Can't use undo after saving changes
Can't use undo after saving changes
Same as subject.
Re: Can't use undo after saving changes
True... I believe that's always been the case with GoldWave.
Re: Can't use undo after saving changes
I've never used an audio program that would "undo" after "save" was applied.
I don't want to read the manual either, but, then, it isn't my problem, is it?

Re: Can't use undo after saving changes
Once you hit "Save", you lock it up. You can modify the track further if you wish, but you can't go back.
You have just discovered why we so frequently advise that it is best to make a copy of the original track, save it and put it away so it can not be molested in any way. Work on the copy.

And if harddrive space is no big deal, it's a smart idea to save the multiple revisions as separate copies along the way. Then if you need to "undo," you won't necessarily be forced to start at the beginning.donrandall wrote:You have just discovered why we so frequently advise that it is best to make a copy of the original track, save it and put it away so it can not be molested in any way.

Good point, Mathyou9.And if harddrive space is no big deal, it's a smart idea to save the multiple revisions as separate copies along the way. Then if you need to "undo," you won't necessarily be forced to start at the beginning.
What I do is to put my original file away then open a new sound window, perhaps reserving 10 minutes or so for a :60 sec spot. Instead of a new file for each process along the way, I do them one after another in sequence in the same file. I then make a copy of the finished product and FTP it to a client in whatever form he requests.

For every little editing.
Save as a new wave file!
