Take Undo
Suppose you have just recorded a 16th-note hi-hat beat over four bars, but then decide to can-
cel it. Normally  you would have  to  cancel the 64  notes one at  a time, repeatedly  calling the
undo function 64 times in a row. This is what Take Undo has been made for!
Take Undo/Redo is an extended undo/redo available while recording that allows you to cancel
or re-execute a whole group of actions at once.
Take Undo/Redo is the default undo/redo in MASCHINE. In the software use the common key-
board shortcuts for the Undo and Redo functions:
► To  cancel  your  last  group  of  actions,  press  [Ctrl]+[Z]  ([Cmd]+[Z]  on  macOS).  To  re-exe-
cute your last group of actions, press [Ctrl]+[Y] ([Cmd]+[Y] on macOS). You can also se-
lect  Undo  and  Redo  from  the  Edit  menu  in  the  Application  Menu  Bar  or  from  the  Edit
submenu in the MASCHINE menu.
The commands in the Edit menu additionally shows which action will be undone/redone!
Undo/Redo on the Controller
Both Step Undo and Take Undo are also available on your controller:
1. On  the  MASCHINE  hardware  controller,  perform  the  Take  Undo  operation  by  pressing
SHIFT + pad 1 (UNDO). To perform the Take Redo operation, press SHIFT + pad 2 (RE-
DO).
2. On  the  MASCHINE  hardware  controller,  perform  the  Step  Undo  operation  by  pressing
SHIFT + pad 3 (STEP UNDO). To perform the Step Redo operation, press SHIFT + pad 4
(STEP REDO).
Take Undo is available in following situations:
▪ Recording in Control mode
▪ Recording in Step mode
▪ Recording modulation
Outside  of  these  three  situations,  Take  Undo  has  the  same  effect  as  Step  Undo  (see
above).
