Editing

Delete Last

Pressing the DELETE LAST button removes the last record pass and automatically deletes the recorded audio, but only if the record pass is the last entry in the history list. If any other action is performed after the record pass that is recorded in the history list, pressing the DELETE LAST button results in the message Nothing to delete in the display.

If the last record pass consisted of multiple punches, all of the recorded audio will be deleted, not just the final punch.

If the record pass was the last entry in the history list, you are asked to confirm the Delete Last command, because you cannot undo this once it has been done.

Select OK to complete the operation. The project file is saved to disk.

Another method of deleting the last record pass is with the EDIT:Undo command. This gives you the option of keeping the audio from the last record pass so that you can use the Redo command if you change your mind. See “A Closer Look: Undo, Redo, and Delete Last” on page 44 for more information.

Edit Button

The EDIT button brings up a menu of common editing functions available with the SDR24/96. When the EDIT button is pressed, all armed tracks are unarmed and the Record Ready buttons are used to select tracks for editing. Upon exiting edit

mode, all the Record Ready buttons are cleared.

Edit actions are performed using a clipboard:

EDIT

♦Some edit operations move or copy selections from the arrangement to the clipboard.

♦Some edit operations move or copy selections from the clipboard to the arrangement.

The edit operations can also be performed with or without splicing. Where appropriate, the option is given to splice or not before each edit operation.

Note: Edit operations for Delete, Cut, and Copy are restricted to region selections. The selected region consists of the audio on the selected tracks between locators 3 and 4 (the punch area). You can use the REHEARSE button to set the locator points exactly where you want them before commiting to the desired edit.

Delete

This operation deletes the audio in the selected region on the selected tracks. It

does not delete the audio from the hard drive, so you can undo this action.

♦	The clipboard content is unchanged.
