Roland VS-880EX - Manual (Page 147)

However if you once again record (step 3’) after
returning to the condition of recording number 2, the
recordings 3–5 that were canceled by the Undo opera-
tion will be lost. This means that if after step 3’ you
use the Undo operation to return to the previous step,
you will return to the condition of step 2.
Recording and Editing Operations
Which Can Be Undone (Undo)
Recording or editing operations performed after creat-
ing a song are recorded together with the song data as
its operation history, and the data itself is also pre-
served without being erased. For example, suppose
that you perform 10 recording operations on song 1
and then create song 2. The operation history of song 2
is newly recorded from the time when song 2 was cre-
ated. If you subsequently select song 1 again, the his-
tory of the 10 previous recording operations will still
be there.
The Undo function refers to the operation history of
the currently selected song, and restores the song to
the condition in which it was the specified number of
operations ago. In the case of song 1 in this example,
you will be able to cancel the 10 recording operations
that were performed. A maximum of 999 levels of
operation history may be recorded for each song.
1. Press [UNDO].
“Level=” appears in the display.
2. Rotate the TIME/VALUE dial to select the num-
ber of previous steps the conditions of which you
want to have restored.
3. Press [YES] to execute Undo.
The UNDO indicator lights. If you want to cancel the
Undo, press [CANCEL (NO)].
Canceling the Last-Performed Undo
(Redo)
The Redo function can be executed when the UNDO
indicator is lit. When the song data is saved, for exam-
ple by your doing Song Store or selecting another
song, the UNDO indicator will go out, indicating that
the Undo function will no longer be available.
1. While the UNDO indicator is lit, hold down
[SHIFT] and press [UNDO].
2. “Cancel the last UNDO?” appears in the display.
Press [F4 (Exec)].
The UNDO indicator light goes off. If you wish to can-
cel, press [CANCEL (NO)].
Canceling Only the Very Last-
Performed Operation
If you most frequently use the Undo function to undo
just the previously performed recording/editing oper-
ation (i.e., undo level 1), you may prefer not to be
bothered with the messages that appear when the
[UNDO] button is pressed. In this case, make the fol-
lowing settings so that just the previous operation will
be undone immediately when the [UNDO] button is
pressed.
1. Press [SYSTEM] several times until “SYS System
PRM ?” appears in the display.
2. Press [YES].
3. Press PARAMETER [ ] several times until
“SYS UNDO MSG=” appears in the display.
