Hi

I've a question about assigning tracks to groups.

I've split a guitar jam, all from one track (say 'Track X'), into a bunch of short loops (a couple of dozen of them).

Assigned the clips to Playtime (which is on Track Y) - so it runs across say Groups 1-3.

When I jam with Playtime, they all play on Track X. When I write with Playtime, I get a really messy track with multiple items overlapping.

If I assign Group 1 to Track A, group 2 to track B, group 3 to track C, I'd hope it would write to those tracks, but it doesn't.

Is there a way to set this up properly within Playtime?

And/or, can I now split the items across new or existing tracks?

Cheers

Stew
