undo a mistake? This function may be the next best thing.

return to the Module Identifier.

Backup:
The display will show whether backup is currently enabled or not. If
backup is not enabled, you will not be able to compare samples. Other-
wise, press ENTER. The original sample will be restored, the processed
sample will be stored in the clipboard, and the ESI-32 will return to the
Module Identifier.
3. Re-select Submodule 9. The processed sample will be restored, and
the original sample will be stored in the clipboard. You can continue
switching back and forth between the processed and original
samples by repeating this step until you decide which sample you
want to keep.
It is best to use Undo ONLY when you have a fixed hard disk drive
installed on the SCSI bus. If you have only removable hard disks
installed and remove the one containing the backup data, the ESI-32
may become confused. The ESI-32 will select a fixed hard disk as the
backup drive, if available. If you have only removable disks and still
want to use Undo, insert one removable disk in the drive. Mount
Drives in the Master menu sets the Undo device. Leave the
removable disk in the drive until you have finished all DSP operations.
