4.

Press the Group button of your target Group (this can also be in another Group bank, in

this case first press Button 3/4 to select the Group bank). If you want to paste the Group
without affecting the existing Groups, press the dim white Group button after the last col-
ored Group button to create the new Group and automatically paste the copied Group

there.

All parameters of the Group (all included Sounds, Group effects, Group’s Channel proper-

ties) will be copied (including its Patterns in the Arranger if you have enabled the

+EVENT

option). The copied Group will replace the Group previously at that position in

the Group List.

You will notice that once you have pasted the Group, the target Group button starts blinking
itself, indicating that it is ready to be pasted again: Therefore, to duplicate a Group more than
once, once you have pressed the source Group button you just have to press all the desired
target Group buttons in a row.

Instead of holding

DUPLICATE

, you can also pin the Duplicate mode by pressing

DUPLICATE

+

Button 1. You can then release

DUPLICATE

: Your controller will stay in Duplicate mode until you

press

DUPLICATE

again. See section Pinning a Mode on the Controller for more information.

Reordering Groups

You can reorder Groups via drag-and-drop in the Ideas view or Song view of the software. For

convenience it can be helpful to organize your Groups.

You can select multiple Groups to reorder them all at once! See

5.1.3, Selecting Multiple Sounds

or Groups

for more information.

Reordering Groups is performed like reordering Sounds:
1.

Click and hold the Group.

2.

While holding the mouse button, drag your mouse horizontally in Ideas view or vertically

in Song view toward the desired location in the Group List.

As the mouse cursor moves, an insertion line appears at the potential places where you
can drop the Group.

3.

When the insertion line appears at the desired location, release the mouse button.
