Copying and pasting

As you’d expect, our editor supports copying and pasting notation. Here’s how it works.

1. When editing your slice, select the notes/rests you want to copy.

2. Hit Control C on your keyboard (or ⌘ C on a Mac). You’ll see the following message:

3. Select the note/rest where you want to paste your notation.

4. Press Control V on your keyboard (or ⌘ V on a Mac). The notation will be pasted.

At the moment, copying is limited to a single instrument and single voice. There’s no way to copy music from more than one instrument (or voice) at once. You’ll need to copy each instrument/voice one at a time.

Copying from one slice to another

Copying and pasting also works across browser tabs/windows, except for two cases:

• Firefox on desktop doesn’t yet support the copy-and-paste technology we’re using. In Firefox, you’re limited to copying and pasting within the same editor session. We’ll update this help page when Firefox adds support for this feature.
• Touch devices (iOS and Android) might not support this. On these devices, you’re limited to copying and pasting within the same editor session.
