Good to finally see the inclusion of import song data function at v4,but as it is,is pretty much basic.Please consider to improve it by adding a pro tools style importing capabilities,which means ability to import also VCAs and Busses along with master,audio and instrument tracks that it does already,and also the option to import any of these tracks to substitute the equivalent at the target session.

For example let’s say that I have mix one out of 10 songs for an album and I want to import all the mixing details of this song to the next one.That means that from the’’source’’ song I need all the mixer channels to substitute or appear as new channels on my ’’target’’ song and just keeping the audio of the “target” song.As it is right now if I choose to import all of the tracks of a song to another song,I will end up with  duplicated tracks and I will have to manually transport all audio files to these new imported tracks and then remove the old audio tracks.....so complicated and unnecessary waste of time.

Thanks for your time!
