Levels of Undo and Memory
Because Pro Tools needs to keep track of the
playlists for all tracks that are edited, the use of
multiple levels of Undo can be memory inten-
sive. You can lower the Levels of Undo setting
(Editing Preferences) in Pro Tools to reduce the
amount of system memory (RAM) used by the
Undo queue. If you have plenty of memory
available for Pro Tools, you can use a higher Lev-
els Of Undo
setting.
To set the Levels of Undo in Pro Tools:
1 Choose Setup > Preferences and click the
Editing tab.
2 Click in the Levels of Undo field and type a
value between 1–32.
3 Click OK.
Use the Undo History window to view a
queue of undo operations and return to a
previous state.
