If this is a user error, Mea culpa.But I don’t think so. I noticed weird behaviour compared to pre 1.4.4 in standalone. Please try to reproduce. I have noticed copy/paste problems with other functions, but that’s for a later time...
From the manual: To copy and paste selected events:
1. To copy the selected events, press SHIFT + Pad 11 (COPY).
2. If you want to cut the selected events before pasting them, press SHIFT + Pad 9 (CLEAR) to
delete the original events.
3. To paste them, press SHIFT + Pad 12 (PASTE)
this is page 155 from the last manual available. Too much that would take place here, so you can look it up. Most important in what follows is: if no event is selected all displayed events will be affected. if no event is selected all displayed events will be affected. no event is selected all displayed events will be affected. can copy events from one pattern to another, select pattern you want to copy, select the pattern you wan to copy to, then paste.
Now to try to reproduce, and use the same pads to be sure, but it’s the same with others too, just for ease of troubleshooting. You can always try it with other pads afterwards.
Make a group, make a simple pattern of 2 pads like kick and hihat. Mine are kick on 1 and hat on 4. Push stop, click pattern and make a second one, click pattern 1 again, and click events. Remember from the manual”if no event is selected all displayed events will be affected.” So don’t select any events. Push copy (shift+11) in pattern 1, the last used pad, in my case is pad nr 4, the hihat. Now go to the second pattern, and press paste (shift + 11). You will see that the pasted events will start on pad 4, and trigger different sounds than intended. Now delete pattern 2. Click pattern 1 again. Push events. Push pad mode. Click or select the first pad. Make 2nd pattern. Go to pattern 1 events, nothing selected, push copy, paste and the pattern will be correct.
Either I’m having dementia, but it always was paste and the events were copied, no matter what pad was selected. No mention of that in the manual, as it said above:”if no event is selected, all displayed events will be affected, just press copy and in the next pattern paste” it was not dependent on what pad was last selected in the 1st pattern.
now next try this, after making the 1st pattern, select or push the 1st pad. (Kick) press events, and push select followed by all. Check to be sure all events are selected. Go to pattern 3, press paste and...only the events from the 1st pad will be pasted.
so conclusion , events are broken, I have used it 1000 times and if nothing was selected I could just copy and paste to another pattern, same as if I selected all. Now the 1st way will misplace the events if another pad was selected last in pattern 1, the second way that should copy “all” only pastes the last selected/ illuminated pad. Also I have noticed that sometimes when pasting, when select is on, the length will change if the cursor isn’t at the start. This is all with patterns for sure, not clips.
pls tell me it’s a bug and I’m not going crazy...
thank you all.
