Check the manual under "undo", it is explained there. Basically, a short-press undo removes whatever was overdubbed *after* that point in the loop. That is useful if you have overdubbed something in the loop and screwed up at the end. You want to take out that clam without hearing it again, but you don't want to take out the stuff you played before it that was right. So as the loop is playing, right before the bad bit comes you tap undo for a short-press and the overdubbed stuff after that point is removed. Before that point is kept. Then you could turn overdub back on and correct it on the next pass or something. Short-press undo's won't remove the whole layer and take you back to previous versions. A long-press undo is probably what you are actually trying to do. That is where you hold the button for half a second and the entire overdub layer is removed, taking you back to the previous version. If you have enough memory, you can go all the way back to the original before you started overdubbing on it. Also, pay attention to how many layers you have actually overdubbed! Sometimes you might start an overdub just before the loop end, go all the way through the loop, then end it just past the startpoint again. Then you've actually got three layers of overdubs, when you might have thought you only did one! So it will take three Undo press in that case. When you understand how Undo works, and what you need to pay attention to, it is quite easy to control it. kim ______________________________________________________________________ Kim Flint | Looper's Delight kflint@loopers-delight.com | http://www.loopers-delight.com
