Sample files doubling when dragged into user folder?

Post by newndank » Tue Dec 30, 2014 12:50 am

Hi, I am currently going through my sample library and organizing everything. I made folders in my user library to organize all the files into, but when i drag the sample from the sample library to my user folder it doubles the file in my sample library? The sample library doesn't allow me to delete the copied sample file either.

I guess its not a big deal but it looks pretty sloppy and i don't feel like having double the amount of samples in my library as I'm trying to make my workflow faster not scroll through pages upon pages of doubles. Also if you have any other pointers for organization I would be all ears :D

Appreciate the help!

Are you sure it's doubling the wav file and not just adding the normal '.asd' analysis file?
