Duplicating Material
There are many different ways to create musical material in Stella.
It can be loaded from files using load or import,
created using new, copy and paste, computed
by macros such as object, thread, merge,
algorithm and generator, or captured with
record. The easiest way to create new material is to
duplicate existing structure.
Duplicate copies a container and its contents to a new
object. The new object is automatically placed in Top-Level. If a
name for the duplicate is not specified it is generated from the name
of the original object.
The next example copies Pulse to a new thread named Pulse2:
Stella [Top-Level]: duplicate pulse pulse2
Pasted Pulse2 to Top-Level.
Stella [Top-Level]: list
Top-Level:
1. #<THREAD: Pulse>
2. #<ALGORITHM: Sinus>
3. #<THREAD: Pulse2>
Stella [Top-Level]:
