getting same effects settings back??

[StevieM]

I've just recorded something ( one of my lessons) and transfered it to the pc.
Now I want to re-do it, with the same effects settings and everything, but can't remember what they are!!
Is there anyway I can find out what they were ( are?) from the track that's been recorded??
And no, I didn't save them as I was setting them
Cheers.

we often use track sheets were we write stuff down-it would be convenient if i did remember all the effects for each track but unfortunately it does not

I believe some higher end gear actually does that. It keeps track of settings.
I think a lot of apprentice sound engineers did just that for the engineers for years before they manned the faders themselves.

[StevieM]

That's what I thought. Bugger!!. Oh well. At least it wasn't anything too important, just a sound I liked, it'll teach me to write stuff down!

[Glenn Mitchell]

There is a sheet for that in the manual and others have made custom ones available on this forum (Somewhere)
They really are essential if you are getting serious about editing.

Is the lesson and your track still on the MBR? Could you go back and record another track??? If so you are money and you dont even know it! It should still be there in the effects section...if the effects light is lit underneithe your tracks. I hope this makes sense.
JUst be sure to store it under one of the user settings(U01 for example) for future use.
AND Id really like it if you were able to share it in the effects section here on the forum.

Sorry Sprocket, it's not.  To save me getting too bloody muddled, I always tend to just wipe everything off the machine when I'm done and start again ( After putting it on the laptop of course )
I'm really going to have to learn a bit LOT more about that Tardis machine

Any idea where I can find those, MGM? I'm sure if I just went through the postings I'd come across it, but a link's easier

So how bout transfering it all back to the MBR??
Seems like it should still be embedded...unless all you saved was the MP3.

Errr-----Yep When I've done something I just 'export', then on to laptop as MP3.
DEFINITELY going to learn a bit more, and quick!!

[Sprocket]

Yeah, I just save the finished MP3 too...its not like I wanna go back to all of that, just the backer.

Can you remember which patch you started with?
If so it should be somewhat easy to trace your steps and get something damn close.
Im pretty sure this lil problem of yours is really going to help you building patches in the future, and I for one, am looking forward to trying some of your new patches out...so please share?
