ask us lot, out of the thousands, someone's gotta be drunk or kind enough to help. time permitting. ignorance notwithstanding.

I guess. Just search the term "copy" and "bars" in the pdf version.

I did not explain my self well, I am trying to do something else. I am not trying to make bars on one track bigger than drums on the other track. Thats not at all what I am trying to do.

I have my piano 4 bars and my drums 4 bars. Piano is fully packing the track from first bar to last and I am very happy with it. My drums on the other hand are a little pattern. I love the little pattern and I want to mutlitply it by four becuz my lil pattern is only 1 bar and the rest of my drum track is blank.

Ohhh! My bad. In that case, I recommend using copy and paste functions in the grid/MIDI edit mode (whichever of those two modes you prefer to use) to extend your written drum part into the blank area...

Thanks brotha. Grid edit is extremely long to do. I got like 10 different sounds per ttrack. it takes me 2 mins just to do this simple little task.
