How to copy/paste and replace a lick
An example, I have an instrumental track and the same lick is used two places however the lick in one place is screwed up. I know I can delete the bad lick and then copy and paste the good lick in it's place. But, is there a way to just replace the lick, without prior deletion, when I copy/paste?

Yes, when you paste... instead of doing a regular paste, do a Paste Special... press Ctrl+Alt+V or choose Edit > Paste Special. Then in the dialog box, choose the Replace Old with New option. That will replace the bad lick automatically without having to delete it first. Scott -- Scott R.

Hmm, I'll have to try that again. I thought I tried that and it didn't work. Thanks, Scott

Got it to work. The default Special Paste option is not to replace and I had to change it so it would replace.

fireberd Got it to work. The default Special Paste option is not to replace and I had to change it so it would replace. When I saw the thread title in the forum, I was wondering if someone was doing a lassie movie, or a dogfood commercial, or just had some wierdo in the studio? Removing lip smacking is a normal part of the recording process. But having to remove someone licking the microphone... well that's another thing all together. That is not a popsickle! Stop it!

I assume you are jesting.

fireberd Got it to work. The default Special Paste option is not to replace and I had to change it so it would replace. That's right, that's why Scott sed: choose Edit > Paste Special. Then in the dialog box, choose the Replace Old with New option. Just keep on your toes to always select the kind of pasting you want to do at a given time. For me, 99% of the time "blend" works - but when you really want a paste to replace something, then choose the option you did for this. There's also the option to have a paste force what's in the clip to move over to make room. Randy B.
