Is there any way to easily move an instrument "group"
or a bunch of zones into an existing instrument
without having to re-create the instrument by
importing sound files and re-setting all of the loop
points for each zone?
 
The application would be this - say I've got 4
different .exs instruments that i'd like to blend into
one instrument and then use key switching to control
which group (or set of groups) is allowed to play.
 
So say i have an instrument of Violin attacks and an
instrument of Violin sustains and i'd like to merge
them into one instrument...is there any easy way to do
this?
 
Hope i'm not being too redundant, just trying to be
clear with my question.
 
thanks.

Yes, in an instrument editor that's editing the instrument you want 
to copy from, select the group, then choose "select zones pointing 
to group(s)" under the edit menu, then choose copy, then switch to 
the instrumnet editor that has the instrument that you want to copy 
into, and choose paste. Voila!

wow, thanks!  you've saved me countless hours of pain.  i figured 
emagic would have a way to do this.  was right under my nose.
