Ghost Clips please!

Post by photonal » Tue Apr 08, 2008 11:19 am

It would be really useful to have 'Ghost Clips' similar to Logics 'Ghost Parts', whereby a part acts as a master and all ghost copies in a song update automatically when any changes to the master are made.

Should be possible to change a Ghost Clip into a standard clip too if required.

This would make working with loads of clips in a song easier to manage.

Feature requests should probably go in the feature whishlist forum.

Wouldn't hurt to bump one of the existing threads in there about this.

Coming from Cubase, I really missed this concept of a ghost copy like you're talking about.

I remember when I posted about it someone suggested that i assign midi notes to clips and use a single midi track to sequence out an arrangement. Everything in effect would be like a ghost clip with the arrangement triggering the master clip. Interesting workaround but obviously not what we really need.

I want to try this work-around, even if it is a bit silly... Can someone explain how it is done please?
