Hi there!

I have a 2 bars sequence and want to extend it to the length of a verse, lets say 16 Bars. Is there any quicker way around copying and pasting each single track?

Thanks to you guys in advance. :)

Yes, there are several other ways.

Q-Link 14 in Main Mode controls the number of bars

Map a midi control to "Sequence Bars" in the Sequence Parameters Midi learn menu and you can control the number of bars

Menu > Edit > Preferences > Project Defaults and set the number of bars for each new sequence you create. You can set it to 16, and each time you create a project or new sequence, it will be 16 bars.

I'm sure you've got it already but, which other ways have I missed?

Go to song mode, enter the sequence 8x and convert to new sequence.
