Hard cancel switch to cancel scene copy. Can’t bend over in the middle of a show to cancel a scene copy if you did it by mistake. Also make the length of time to inact scene copy .5 to 1 second longer. ---

I like this but also feel it should just be taken off the preset switches altogether. It would be fine in the “3 dots” menu for me. ---

There is a recommendation for this back in March. > [@Disable copy scene function in gig view](https://unity.neuraldsp.com/t/disable-copy-scene-function-in-gig-view/3891): > > While the copy scene feature (1.5 sec hold button) is nice creating scenes I think it’s quite disturbing in gig view. If you are using the QC on the floor with your feet it happens that copy scene modes comes up. The only way to cancel is tapping on the touchscreen which can be difficult during a live set wink Maybe it’s only me but after the first day of use at the rehearsal place I found myself often on my knees to cancel the feature. Thanks for checking on a future update and … ---

You could finish the copy and then just press undo. ---

I feel like the OP addressed that? It would be easier to reach down and cancel the copy but his point was–and I had this happen again this weekend–sometimes you’re in the middle of something and can’t crouch down to cancel or undo. I just played through until I had time to cancel the copy, but wasn’t able to use the scene I’d set for the solo…after the song was over I reached down to cancel it. It’s pretty annoying. Again, my vote is just take it off those switches altogether. ---

Had the issue at least twice in the last show we did. Extremely annoying. Why not have e.g. the tap tempo switch as a universal “back”, “cancel” or “escape” switch for the various editing functions including in particular “copy scene”. Alternatives would be to have some sort of copy protecting mode which could be activated when playing live or to extend the time a long-press needs to activate the copy function… > V\< ---

I agree completely.
