Undo an Edit Operation
The Undo function will remove the last Edit operation. As such, it is valuable for
fixing mistakes. Remember that only the last edit operation can be Undone. Operations that
can be Undone include: C
UT
, I
NSERT
, B
LEEP
, I
NSERT
R
ECORD
and certain E
RASE
functions.
If uncertain about what the last operation was that will be Undone, hold A
LT
+
U
NDO
to
display the last type of edit performed. (Erasures of audio within a File can be Undone;
erasures of Files or Directories cannot.) Whenever a mistake has been made, press the U
NDO
key before moving ahead.
To Undo the Last Editing Operation
•
Press the U
NDO
key.
•
Press U

a second time to restore the operation.
U
NDO
is also used with the M
ARK
, E

and B
LEEP
keys to remove marks, and regions
of audio that have been Erased or replaced with a Bleep. To perform these functions:
•
Use the E
DIT
I

To Undo the Last Transport Operation
This allows returning immediately to the Cursor position where the last transport
command was issued. This can be used to repeatedly audition an edit, or recover from
accidentally pressing FF or REW a second time and finding yourself at the beginning or
end of the file.

Press and hold the U
NDO
key.
•
Press P

Solo Buttons
The left or right S
OLO
keys select a single track of audio, instead of the normal case
where both tracks are heard. It is often desirable to monitor only one channel while doing
single-track editing. For example, it's hard to edit speech if the other track is playing music at
the same time.
Pressing the L
EFT
S
OLO
key effectively mutes the right channel, and vice-versa. A S
OLO
button is illuminated when active; it is canceled by pressing the illuminated key again. The
Solo keys work only at the Edit level, and their function is canceled when leaving it.
Single Track Editing
All editing operations can be performed on a single track. These include:
•
Mark
•
Cut
•
Copy
•
Insert
•
Insert Record
•
Erase
•
Gain Adjust, Set and Fade
