Recording Offset Subgroups Into New Groups

Hey All,

I'm sure I'm missing something obvious, but can't think what it is...

Trying to take some channel 'sets' made using offset on an existing group, and then record them into separate new groups.

Ie - over simplistic example- group 1 is chans 1, 2, 3, 4.

I want to go:

Group 1 OFFSET NUMGROUPS 4  *  (1>4 now selected)

NEXT (1 now selected)

... and now I want to record that selection - ie. just channel 1 - into a new group.

But at this point, even though the command line is showing  Group 1 Offset Numgroups 4: Chan1, if I press RECORD it doesn't grab that as a channel selection - rather it clears out the command line. SELECT LAST brings back 'Group 1 Offset Num Groups 4' rather than just the subselection I'd made.

My terrible workaround wa to turn all the other lights off, make the 'subselection' live then re-grab it using SELECT ACTIVE, but that's far from idea.

If feels like such an obvious thing to want to do that I'm sure there must be a way of doing it.....

Thanks!

Rob.
