Access the Paste command by first pressing TRACK/EDIT, then pressing the Paste select button, and then

choosing Insert when you are ready to perform the operation. This editing function is another digital emulation

of analog tape editing. When you perform an Insert, the data on the clipboard is placed onto the track specified. Instead of replacing existing data as would happen with the Paste function, audio is moved to make room for the clipboard contents. This is similar to analog tape editing: you could cut the tape in two pieces, insert the piece of tape you wish to add between the two ends, and tape all three together. The previous data will be shifted later in time to make room for the new audio. Again, with the MDR24/96 you can perform an Insert onto just the selected tracks instead of all of them. Insert can be useful when you need to increase the length of a verse by copying the exiting portion and inserting it again to double the length. It can also be useful to insert some silence at the beginning of a track.

Guide Operation

Undo/Redo

The Undo/Redo operation allows you to revert to any stage in your editing process. You can experiment with different edits and then compare the results with the original to decide if you want to keep an edit or not. You can also use the Undo- Redo to correct a bad recording pass. The MDR24/96 keeps a record of the last 999 commands you performed on the current project since the last time the project was opened. These are stored in what is called a History List. Think of the History List as a record of every command executed from the beginning of the session to the present state of the MDR24/96. This means that you can perform 999 edits, and undo back to the very beginning of the editing session. Because you can redo edits as well, you can go back and forth until you are satisfied. The MDR24/96 does not remember the History list forever. If you open a new session you must either save the current state of the MDR24/96 or choose not to save, thus reverting the project to the last saved state. When you open the project again, the history list will be cleared. If you turn off the MDR, the history list will also be forgotten.
