1Press MENU/NO while the recorder is stopped, playing, or paused.

“Edit Menu” appears in the display.

“-Rehearsal-“ and “Point A ok?” alternate in the display and the recorder repeatedly plays the portion of the track from the point where AMS or YES was pressed.

./> repeatedly) to locate the starting point of the portion to be erased (point A).

The position is moved one frame* (f) at a time (one frame = 1/86 sec.).

*Monaural tracks or tracks recorded in LP2 stereo move two frames at a time; LP4 stereo tracks move four frames at a time.

To quickly choose point A

“A-B Ers” and “Point B ok?” alternate in the display and a few seconds of the track before point A and after point B play back repeatedly.

“Complete!” appears for a few seconds, and the portion between A and B is erased.

To cancel the operation

Press MENU/NO or x.

Note

When “Impossible” is displayed, the portion of the track cannot be erased.

After repeated editing of a track, it may become impossible to erase a portion of the track any further. This is a technical limitation of the MD system, and is not a mechanical error.
