-[WORK IN PROGRESS] 
- 
- 
-The Utility Functions Menu is accessible by pressing MENU + GP Button #10, or the F1 button on the Wilba Frontpanel. ​ Some of these functions (eg: COPY, PASTE, CLEAR) are directly accessible from the Frontpanel without having to go though a menu. 
-=====COPY and PASTE===== 
-Press COPY to make a copy a portion of the currently selected track into the SEQ's copy buffer. ​ By default, the visible steps will be copied (ie: steps 1-16 if the SEQ's LCD is displaying the start of your pattern.) ​ The COPY function works this way in most modes - if you're in any mode other than EDIT view, the SEQ will switch to EDIT - Step View while the COPY button is held, and will revert back to the previous view when the button is released. 
- 
-While COPY is held down, you can select the range of steps that will be copied (remember: by default COPY copies the 16 visible steps). ​ Move Encoder #1 to select the first step in the range, and any other encoder (including the datawheel) to select the last step in the range. 
- 
- 
-===COPY/​PASTE In SONG Mode=== 
-COPY copies the song position. 
- 
-===COPY/​PASTE With MIXER MAPS=== 
-In MIXER MAP mode, COPY copies the entire current MIXER MAP into the copy buffer. ​ If you move to another Mixer Map and press paste, that map will now be identical to the one you copied. 
- 
- 
-=====MENU+COPY and MENU+PASTE===== 
-Press MENU+COPY to export all currently selected tracks into the /PRESETS folder on the SD Card. The resulting files are named COPY[track].V4T. ​  The [track] numbers in the filenames are independent from the actual track position - eg: if you select tracks 2, 4 and 6 on the SEQ, then press MENU+COPY, those tracks will be saved as COPY1.V4T, COPY2.V4T, and COPY3.V4T. 
- 
- 
-Press MENU+PASTE to import "​COPY[track].V4T"​ files from the /PRESETS folder into all selected tracks, starting from COPY1.V4T to (up to) COPY16.V4T - eg: if you select tracks 1 and 7 on the SEQ, then press MENU+PASTE, COPY1.V4T will be copied into track 1 on the SEQ, and COPY2.V4T will be copied into track 7. 
- 
-You can use these functions to quickly copy and paste tracks between patterns and sessions, to create temporary backups, to duplicate tracks, or whatever. 
-Note that you can also import these COPY[track].V4T files from the MENU->​Event->​PRESETS menu.  You may want to do this if you want to exclude certain parts of the preset. 
-=====CLEAR===== 
-=====MOVE===== 
-=====SCROLL===== 
-=====UNDO===== 
-A button is available to directly activate the UNDO function, but by default it is not assigned on the Wilba Frontpanel. ​ You can assign the function to a button by editing the [[hardwareconfig|MBSEQ_HW.V4 file]]. 
- 
-You can also access the UNDO function through the Utility Functions Menu (MENU+GP Button #10 or F1 Button). 
- 
-The UNDO function reverts the most recent COPY, PASTE, CLEAR, MOVE, SCROLL, or Random Generator operation
