Description:
Introduce a universal "Duplicate" option that allows users to quickly copy any element in Loopy Pro — including tracks, sources, widgets, MIDI inputs, AUv3s, control profiles, and more.
Problem:
Currently, if a user wants to reuse an existing setup (e.g. a MIDI source or audio track) with slight modifications, they must rebuild it from scratch. This is time-consuming and increases the chance of errors, especially in complex projects.
Proposed Solution:
– Add a "Duplicate" button or context menu option for all major elements
– Duplicated items retain their settings (e.g. plugin state, channel routing, widgets, bindings)
– Allow renaming the duplicate immediately after creation
– Optional: support "duplicate with empty audio" for audio clips/sources
Benefits:
✅ Greatly speeds up project building and prototyping
✅ Supports iterative workflows (copy → modify)
✅ Reduces repetitive setup time
✅ Makes it easy to A/B versions of instruments, effects or sequences
✅ Aligns with common UX expectations from other DAWs and apps
