    Just curious: why isn’t it an option to select all grooves on the song track and move them 10-20 measures later?

    I don’t that it IS an option. It’s looking to me like it’s maybe not moving everything. Should I not fear that?

    Thanks.

    To select all grooves on the song track, do any of the following:

    • make a left click and drag selection around the grooves
    • right click on an empty part of the song track and select Select All
    • Use keyboard shortcut
      • Alt + A (Mac)
      • Ctrl + A (PC)
    • Select the first grooves, then shift + click the last block

    When you have done this you can move all the blocks as you want to.

    Remember to also move any Tempo and Time Signature changes, if you have any of those.

    I know this is an old thread…  but the reason why that’s not a good solution is because any time signature changes do not move along with the bars when you move them this way.   I just wanted to add 4 bars to my intro and I had to manually delete all the time signature changes and re-add them 4 bars later.   Huge pain in the butt.

    Yes I complete agree with emarinko. Would be great to have this feature

    Agreed.  This really makes the song track useless while composing.

    Hi,

    one way to work around it ( in the case of adding an intro of e.g. 4 Bars) is to go to Edit Time Signature, Select All, Copy, then put the Playhead 4 Bars in and Paste at Playhead.

    BR,

    I’m not sure I understand this (but I really want to).  I’m also looking to add a simple drum fill to bring a track in, but having trawled the internet for over an hour, still no idea how I can achieve this.  Anyone help?

    Thanks!

    Thanks for this info. While copy and paste do work for simple edits, they’re not practical for more complicated ones.

    My bridge has several time-signature (meter) changes in sequence (6|4, 4|4, 2|4, etc.), and now I need to lengthen a preceding verse by 12 bars. So, the meter changes in the bridge now need to happen 12 bars later. Although I can in fact select the existing meter events, copy them, and then paste them 12 bars later (thanks for the tip!), the problem is that the original meter changes remain, creating havoc, and requiring a lot of deleting and trial and error to make everything line up properly.

    Toontrack, please, please let us select existing meter events and then simply drag them left or right at will (or option-drag to copy them), just as we can with notes in the Grid Editor. The copy and paste commands are too simplistic for meter changes, because they don’t take into account the preexisting time-signature data that’s left behind.
