horizontal copying of midiphrases problem

horizontal copying of midiphrases problem

hi, i hope you can help me!

when i copy a midiphrase horizontally to another track, how can i assign a different instrument to it?this because the new miditrack refers to the same instrument which is assigned to the original miditrack.

in the microscope edit section i can assign a different miditrack to my copied midiphrase, but then the original miditrack refers to that instrument aswell.

please help! thx phil

When you use the copy command it inserts the same phrase not a duplicate of it so if you edit either of them you are basically editing the same one.

What you want to do is make the copy then click "edit phrase" on the new copy and then save with a new phrase number and edit that one. This will edit the new phrase and wont touch your original one.

Sorry mate, don't know what I was thinking there.

Look at the phrase number that you want to duplicate to another track.
Press song button until you see F3 "Phrase List" and click it.
Select the Phrase number you want in the list the hit F3 "Util Menu" then select "Duplicate" and hit F8.
It would have now made a duplicate phrase at the end of your phrase list.
Go back to song mode, select the track you want the new one on and click F1 "insert" and select the new duplicate phrase..
Now edit it.. lol

Sorry about earlier was going from memory and it's crap in the morning. =]
