Aha! Got it...pretty clever. Thanks. Try my workaround too, sometime - it lets you treat automation exactly the way you expect it to work.

There have been multiple threads on this recently including one I started not too long ago.  I'm honestly amazed/troubled that this has gone on w/o being addressed in ANY of the updates or quick fixes for X1. Especially for something that seems like such a basic, straight-forward function.  I mean should I seriously need a "workaround" to copy & paste automation???
It's even more troubling that in a recent thread a rep from Cakewalk (Seth I believe) actually stated that automation currently functions as it should. SMH.  So either there is some serious lack of testing going on or they're just giving us b.s. answers. I don't know.  Either way it's not good.

Will do Anderton.

Exactly.  I cannot believe that this is considered a low priority for Cakewalk.  I haven't downloaded X1D yet, but it sounds like this bug still exists.  


I'm going to have to seriously look at other platforms now.

is this fixed ? :(

I don't think this has been addressed yet. I am still experiencing this issue and I just did a new install of X1d. I did a post on the most recent thread I could find back in 2011. I will keep an eye on this one however, as it is more recent... Thanks!

Yes I also started a thread on this. I also would like to be able to copy and paste automation within a simple instrument track instead of splitting the track,copying to an alternate midi or audio track or any other extra step that just adds a few extra steps and is not very efficient. Is there an efficiency expert working at cakewalk?? Maybe not :( I guess this can just be known as the work around platform. I'm done complianing now. +1 for copying and pasteing automation within simple instrument tracks.

Nope. This issue is still very much alive in X1 and no one from Cakewalk has yet to even so much as acknowledge the problem despite numerous threads and bug reports from various users including myself. It has become my biggest issue w/ X1 and like I've said before if this doesn't get fixed in whatever the next update/release is for Sonar I am done w/ this program.

The issue we may be dealing with on this is that nobody has contacted the bakers and formally opened an issue with a CWBRN number? Is anyone aware of any open documented issues with Cakewalk? Does a CWBRN already exist that any of you are aware of? Before I call it in I would like to know if this issue is already owned by someone and what the feedback was....Thanks!

Problems with copying automation have been complained about for many years/versions.

"The function/feature is working as designed."

The man says, "Doc, when I do this it hurts."

The Doc says, "Don't do that."
