I am using Logic Pro and I am using 2 instances of SD3 as a plugin in order to separately yet simultaneously capture close mics and room mics in a single Logic session. Because of this setup, I have to keep identical Grid Editor notes/hits between the two… However I’d really rather not have to perform grid edits to every single hit twice – I’d like to just copy the Grid from one instance to the other. However I don’t seem to be able to do this; each instance of SD3 seems to keep its own clipboard. Is there potentially a way to export just the Grid hits and then import them in the other instance?
Note that I can’t just save/load the SD3 file between the two; the drums, routing, and mixer is different between the two instances. Any help appreciated!

Respect has little to do with it in this case. Opinions don’t stop because of one’s feelings. If people want to do things that are detrimental to their mix and not listen to more appropriate ways to get things done, that’s their issue.

I’d just like to put this all to bed because things are way off-track for this thread: I don’t care about opinions, recommendations, and/or solutions that don’t relate to my original question. If I have questions or issues about another topic, I will post another thread for it. If my mixes don’t sound right, I will figure it out. Or I’ll give up. Or I’ll move on to something else. Or I’ll go eat a burrito and stare at a wall. I am literally a full-grown adult, I have been doing this as a hobby, for years, and if I want to do any stupid, incomprehensible, ill-advised, “inappropriate” thing with the 1’s and 0’s loaded onto my overpriced, electronic sounds-and-letters-and-pictures machine, then I will, I will likely know that it is such, and the reasons for me wanting to do it are my own.
I appreciate the help and advice and conversation, and of course anybody is free to say whatever they like, but man, y’all ain’t gotta be so insufferable about it.

We’re just trying to help keep you from making mistakes and not understand why you’re having problems. You asked a question and people here who are a LOT more experienced than you at this are giving you answers. Jord has been at this for quite the while and I trust what he writes. Just because those answers don’t fit your paradigm don’t blame us. Sometimes you have to change the way you work – don’t think that’s a Bad Thing.
You remind me of a line in Cool Hand Luke: ‘Some people you just can’t reach’.

Telling you what you need to hear is not being insufferable. In fact, this response pretty much emphasizes my point.
I echo Jack’s response… he said all that needed to said.

Thanked by: drumjack52This is what I’m saying though – these responses are awesome and very appreciated for a question that isn’t present here. I could be chatting with Bob Rock and not Jord and it still wouldn’t matter. I wanted to know how to copy/paste grid hits/notes from one instance to the other, with context in case anybody wanted it. That’s it. That’s the question. Had the question been “How do I avoid doing what I’ve described doing and make things easier on myself” then we’d certainly be in a different thread. Thinking I need to hear any given thing or “be reached” based on assumptions is the insufferable (and mildly condescending) part, not that what you’re saying is BS or false or “not appropriate” or that so-and-so doesn’t have way more experience than me. For all anyone knows, I’m making neo-djent hillbilly jug music with Yoko Ono soundbites over the top and infinite delay on the master. I’m not coming for anybody’s Grammy, and if I want to be stupid with a fake mixing board for mad scientist reasons, then I’m not sure why anybody cares, or doesn’t wish to stay on topic.
You were told you can’t do what you want to do along with the explanation. If you call that insufferable then I don’t know what to say. QED.
