Combine sliced drum racks?

Hi:

I would like to combine two or more sliced drum racks down into one, and can't see any straightforward way of doing this within Live.

Is there any way to export or copy a slice from one drum rack and import or past it into another? Or do you have to use an external editor (or arrangement view, which would suck even more) in order to make one drumrack out of two or three sliced drumracks.

If not in Live 7, any sense of this working in Live 8?

Thanks for reading,

e.

just grab any single slice from one drum rack, and then drag it to another drum rack in a different track...

Thanks, Homebelly:

It works of course - I'm now dragging the sample up to the top of a track (in session view), and then back down again. The slice gets moved - but: I can only seem to move, ie cut, but not copy. This is confounding. I'd rather be safe, and copy before deleting the source, and can't quite figure that out...

Thanks again,

press the alt-button while you drag. this should make a copy. works also with clips, efx, channels, scenes ...

is there a way to copy all or multiple pads from one drum rack to another.

I often have that i "sliced to midi" several parts of sample in different steps and then you have as many drum racks as you did separate "slice to midi". Anyway to merge these drum racks or to always slice to a dedicated drum rack perhaps?

I was searching for how to do this, but I figured it out and thought I'd update this thread. Select all and copy the slices from the chain view and then paste in the other drum rack chain view. But...you have to make sure the slices are not on the same keys prior to copy/pasting them, or it will just play the multiple slices. Not sure if there's another way, but this worked for me.

Or just move the sampler over to the new drum rack

There's got to be a better but I haven't found it. Cope and paste works but then you have to manually dram them to different pads or have undesired multisample.
