Using Edit Loop As An "Undo" Function - Akai MPC 60 Operator's Manual

4.5.1 Using EDIT LOOP as an "UNDO" function

Because the EDIT LOOP function allows you the option to ignore all
recording and editing which was done while the EDIT LOOP was on, it
serves very well as an UNDO function.
For example, if you want to record a drum fill on bar 4 of a 4 bar
sequence, but you aren't sure if you want to keep it, simply following
these steps will allow you to try it first, then restore the sequence back to
its original state if you don't like it:
1. Fast forward to bar 4;
2. Press EDIT LOOP;
3. Set the NUMBER OF BARS field to 1;
4. Press SOFT KEY 1, <Turn Loop On>, which will turn the EDIT
LOOP on- now bar 4 will repeatedly play in a loop;
5. Overdub your drum fill;
6. Press EDIT LOOP again;
7. If you didn't like how the fill sounded, press SOFT KEY 2,
<Turn it off - ignore changes, and the sequence will return to
its original state. If you want to keep it, press <Turn it off>
(soft key 1) and the sequence will now contain the new drum
fill.
