Import CWB into session?

[Jono J Grant]

Hi, wondering if there is a way to import data from a cakewalk bundle into an existing session?

Just to add to @Lord Tim's solution...

If you first save the tracks from the old project as a track template,  insert the track template  into the new project, then copy the tracks from the old project on to the tracks you created via the template, you'll preserve any automation/routing from the old project.

The selection in the old project will be preserved during the process, so:

In the old project:
1. Select the tracks you want to transfer over
2. Save as a track template

In the new project:
3. Insert the track template you saved in step 2

In the old project:
4. Copy Special

In the new project:

5. Click on the first track inserted by the track template to make it the active track, and make sure the Now Time is at time zero
6. Paste Special

In some cases, you might get extra blank tracks created at the end of your tracks - you can just delete these.

Thanks for the info!

I was hoping there was something like Pro Tools "Import session data", which I believe allows you to add one sessions' data to another.

if you only need the track content and none of the FX etc you can just drag a regular cwp project from the file explorer into the project and in will import the tracks (with their names) into your current project.
