accidentally overwriting clips

Post by ppadru1 » Thu Jul 07, 2011 4:45 pm

When DJ'ing, I have accidentally dragged a clip over another one, and have replaced it, meaning that if I didnt remember what the old clip was, it could be lost from my repertoire of music forever. Is there any way to move the old clip to an empty slot if another piece of audio is dragged over it?

Thanks!

you can drag clips into a folder in your library...i believe there is a folder called "clips" already there....yeah...so just drag them over...it saves your settings and everything....not sure if this is what you wanted...but its better than losing a bunch of music.

save the set under a new revision before you play out.
don't save the set when you're done.
use undo.
etc.
