needs a little blow on its connectors.
Note that when a patch is overwritten, a backup copy of the previous version is kept. You can use a
SD-card reader on your personal computer to remove the latest version of the patch and restore the
backup copy (Sorry… Ambika does not come with its own version of Norton Commander).
Clipboard and version manager.

The following commands are available for the select object (*part 1 program* in the example given
above):
copy
(*S1*) copies the current item to a
clipboard
. You can use it to temporarily hold in memory a
version of a patch, or to copy a patch from one part to another.
swap
(*S2*) exchanges the content of the
clipboard
with the current item. This allows you to quickly
go back and forth between two versions of a patch.
paste
(*S3*) replaces the current item by the content of the
clipboard
. Note that there are actually 4
clipboards, one for patches, one for multis, one for programs and one for sequences.
<
(*S5*) reverts the current item to its previous content. This works like the
undo
function available on
most computer software. For example, if you create an amazing patch, and then load by mistake a
preset on top of it, you can use this function to go back in time and retrieve your creation.
>
(*S6*) works like a redo command. You can use it to cancel an undo command and move forwards
in the versions list.
keep
(*S7*) saves the state of the current item on the undo stack, so that you can get back to it at a
later point in time.
exit
(*S8*) exits the version manager.
