Undo/Redo Enable
O Although the Undo/Redo feature lets you backtrack only one step, you can repeat the Undo and Redo commands an unlimited number of times.
_ If you are using a removable media hard disk and do not have a fixed hard disk connected, it is recommended that you turn Undo/Redo OFF.
Use the Data Entry Control or INC/DEC buttons to select the zero crossing threshold. A setting of -96 dB will be the most sensitive; a setting of -30 dB will be the least sensitive. The selected zero crossing threshold is used in the auto-truncate function or whenever you manually select a zero crossing using the left/right cursor buttons. If auto truncate does not seem to be working well, try adjusting the zero crossing threshold.
v To Set the Zero-Crossing Threshold:
1.Press the Master button. The LED illuminates and the Memory Statistics screen appears.
2.Press the Setup function key (F3). A second row of function keys appears.
3.Press the Misc function key (F3). The Miscellaneous menu appears.
4.Move the cursor to Zero-X Threshold using the cursor buttons or by pressing the F5 function key.
5.Set the desired zero-crossing threshold using the Data Entry Control, or INC/DEC buttons.
6.Press the Exit button twice to return to the Memory Statistics screen.
Undo/Redo Enable
During many Sample Editing operations, the sample being processed is backed-up automatically and stored on the system drive. If you do not like the results of the processing, with Undo enabled you can call up the Undo function and restore the original sample from the system drive. (Ah, if only life itself were so simple.) Best of all, the processed sample is backed-up also. Therefore, if you decide you liked the processed version better after all, you can actually undo the Undo (Redo).
If you are running low on disk drive space, the display will inform you if there is not enough memory to back up a sample onto the system drive. You then have two choices: either free up some additional memory by erasing banks on the system drive, or disable the Undo/Redo using this function.
v To Enable and Disable Undo/Redo:
1.Press the Master button. The LED illuminates and the Memory Statistics screen appears.
2.Press the Setup function key (F3). A second row of function keys appears.
3.Press the Misc function key (F3). The Miscellaneous menu appears.
4.Move the cursor to Undo/Redo Enable using the cursor buttons or the F6 function key.
5.Enable or disable Undo/Redo using the Data Entry Control, or INC/ DEC buttons.
6.Press the Exit button twice to return to the Memory Statistics screen.
