An Overlooked Essential feature - Backwards Duplicate

Post by robbieds » Tue Apr 26, 2016 5:43 pm

cmd + D is an essential key command in arranging.

However, not having shift+ cmd + D for 'backwards Duplicate' is a big deal. I need to easily duplicate a loop so that it pastes to end of the selected clip's start point.

This would help me work much faster, without having to zoom in on grid setting precisely copy + paste one bar over.......

For instance - the idea i want to duplicate starts on the 4th sixteenth note of the first beat, in the middle of a phrase (verse/chorus). I want to [Backwards} duplicate that idea to the beginning of the phrase without having to copy + paste and zoom in on the correct grid setting in order to maintain the pattern.

Please someone tell me they also need this - its a simple Feature, that should be included next update.
