DP8.07 Paste Repeat still Merge Repeat

Post by frankf »

Paste Repeat was not fixed in 8.07. It still merges the MIDI data instead of overwriting for me. Can anyone confirm?
Thanks

Paste Repeat doesn't appear to do anything on my rig. I'm not sure I'm using it correctly. I've not used that function before.

Yes, confirmed here. Paste Repeat merges the new MIDI notes with the existing notes in the target area.

But hadn't they confirmed it before? Oh well, maybe they'll fix it this time.

I hope so. Work around is to delete all data in the region before using paste repeat or past multiple. PITA.

Can anyone confirm that this has been fixed in DP9? (Or not)

Paste repeat and merge repeat still do the same thing (if that's what you're asking)

The MOTU confirmed bug in DP8.07 was: invoking Paste Repeat instead invoked Merge Repeat. In other words, Paste Repeat did not overwrite the data in the time range selection with data in the copy buffer but instead merged it.
