we may all have a few questions just so we can see the visualization.Kim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 Dan,That is a very nice program! I could use it for a ton of stuff.Charles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 17, 2006 Share Posted February 17, 2006 Thanks all,Problem solved as Dan suggested I may literally have been biting off more that I could chew...:XI was copying 4 on commands and 4 off commands but should have been copying 3 on commands and 4 off commands to paste to the end of the sequence. Seems simple until brain lock and fatigue sets in.Kim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
