I’ve been complaining over and over i could not change transfer a bank to another project and i was feeling out of despair to group songs i started before understanding the structure of the OT.
I was reading soooo complicated methods with .ot files and so on, i tried weird methods before giving up.
Today i saw this option Export to Set that made me think maybe the first idea of the OT file structure was not the one we know. Why would someone have a different set? Unless it really means a set? Then a project would be a song? That’s a side note to explain i was fed up to understand how it works and gave a try so it finally work.
So i did transfer a bank to another project in literally 3 min. No hassle. Easy peesy.
I can’t believe it was that easy. Maybe it is well documented but i never saw it here.
In case another desperate person sees this, don’t loose faith my friend.
Say you wanna copy bank 5 of Project A > bank 5 of Project B, just do as follows:
- in Proj A, copy part. Go to Proj B, paste the Part.
- in Proj A, copy pattern. Go to Proj B, paste the pattern.
- in Proj A note the names of samples used in each track.
- in Proj A collect the samples.
- in Proj B load the samples per track. They will point towards the folder of Project A, you just have to find the right name of sample and load it.
- in Proj B, collect samples, so the links between tracks and samples stay within the project B.
In case of P-locked samples, you just have to watch the number in the slot list it points to and check in Project A the name corresponding in the slot list.
Such a relief, i’ll sleep definitely less idiot tonight… if i can sleep after so much excitement
Hope that helps.
