Chapter 4: Editing Sequence

Using Edit Loop as an Undo Function

Because the Edit Loop function allows you the option of ignoring all

recording and editing that was done while Edit Loop was on, it

serves very well as an undo function.

For example, if you want to record a drum fill on bar 4 of a 4-bar

sequence, but you aren’t sure if you want to keep it, following these

steps will allow you to try the fill, then restore the sequence to its

original state if you don’t like it:

1. Fast forward to bar 4.

2. Press EDIT LOOP.

3. Set the Number of bars field to 1.

4. Press SOFT KEY 1, <Turn on>, which will turn the

Edit Loop on. Bar 4 will now repeatedly play in a loop.

5. Overdub your drum fill.

6. Press EDIT LOOP again.

7. If you didn’t like how the fill sounded, press SOFT KEY 2,

<Undo & off>, and the sequence will return to its

original state. If you want to keep the fill, press SOFT

KEY 1 (<Turn off>) and the sequence will now

contain the new drum fill.
