PlayOld appears along with the PlayNew soft button in the “Save this song?” dialog after the
recording process has been stopped. Pressing PlayOld will play the current song, minus the last,
but not yet saved, recorded data. The exception is when there is no previously recorded data
(that is, recording the rst track of a NewSong), then you will only have a Play soft button to
audition the recorded data just entered.
PlayNew/Play soft buttons allow you to play all of the recorded data, including data on the
track(s) you have just recorded.
Stop halts the playback of either the Old or the New version of the song you are currently
auditioning. Press the Stop soft button to stop the playback or recording, and reset the song’s
location to either the default Bar 1, Beat 1 value, or to whatever location you dened in the Locat
parameter.
Yes saves the data on the track(s) you just recorded. Whatever was played back when you
pressed PlayNew will be the version of the song to be saved when you press Yes. The “Save
New Song?” Dialog (shown below) will be displayed.
No returns you to the Song-mode page in which you were last recording, without saving any
unsaved changes to the current song.
