6. Press the [EXIT/NO] or [STOP] key repeatedly to exit the AUDIO EDIT mode.

Tips:

If you are not satisfied with the result, you can undo the erase operation.

Note that, however, you cannot undo the erase operation with a "Tape mode" audio file.

Tips:

The erased track data still remains in the clipboard after the erase operation is completed.

To check the erased track data, press the [PLAY] key while holding down the [STOP] key to perform the "SOURCE PLAY" function.

While the erased data remains in the clipboard, you can paste or insert the erased data by executing "Clip Paste?" or "Clip Insert?" described earlier in this chapter.

<Note>

With a "Tape mode" audio file, the erased track data does not remain in the clipboard. Therefore, if you are going to perform the paste or "SOURCE PLAY" function, "Empty Clipboard!" appears and the operation is canceled.
