396 Chapter 11 Sample Editor
Space is reserved on the hard disk for armed tracks, which is not available for undo
files. Logic therefore automatically switches off record-ready status for audio tracks if
the disk is nearly full, thereby making edits possible in the Sample Editor.
Sample Editor Undo Preferences
Several options that accompany the Sample Editor’s multiple undo functionality can be
found in the Audio preferences.
• Clear Undo History when quitting—switch this on to automatically delete the Undo
History for all edited audio files, when you exit Logic.
• Record selection changes in Undo History—switch this on if you wish to undo and redo
changes to selected area(s) in the Sample Editor.
• Record “Normalize” in Undo History—disable this parameter if you don’ want to create
any undo files once the Normalize function is invoked.
Note: As normalization is generally the last step in sample editing, this parameter (if
active) can destroy the undo history. As a safety feature, a warning pops up if an undo
history exists (and the switch is on), providing you with the opportunity to create an
undo file.
• Number of Undo Steps—limits the maximum number of recorded undo steps. Use the
mouse as a slider to adjust the step value.
• Store undo files in Song Folder—switch this parameter on if you would like the undo
history to be stored in a sub-folder alongside the song.
Note: This is switched on by default if the song is part of a project (see “Projects” on
page 59).
• Global undo file path—all undo history files are saved into a “global” location (a user-
defined folder) if the Store undo files in Song Folder option is not switched on.
