OP-XY copy 1 bar drum pattern doesn’t copy to bar 4

I’ve made a 1 bar drum pattern, with a track scale of 2.

I’ve then copied it by pressing BAR plus SHIFT plus + to bar 2. That works. Next the same to bar 3. That works too.

Finally to bar 4 and the last 5 steps are missing.

Not only that, but I can’t add the missing steps at the end of bar 4. I’ve tried step input mode and live recoding them.

This was a bug I noticed on 1.0.25 but forgot about but is still here on 1.0.29

Do you have more than 120 notes on that track after copying? Maybe that’s the issue, as that’s the hard limit on the XY. 120 notes per track, per pattern.

I’m not sure. I don’t think I have as it’s a drum track playing drum hits as opposed to it playing loops which might overlap (if that makes sense)

This bug is random as I’ve managed to create a new project and got it to play a 4 bar pattern ok using copy and paste.

Thanks for the tip though. I’ll try and work out how many notes I’ve got.

You were right about the limit. I created a new project so as to not mess up mine, and created a busy drum loop, and sure enough it wouldn’t fully copy to bar 4 until I made it less busy.

Thanks for your help and also to TE support for getting back to me

Glad you got it sorted, but yes it’s a bit of a weird limitation though huh?

It certainly is. I’ve asked TE if a “note limit” warning could be given for such occasions.

Thanks again for your help and, as it turned out, correct diagnosis :smile::+1:
