Muting sound when copying in Piano Roll

Hello. Whenever I copy and paste in piano roll view the notes I am moving are played (all of them - a cluster) until I drop them at the new location. Sometimes I get stuck notes. Is there any way to turn off the playing of those notes in Piano Roll view when copying blocks of notes? Thanks!

In theory there is no difference between theory and practice, but in practice there is.

This has come up before, and unfortunately, I think the answer is no

No apology necessary. I was just trying to indicate that you're not alone in thinking this behaviour isn't ideal.

Preferences > Customization > Editing > Polyphonic Velocity Audition. Uncheck it. You should only hear the one note you click. Incidentally, it would be logical to expect that unchecking the Velocity Audition checkbox above it would completely silence editing, but it only silences velocity adjustments. You still hear the one note you click when changing pitch or time. If you don't want to hear anything at all, the easiest way is to set a Hotkey to toggle the audio engine, and toggle it off while editing. It'll come back on immediately when you start playback to hear your changes.
 
There may be differences between the way all this works with soft synths vs. hardware outputs, and there may have been issues with these setting in the past, but I believe they work as advertised in X3 and Platinum. I haven't run into the problem with polyphonic cacophony for a long time with either software or hardware synths.
 
EDIT: Actually, I just checked this functionality in different versions, and it appears the Polyphonic Audition option hasn't worked since X1, so I guess OP is on X1...? Explains why I haven't had to deal with it for a long time... good riddance!

Just FYI I'm using X3e x64 on Windows 7 Pro 64bit. I will try those suggestions!

Interesting. I can't make X2, X3 or Platinum honor the Polyphonic enable. Must be some other setting interaction or maybe something to do with what version the project originated in. For now, I'm not looking this gift-horse in the mouth.
 
Glad it worked for you in any case.
