Editing Recorded MDs

Erasing a single track

You can erase a track simply by specifying the respective track number. When you erase a track, the total number of tracks on the MD decreases by one and all tracks following the erased one are renumbered. Since erasing merely updates the TOC, there is no need to record over material.

To avoid confusion when erasing multiple tracks, you should proceed in order of high to low track number to prevent the renumbering of tracks that have not been erased yet.

Example: Erasing B

Note

If “Erase!! ?”appears in the display, the track was recorded or edited on another MD deck and is record-protected.

If this indication appears, press YES to erase the track.

Erasing all tracks on an MD

Erasing a recordable MD deletes the disc name, all recorded tracks, and titles (see page 27).

2Press YES.

All tracks in the music calendar start flashing.

3Press YES again.

When the disc name, all recorded tracks, and titles on the MD have been erased, “Complete” appears for a few seconds and the music calendar disappears.

To cancel the Erase Function

Press EDIT/NO or p.

Erasing a part of a track
