Copy Track Names using a Clipping

Post by mmestek »

When I create a clipping of a MIDI track and then bring that clipping into a new subsequence, only the MIDI data is copied. Is there a way to also copy the track name and output?

That's strange... Track names are part of the copied tracks and they display normally.

How are you creating and bringing back your clippings?

Thank you for your reply FMiguelez. I found the problem.
I was dragging the clipping into another MIDI track and it kept the name and output of that track. Now, when I drag the clipping to a blank section in the track overview, a new track is created with the name and output of the original track clipping.
