Tips:

The erase operation erases only sound data, therefore, by erasing track data of a specified area between "ABS 0" and "REC END", the REC END point does not change and the time code is not affected.

1. Store the "SOURCE IN" and "SOURCE OUT" points.

See "Chapter 6: Storing time data" for details about how to store these points.

2. If necessary, trim these edit points using the preview function.

See "Chapter 8: Preview function" for details about how to trim edit points.

3. While stopped, press the [AUDIO EDIT] key to show "Erase & Clip?" (or "Erase?" when selecting a "Tape mode" audio file) on the display, followed by the [ENTER/YES] key.

By pressing the [ENTER/YES] key, "Sel.Erase TRK?" appears on the display.
