4. Press the pad of the target Sound slot (this can also be in another Group, in this case first
press the desired Group button).
→ All parameters of the Sound will be copied (including the Pattern content for that Sound
if you have enabled the +EVENTS option). The copied Sound will replace any Sound pre-
viously loaded in the target slot.
You will notice that once you have pasted the Sound, the target pad starts blinking itself, indi-
cating that it is ready to be pasted again to additional Sound slots: Therefore, to duplicate a
Sound more than once, once you have pressed the source pad you just have to press all the
desired target pads 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.
5.2.7 Moving Sounds
You can reorder Sounds via drag-and-drop in the software. It can be helpful to organize your
Sounds more conveniently. Notably, this allows you to move your Sounds to other pads, and
create a Group that is easier to play from the pads.
You can select multiple Sounds to move them all at once! See ↑5.1.3, Selecting Multiple Sounds or
Groups for more information.
To move one or more Sounds:
1. Click and hold the desired Sound slot(s) in the Sound List or in the Pad view.
