Adding a clip to the Groove Pool

Click the Add to Groove Pool button () located on the Stretch tab of the Clip Properties window to make the selected clip available in the Groove Pool so you can apply its timing to other tracks.

Groove cloning can extract grooves from loop tracks only.

Saving file properties

When you make changes in the Clip Properties window, the changes you have made are saved in the project file, but does not alter the original media file. To save clip property changes in the media file, click the Save File button ().
