Copying a Measure

You can copy a portion of a performance to a different bar in the same Part or to a measure in another Part. This is handy when you’re composing a song that repeats a similar phrase.

“Mix”

When a recorded performance exists at the copy destination, the newly copied passage is mixed with the previous recording. When the Tones of the copy source and destination are different, the Tone of the destination is used.

When a recorded performance exists at the copy destination, the newly copied passage is inserted without deleting the previous recording. This makes the song longer by an amount equal to the number of inserted measures.
