Importing objects from one project into another, in ACLAB

Can I copy/import a single object from one ACLAB project into another?

I have tried a simple copy and insert but this seems not to work across projects.

(I have two projects running and want to move individual objects from one to the other).

Thanks

Hi,

I am struggling a little with understanding what you are trying to do. I do understand a lot about audio editing as I have been doing it for over 30 years, I am just having a little trouble understanding why you want to edit two objects in the same Cleaning lab project.

Are you saying that you want to apply different parameters such as eq, noise reduction, and effects to two different objects within the same audio cleaning lab session and then use that result to bring it in to another video or audion project, or do I simply not understand what you really want to do?

Good Luck,

George

Thanks - and sorry for slow come-back! I think I have sorted the problem.

I was putting together a stage-show FX script and found that, for whatever reason, I couldn't import a cassette track into an existing project containing audio tracks. Whether this was a glitch or just me (I am fairly new to the software!) I don't know!

I then created a separate project with the casette input, with the intention of importing tracks from one to the other. It took me a while to work out that I could export the second project as a .wav file, then import this into the first project.

It worked and we ran the show successfully last week.

All in all the MAGIX package is doing what I wanted it to do!!

Many thanks

Maurice

This is such a simple thing to WANT to do, and I can find no guidance in the Help files - which is pretty bad, really, isn't it?? Seems to me that the answer from Maurice Pullen will very probably work, and I will try it. In my case I have live audio recordings from the 1960s that I want to splice together and put on the same CD. There really ought to be guidance within the Help menu, but better still, it would seem pretty basic to have available a direct procedure within Magix Audio Lab to add two projects together. I'm using V12 (2007) by the way. satisfied generally: good software in many ways, and good value too.
