Topic: Copy and paste and paste …

You can do that already, even easier than copy&paste (which, by the way, always pastes to the position of your edit cursor)! Just select the event you want duplicated and press INSERT on your keyboard. 😉

Unfortunately, it ignores the snap setting, so if your parts aren’t perfectly cut (unlikely with MIDI) you might have to move them in place manually. And of course, it only works on single events.

Since this was placed in the future board, I might as well formulate those drawbacks into suggestions for improvement:

1- ‘Insert’ should use the desired snap value, as long as the inserted event won’t overlap with the previous one. If snap’s disabled it should work the way it does right now.

2- It should work with multiple selected events, even across multiple tracks. Just imagine – you could create a whole house track in under a minute! 😆 (j/k)

By the way, what’s the difference between ‘insert event’ and ‘paste event’ in the edit menu?
