No Undo Steps

Recommended Posts

I've researched the forum and the undo steps issue seems to not have been solved.

 

Like me and some others, at random times, Logic will not let me undo, saying "Command not available because there are no undo steps", however I definitely just did some steps.

 

Anyone know why this might happen at random? Or how to solve it? Or prevent it from happening again?

 

If this doesn't get resolved, I may have to go to Pro-Tools. Seriously. I can't run a professional studio while tracking someone and then accidentally erase their recent recording and not be able to undo the delete and bring it back.

How did you erase your recording exactly? If you actually removed the audio file from the drive (destructive operation) then no undo steps would bring it back, no matter what DAW software you're using. If you've removed only the audio region from the Tracks area (non-destructive operation) then you can find the recording in the Project Audio Browser, drag it back and paste it at the original recording position.

 

As for the undo issue, it would help if you can give us a specific example of an operation that wasn't logged in the undo history. You can click the Edit menu to see the last undo step logged in (under Undo) or open the Undo History.

Just saw this. Sorry for my delay. I have a project opened right now and it happened again. I did some editing (cut a region, pasted to a new track). Logic will not let me undo this action and undo my cut to the region.

 

I have the undo history open. There’s 87 current undo steps and it won’t let me undo any of them.

 

Do you know what would cause this? Something in admin? Something wrong in background files? It does this every week or so. Please help

I know that if you record something and hit Delete, you can get it back. If you Command Z it is gone as soon as you record again. But I'm with you. There are some things that happen in Logic that get me in trouble compared to Pro Tools. I KNOW that it's me, but I have not figured out what I should do differently to keep safe.
