CUT'n PASTE BUGS?

CUT'n PASTE BUGS?

2002-05-15 by Stéphane KAY

HI.

I noticed some particularities/(bugs?) with XL-7 1.31 These are some about
cut/paste features.
Maybe there is something that I didn't understand. But If not, I think that
these following points should be fixed for the next OS release.

#1 Pattern/COPY TRACK TO CLIPBOARD
   -> This is copying the "score" of your pattern.
:( -> The preset of the copyied track is not pasted. The previous one is
kept?!

#2. Pattern/PASTE CLIPBOARD TO TRACK
    -> It is "cutting" the track on the clipboard
:(  -> You can paste only ONE time.

>>>Pattern Edit features affect only the MIDI data, and not the Program 
Change messages.  You'll need to assignt eh new Preset manually.  This is 
by far the best course of action for various reasons, just oien of those 
quirks that takes getting used to.  BTW as far as I know most hardware 
sequencers behave this exact same way. <<<

#2. Pattern/PASTE CLIPBOARD TO TRACK
    -> It is "cutting" the track on the clipboard

>>>Umm, in the OS ver 1.31 I use, you can paste as many times as you want. 
 Make sure that when you Cut the track, you only selected the measures you 
NEED to cut.  I believe the default in this screen is 32 measures, which 
since there are only 32 measures in a pattern maximum, would mean you 
could only Paste once. <<<

If I didn't explain this clearly enough, feel free to let me know, glad to 
help out.
