Duplicate tracks/instrument

Post by Katvil » Sun Aug 04, 2013 2:16 pm

Hi

I'm new here and I recently received my new Push. Fun to play with but I already have e question which I can't seem to find the answer too in the manual or in here:

Is it possible to duplicate a track? Or is there an easy way to put the exact same instrument on a neighbouring track? I know I could just add a track and go browsing for the instrument, but it just seems faster to be able to duplicate the track or something.
Example: I found a good sound, that I used as bass. And I thought I'd use the same sound in a higher pitch for harmonies too while the bass i stil playing. But I want them on different tracks so I can play them back separately.

Thanks :-)

in TRACK mode hold down DUPLICATE and press the track select button

everything gets duplicated, clips and all

I tried this in Note mode and nothing happens. What is Track mode?

Thanks, my bad. I was using the wrong Select button/switch. I was using select next to the shift button. I keep forgetting the select switch above because they are multi functional.
