RICHARD HUTCHINS 34 Posted April 3, 2019 Ive just bought AD2 for Cakewalk, and so..I drag a drum beat onto the track, fine so far. It last for 4 bars only so I need to extend it to the whole song; I assumed it was a simple task just copy and paste it, but I cannot for the life of me get the new pasted in beat to line up and play in time with the one that starts the song. Tried everything, please help a newbie!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lee D 86 Posted April 3, 2019 Not sure what you're doing wrong. But if you highlight the clip and then hit Ctrl + L, it will turn it into a Groove Clip. Then you can just drag the right edge to extend it over and over again. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RICHARD HUTCHINS 34 Posted April 3, 2019 Thanks Lee, will try that sounds like a plan! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Larry Jones 170 Posted April 3, 2019 When you're copying and pasting the Addictive Drums clip, make sure you are pasting it right on the beginning of a measure. Many of those clips end an eighth or a sixteenth before the visual end of the measure and if you butt them right up to each other your timing will be off. Cakewalk will help you -- set the "snap" value to whole notes before you start pasting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cactus Music 1,576 Posted April 3, 2019 The groove clip looping is the fastest way To make this go faster I zoom out. Then you can drag it 150 measures in no time 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RICHARD HUTCHINS 34 Posted April 4, 2019 Thanks everyone, it is starting to make sense now, I'll try it both ways. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lapasoa 111 Posted April 4, 2019 For me both ways are OK. But copy and paste has some issues if, after copy and paste, you wanto to delete some measures at the end. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
