Undo
If
you
record
some new
material over
some
existing material, and then decide
that
you
preferred the
original, this
undo
function can be used
to restore
the
original. In
fact,
you can
switch
between
the original
and
the
new
during playback
for
comparison. This
is
possible
because
the
DR4vr
always
records
new
material
on
a different area of the hard
disk.
Operation
After each recording, the
DR4vr
will play the
new
material.
To
play
the original material, press
the
UNDO
key.
The
UNDO
indicator
will light up. Press again
to
switch
back
to the
new
material.
The
UNDO
indicator
will
go
off.
Before
starting
another recording or performing an
edit,
you must
decide
which
material
you
want
to
keep: the original or the new. (Of
course,
if
you wish
to
defer
this
decision,
you can
always simply
select a
new
virtual track.
See
"Virtual Tracks" on page
27.)
For once
a
new
recording or
edit
function
is
performed,
the
undo
function
will
apply
to that
new
recording
or
Once
you've
decided, leave the
UNDO
function
set as required, then
make
a
new
recording or
use an
edit function.
If
you
don't record anything
new
or
make
any
edits,
you
will be able
to
undo
the
last
recording even
after
the
DR4vr
has been powered
off
and
on.

the recording

function works:
