Undoing an operation
This unit allows you to undo an operation or recording that
was not successful or satisfactory. Many ordinary operations,
including editing and recording, can be canceled (undone).
This unit has two types of undo functions. Single undo can be
performed by a simple button press, while multi-undo allows
you to return to a specific past operation and undo the opera-
tions that occurred after it.
You can use the undo function for the following operations.
• Track editing operations (functions described in this chapter)
• Recording operations (including track bouncing)
• Automatic punching in/out
All these operations are stored on the SD card as song infor-
mation. Even when you turn the unit off (standby), the previous
operations are stored and can be undone when you turn on the
unit again.
When listening to a part that you replaced in your last recording,
for example, you find that the previous take was better. In such a
case, you can use the undo function to easily get your previous
take back.
NOTE
The UNDO/REDO button becomes lit when a single undo or
multi-undo has been performed.
