2.DestTrack ..........................................................

[1...12, 1–2...11–12, 1–4...9–12, 1–6, 7–12, 1–12]

Selects the track that will be optimized.

For a 24-bit song, you will be able to select tracks 1–6.

3.Mode................................................................[Normal, Erase Silence, Erase Punch Noise]

Selects the type of optimization that will be performed.

4. Wave................................................................

Displays the waveform of the track audio. Here you can set the editing locations (IN, OUT) more precisely.

Normal: This operation re-creates the audio events in the IN–OUT region to prevent DiskBusy errors from occurring. If there are no gaps between one audio event and the next, or if the gap is small, the data will be combined into a single event. If there are extended gaps between audio events, the data will be re-created in a way that avoids wasting space.

By setting the IN–OUTregion to the beginning and end of the song, and executing the Optimize Track opera- tion, you can re-create the data in a form that will be ideal for hard disk access.

DestTrack

EditType: “Exp/CompTrack”

Expands or compresses the track data from the IN–OUTregion of the source track so that it will fit in the TO–ENDregion of the destination track, and copies it to the destination track the specified number of times.

This operation overwrites the data in the destination track.

There is a limit to the ratio of expansion or compression that can occur. If the IN–OUTregion and the TO–ENDregion are dramatically different in length, an error will occur when you attempt to execute. You should keep the ratio of the TO–ENDtime and IN–OUTtime within a range of 50–200%.

Erase silence: In an extended recording that contains significant amounts of silence, this operation erases the silent regions, and divides the areas containing sound into separate events.

Before execution

After execution

Levels lower than –36 dB will be considered as silence. Erase Punch Noise: This operation minimizes the “blip” of noise that occurs at junctions between recording (e.g., punch-in/out) and track editing. Set the IN and OUT times slightly before and after the click noise occurs.
