    I think it’s just a moment with a particular groove you’re having I think. If you set up a different example with two different grooves, it will probably work.

    You could do it a different way if needed. Right-click the source groove > Find > Select Containing Folder. With your source Groove now selected in the Search Results Area, now you can use the Groove Parts feature and drag the hihat from there.

    I’ve had a go at what you’re doing. The instruments in the destination groove are all replaced by the hi-hat if I choose Paste on Selected Grooves > All.

    Thanks, Shootie. I just tried it with another two grooves, and I’m getting the same result. “Paste on Selected Groove” is broken, no matter where I try to use it. (Not sure if the plug-in format matters, but I’m using the AU plug-in.)

    Thanks also for the workaround. I’ll give that a shot. (The caveat is that I’m currently using multiple filters on the Grooves tab, and I’m continually referring to this set of grooves to build my track. So, if I choose Select Containing Folder, I’ll lose those filters. So, I’ll have to take note of the filters so I can re-select them.)

    Toontrack: I’m 100% sure this is a bug that needs to be addressed. I’ll look to see if there’s an official bug-reporting thread.

    Hey, Mick. While I appreciate your reply, the issue is not with “Paste on Selected Grooves > All.” The issue is with “Paste on Selected Grooves > Hi-hat” (or with other, individual instruments in that command). Thanks.

    If your snare is defined as the power hand, the tendency is that paste on selected groove will replace it with the hi-hat as it is a power hand. What you might want to try is selecting your groove and then select Groove Parts and drag the hi-hat from there onto your groove.

    Still thinking it could be something wonky with it. That’s why I suggested to try doing with the Groove Parts.

    Hi there,

    Can you save the EZD3 project, archive it (compress .zip) and post it here. I can not replicate the issue on any of my rigs, I have a 3.0.6 version and 3.1 and can not get it to misbehave like that.

    Can we get an example of which particular grooves are giving you problems. Give us a couple of specific grooves and let’s see if we can reproduce this issue.

    Yeah or even post a youtube. I am (as it seems many are)…. baffled…. inquiring minds want to know….

    Hey, folks, I really appreciate all of the replies. I’m really under the gun with a deadline, here, so a quick reply:

    1. I opened a support ticket with Toontrack, and a rep has already replied, acknowledging the issue and saying my report has been sent to the appropriate department for fixing.
    2. No clue why some of you aren’t seeing this behavior. Maybe it’s specific to the AU version of the plug-in. Or the fact that I’m on an M2 Ultra Mac. Or maybe it’s DAW-specific (I’m in Digital Performer 11). Whatever it is, I genuinely appreciate all of those chiming in to help, but I don’t have time to devote to proving that I’m seeing this bug. I’m an advanced user, as well as a beta-tester for various, major developers, and this is not pilot error. The command is simply not working.
    3. Someone asked for a specific groove. On my machine, Paste on Selected Groove is broken on every groove. Literally. There’s no groove on which it doesn’t happen. (For grins, I just went to “Funky Dance 116 BPM” “Verse o3.” Copied hi-hat and tried to paste the hat elsewhere. It erases the entire groove while pasting the hat. Every. Time.)
    4. Finally, I’m attaching the .ezd3p file (a work in progress). But if you don’t see the bug, I don’t know what else to say. Again, Toontrack says they’re working on it.

    Thanks again for everyone’s efforts! You guys are fantastic!

    P.S. The forum won’t let me upload the .ezd3p file. Go figure!!
