Moving Sequence Data
Hi.........
Managed to stump myself today. Perhaps someone here has a suggestion.
Here's the situation…
I'm developing a sequence with several sections. The other day, I created a new section which I later decided didn't really fit with the rest of the piece. Since I liked what was there, I wanted to extract just that section and save it someplace else for possible future use.
I was HOPING to find a way to simply copy the content from the TO and paste it into a corresponding number and type of tracks in a new sequence… which works for MIDI and audio data, but doesn't bring VI or plug-in info along.
I was able to create one clipping for the audio & MIDI data and another for each VI (which captures plugs, patches and settings) and move it over in multiple steps that way. I also know I could duplicate the entire sequence and then delete everything else but the specific section. Just wondering if there's a faster way to do it—possibly in one step. (?!)
Thanks in advance for any ideas you'd care to share.

Re: Moving Sequence Data
Yeah, you can select the new section and drag it to the Chunk window creating a new Chunk.
Then delete the old part.

Re: Moving Sequence Data
Thanks, Michael. That works for MIDI data, but doesn't bring along instrument tracks… unless I'm doing something wrong.

Re: Moving Sequence Data
Are the Instruments Tracks in a V-Rack? Then they are already in a separate Chunk, and accessible to the new Sequence containing the MIDI tracks.Rick Cornish wrote:Thanks, Michael. That works for MIDI data, but doesn't bring along instrument tracks… unless I'm doing something wrong.

No they are not in a v-rack. Sounds like that might be another way to skin this cat. Thanks, Bayswater.Are the Instruments Tracks in a V-Rack? Then they are already in a separate Chunk, and accessible to the new Sequence containing the MIDI tracks.

Re: Moving Sequence Data
Barring any other magic solutions, I agree with b.g. "Duplicate Sequence" and trim away what's not needed.
