This is the truth. Very good advice. Here is a nice 'make an entirely new
copy of a section' trick that you can do. Say that Section A is 4 bars long
and you want to make a copy of all the phrases in it and move them to the
correct parts on Section B. Pick an unused track on Section A and record a
new phrase that is longer than the section length, and put a note event
only in the last (extra) bar. Make sure that you go up and change the
number of measures of the section to that number (5) Now use the 'split'
function to split the first 4 bars of your new augmented section A to
section B. Next go back and remove that extra
long track from your inital pattern and set the pattern length back down to
what it was (4)
Voila, 2 Sections with identical data but different phrases, so you can
edit to your heart's content...
The whole Section/Phrase/Track architecture takes a bit of getting used to,
but is really really powerful once you learn it. You just might need to
unlearn other stuff. (the RM1x is the first pro-quality sequencer that i've
ever used, so I never had to unlearn that other stuff...yay)
