Lossless audio and Copying Notes to other sessions

Hi
First of all this app is amazing, i'm back making music on the regular thanks to it and having loads of fun along the way, seriously massive thank you for investing so much time in such a powerful program

I have a few questions

1.
After I've exported my full song I tried uploading it to bandcamp on my phone and it wouldn't allow it, saying it needs to be a lossless audio file

Tried it again after moving the file to my computer, still wouldn't allow it

Finally put it into a DAW and exported it that way and now the site accepts it, is this a heard of problem?

I did try various different sample rates and sample formats and none of them worked

2.

When inputting notes on the sampler note grid for the Drum Machine is there a way to select and copy or delete all notes or do i have to click them individually

Example:

Pattern 1

Copy it over to Pattern 2 and I want to change all the notes OR

bringing a new instrument in (keys) which I want to duplicate the bassline, Do I have to input it all manually

Thanks

Fantastic piece of kit, I'm feeling inspired

Thanks a lot for your message and for the kind words.

Regarding 1:
As you see here: https://get.bandcamp.help/hc/en-us/articles/360007802254-How-and-why-should-I-upload-lossless-files- ...
.wav is a lossless format.
G-Stomper exports audio in .wav format, and I never heard of such problems.
Is there a specific quality required?
G-Stomper exports at max with 32bit, 96kHz, Stereo. The default is usually 16bit, 48 kHz, Stereo.
The exported .wav files are guaranteed lossless.
If it is converted in some way, then either during the transfer to your pc or to a cloud storage.
But right after the export, the .wav files are always lossless.

Regarding 2:
No, there is no way so select and copy particular notes. But there will be an overhaul of the grid sequencers later in this year, which will hopefully fill this gap.
However, in the next update (I guess you talk about G-Stomper Studio, correct?), you'll get a new "delete" function to delete all selected notes at once.
Of course this applies only to selected notes. To duplicate a bassline, there is no need to manually enter the notes again.
There are many ways to copy single bars of a track or a pattern or the complete track or pattern to another track or pattern slot.

Be sure to check out the Data Copy Framework Manual at:
https://www.planet-h.com/gstomper/docs/html/G-Stomper_UserManual_DataCopyClearFramework.html

You can copy almost everything in various ways.

Thank you for the prompt reply, not sure why it won't upload to bandcamp straight from the first export but no big deal anyway.

Learning more every day about this, looking forward to posting some music once I'm a bit happier with it

All the best
