Roland VS-1824 Undo and Redo, Recording and Editing Operation Which Can Be Undone Undo

Chapter 4 Recording Operations

Undo and Redo

If you decide a recording is unusable just after you’ve recorded it, you can use Undo to instantly delete the recording. When using Undo, you need to specify the number of levels to be undone.

For example, suppose you use punch-in recording to create five consecutive recordings at the same location. Each of these recordings is given its own Undo level. If you decide you want to revert to the second of the five recordings, you would set the Undo level to three.

If after executing the Undo function, you decide you want the last (fifth) recording back, you can use Redo to get it back.

Recording and Editing Operation Which Can Be Undone (Undo)

Recording or editing operations performed after creating a song are recorded together with the song data as its operation history, and the data itself is also preserved 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 created. If you subsequently select song 1 again, the history 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.

Operations that can be undone are recording operations and each of the Track Edit operations. Check the list below for operations that cannot be undone.

• Song Edit operations (Optimize, Erase, etc.)

• Saves to User Effect Patches

If you use Undo to revert back to the second of five recordings, and then make a new recording, you will not be able to get the old recordings 3-5 back. If after making the new recording, you use Undo, you will be able to get back to the original second recording.
