Hi,
There’s a bit annoying Cubase behavior I don’t understand.
When using import tracks from project -
Importing only Channel and Inspector Settings to Destination Tracks (without events) when ticking individual tracks works great.
But when importing an entire folder (which saves time instead of ticking every track individually), all current audio events will be deleted from all tracks in the imported folder.
It doesn’t really makes sense - the expected behavior is for all audio events to stay, as I expect only inspector setting to change, the same way it behaves when the same individual tracks are imported.
You’re actually telling it to not Import the Audio Events. The ‘Events and Parts’ box should be checked to have it Import the Tracks’ content. But that leaves the opposite mystery - the same box is unchecked in the the pic you said did work.
This is not related to your problem but I’d also recommend having it copy the Media to the Project Folder so everything is in one place.
Maybe I wasn’t clear on this -
But I don’t want it to import the Events.
I’m only importing the inspector setting from another song to this one.
The audio events in this project shouldn’t be changed.
This is what happens in the first example - tracks settings/eq/insert changes, audio events stay as they were = good!
Adding the folder to the import - changes the inspector setting but also deletes the audio events = bad!
im not in front of cubase right now, but maybe this workaround would help .try to “lock” the tracks or “lock” only the events from the info line, maybe they won’t be deleted ?
I have the same issue (Cubase 11.0.41). It also applies when you want to import the folder and it’s containing audio tracks WITH the audio events. Normal behaviour (as it is written in the manual) should be the creation of a new track version with the new audio on it. Instead, you get a new track version without the audio, just empty tracks. This does not happen if you import the audio tracks individually.
But there is more: try to import an audio track with audio events that contain audio warp and vari audio editing on it. The audio warp data gets importet, the vari audio data gets lost. This happens of course only if you import the audio tracks individually. When you try to import a whole folder with the audio events (that contain the audio warp and vari audio data) you will get empty tracks like described above.
But this seems to be not a new thing in Cubase, there is an old thread from a year ago that descirbes the same behaviour (loosing the vari audio data when importing tracks with audio events that contains vari audio data).
