Project did not originate in 10.1, it was previous version. XML out to Davinci, printed 4k prores4444 and imported. Copy and pasted the audio to synch with prores in new project and previous problems occurred. Also some clips that were disabled were reenabled and vice versa. I think a simple solution is to export the audio file in the first project and transfer it over in one wave into the new project. Or a compound clip, I’ve yet to try but will do so now.
But duplicate project seems to be working fine, just copy and pasting is broken it appears.
