Seqencer: Block -> Make Unique... Gone?

Hey there,

I think at some point was a make unique function for blocks inside the Sequencer.
Either it is not there anymore or I am wrong and don't remember correctly...?
(it was in the right-click menu before the refactoring to the new menu style I think...?)

Anyway, this is very useful if working with the same block throughout an arrangement
to get some variations going at the end.

(If you don't know what I mean with the make unique function,
it would basically look like this:
Create a duplicate of the current block, delete the current block, insert the duplicated one
instead in the same place... and somehow still keep the mutes intact.)


Best,
tL.

Oh, and another thing:
If this doesn't exist or actually really never did:

Please consider checking if it is possible that when a block gets replaced in the
sequence editor the mutes for the tracks are being preserved.
Right now they get reset as soon as the block is replaced.
Maybe it is possible to just copy them over to the other block?

(Not sure if this is possible, because what happens if the number of tracks is different...?)

I don't think there's been anything like that. I agree "Replace block" should keep track on/off and seqblock automation.

Great. That indeed would eliminate the last nitpick I have
when working on something from start to finish in terms of speed and workflow.

(Otherwise there's not really much more right now that I can think about.
Which is quite an accomplishment... :) Well, at some time
you might want to fix the grid. But that's about it.)
