Another way is to:

Select the notes you want to duplicate, then option-drag (MAC) them to the new instrument. This makes a copy of the notes instead of just moving them. Should work fine

If you want to specifically copy drum hits (e.g., snare, kick, ride, etc.) — then double click on a block of drums (that show up in Track1 for example) and at the top/middle of the screen, click on GRID EDITOR.

Once you’re in Grid Editor, you can use the selector tool (looks like an arrow) to select one or more drum hits, then right click and copy.  Next, just place the playhead in the grid editor where you want to paste and right click, choose paste.  Perhaps oddly, it doens’t seem to work if you use command+V — so you have to right click and then choose paste.

Hope this helps.

Here is how to do this – more visually:

Hello!

Is this not possible in edit play style mode or is there a way to do this?

For example if I want to copy midi notes from the tom to a snare (not the Power Hand). If I right click on the tom and select “cut or copy midi” and then select “paste midi tom” on the snare, the tom will always be reactivated and the snare remains without midi notes.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks and best wishes

Hi, John,

thank you for the quick response.
So it should actually work and will be delivered again with an update?

Best regards
Nico
