▪ When you paste a selection of Groups onto an existing Group, the pasted Groups replace
that Group and the following Groups. Example: If you paste the Groups A1 and B1 onto the
Group E2, the duplicates of A1 and B1 will replace the Groups E2 and F2, respectively (if,
say, F2 didn’t exist it is automatically created).
If you want to duplicate a Group more than once, just keep on choosing Paste from the
context menu on other Groups: the source Group stays in the clipboard, ready for the
next use!
When you copy/paste Sounds or Groups in the software, the entire content of the copied
Sound(s) or Group(s) is pasted, including their events and Patterns. Notably, pasting a Sound
into a Sound slot of a different Group will create the needed Patterns if they do not exist, and
replace the events for that Sound slot in an existing Patterns.
In the sentence above, “existing Patterns” means the Patterns with the same IDs (i.e.
the same position in the Pattern List) as in the source Group. Example: If the source
Sound contains events in Pattern 1, 2, and 3 of its Group and you paste that Sound into
another Group that only has Pattern 1 and 4, Pattern 2 and 3 will be automatically cre-
ated to host the events of the pasted Sound.
You can also duplicate a Group in Ideas view and Arranger view by clicking the Group
slot while holding the [Alt] key (or [Ctrl] key on PC), and dragging the mouse. After the
mouse is released a duplicate copy of the Group is created.
Duplicating Groups on Your Controller
On your controller in Control mode, do the following to copy a Group from one Group button to
another:
1. Press and hold DUPLICATE.
2. If you want to duplicate a Group including its Patterns, enable the +EVENT option (But-
ton 5).
3. Press the Group button of the Group you want to copy.
The Group button starts blinking.
