6 – Basic Recording
Undoing operations (undo)
This unit allows you to undo, for example, unwanted
operations and recordings that were unsuccessful.
Undo can be used on many ordinary operations,
including editing and recording operations. This
unit has two types of undo functions. Single undo
can be used with a simple button press, while multi-
undo allows you to return to and undo a specific past
operation.
NOTE
The UN/REDO [HISTORY] indicator lights when a
single undo or multi-undo has been conducted.
Undoing the last operation (single
undo)
Press the UN/REDO [HISTORY] button to return to
the state before the last operation was conducted.
After doing this, the UN/REDO [HISTORY] indicator
lights, showing that redo (see below) is possible.

8 Cancelling an undo operation (redo)
Press the UN/REDO [HISTORY] button when it is lit
to return to the state of the last operation. The UN/
REDO [HISTORY] indicator turns OFF.
NOTE
If single undo is used when multi-undo (described
below) has already been used to return the
unit to a previous state, it will go one more step
backward. If you press the UN/REDO [HISTORY]
button again to redo the step, the single undo
operation is cancelled, and the previous multi-
undo state is restored. In this case, the unit is not
restored to the most recently conducted operation,
so the UN/REDO [HISTORY] indicator remains lit
because further redo operations are possible.
Undoing a previous operation (multi-
undo)
1. Press and hold the UN/REDO [HISTORY] button
to open the
HISTORY
screen.
The
HISTORY
screen shows the operation history
as a list.
Each operation in the list is called an “event” .
The event list starts at the bottom with event
number
0
(
-START UP-
).
The most recent event has an asterisk (*) to its
right.
All events that occurred after a selected event
can be undone at once. This operation is called
“multi-undo” because it allows you to undo
multiple events and return to an earlier state.
2. Use the DATA wheel to select the event that you
want to return to (all events after the selected
event will be undone).
3. Press the F2 [EXEC] button to execute the multi-
undo and restore the state just after the selected
event was conducted.
In this state, the UN/REDO [HISTORY] indicator
lights.
The unit has been returned to a previous state,
but the event information undone through the
above operation is not erased. On the
HISTORY
screen, a * appears to the right of current event
after undoing.
If you make a new recording or new edits
after using multi-undo (UN/REDO [HISTORY]
indicator lit), the event history after the current
event is cleared and the last operation conducted
becomes the most recent event.
NOTE
When the
HISTORY
screen is open, the UN/REDO
[HISTORY] button does not function, so single
undo and redo cannot be used.
