Deleting the unnecessary file in a song

Each song has two WAV file: one for track data, while the other for undo/redo operation. The latter file is called "undo WAV file" and allows undo/redo operation. Executing undo operation consumes the space of the card. Therefore, the more often you execute undo/redo, the remain- ing space becomes smaller.

If you decide not to use the undo function in the recording process, you can delete only the undo WAV file which is not necessary now.

By deleting the undo WAV file, you can increase the remaining (recordable) space of a song.

<Notes>

•You cannot delete the undo WAV file of a song which is protected. To delete the undo WAV file of such a song, release the protection before deleting the undo WAV file.

•Note that you cannot undo deleting the undo WAV file.

•By deleting the undo WAV file, you can never execute the undo/redo function for the previous recording/editing.

When you make recording/editing after deleting the undo WAV file, a new undo WAV file is created. You can undo/redo recording/ editing made after deleting the undo WAV file.
