Try hitting “C” immediately before the paste. This clears something that makes
the paste work!

Subject: [studiorecorder] pasting to repeat a sound in the same file
Hi all,
I must be missing something because this sounds too obvious to me😊
I have a file which is a sound, surrounded by 1.5 seconds of silence on each
side. I want that sound repeated 3 times… So here’s what I do:
1. I press <space> to get past the sound, then press <space> again to
stop. I then select to beginning;
2. I press <ctrl+c> to copy that selection; so far so good. I press
<shift+space> & I can hear my selection;
3. I move to the beginning of the file, then press <space to go past the
sound, then I press <space> to stop it;
4. I press <ctrl+v> to paste the selection I have previously made;
5. My selection is gone from the clipboard because pressing <shift+space>
yields nothing. However when I go back to the beginning of my file, I do not
hear my sound twice & its length hasn’t changed… In other words, the paste did
clear the selection but never materialized in my file…
Thanks for sharing your musings.
Cheers,
Jean-Claude Provost
