Chapter 10 Track and Phrase Editing

Track Move

This operation moves audio to a new location on the timeline, and simultaneously, to another playback track, if desired. This is useful for correcting timing mistakes that can occur during recording.

Example 1: Moving within the same track

	A		A
Start	End	To	Time

Example 2: Moving to a different track

B

B

Start End To Time

*Make sure the Track Move function does not end up leaving a remaining section of audio that is 0.5 seconds or shorter. Any sound left over as a result of Track Move that is 0.5 seconds or shorter will not be played.

1.Hold [SHIFT] and press [F2 (TRACK)].

2.Make sure “Track Edit Menu” appears in the display. If it does not, press [F1 (Tr/Ph)] once.

3.Press [F3 (Move)] for Track Move.

If you don’t see “Move” above [F3], press [PAGE] until “Move” appears, and then press [F3 (Move)].

4.The track SELECT buttons are used to select the source track(s) and the STATUS buttons are used to select the destination track(s). Press the Track SELECT button to specify the track to be moved. The SELECT button stops blinking, indicating it is the track to be moved.

Press the Track STATUS button for the desired destination track. The STATUS button turns red.

*If you want to select TR 1-12, press [FADER/MUTE] several times until the “TR” indicator lights.

If you want to select TR 13-18, press [FADER/MUTE] several times until the “TR” indicator blinks.

→“Switching the Fader Functions” (p. 71)

For example, if you wanted to move the section of audio from Track 3 to Track 7, you would first press the Track 3 SELECT button, the press Track 7 STATUS.

Alternate method:

a.Press [F1 (SelTr)].

b.Press [ ], [ ], [ ], and [ ] to move the cursor to the track you want to move.

c.Press [F3 (MARK)].

e.If [F2 (All)] is pressed, all tracks are selected to be moved.

f.Use the TIME/VALUE dial to select the desired V-Track for the destination track. The V-Track is indicated by the number to the right of the dash. For example, “1-1” indicates “Track 1, V-Track 1,” and “9L-1” indicates “Track 9, V-Track 1.”

*Do not designate V-Tracks that have already been specified as move destinations for other tracks.

g.Press [F1 (Back)].

5.Press [ ], [ ], [ ], and [ ] to move the cursor. Set the START, END, FROM, and TO values.

A quick way to enter edit points (START, END, FROM, and TO) is to create a locator for each edit point (43) before entering the edit screen. Then go to the desired edit screen (such as Erase, Copy, Cut). You can enter your edit points by pressing a LOCATOR button and then holding [SHIFT] and pressing [LOC 1] to enter that point as the START time, [SHIFT] + [LOC 2] to enter that point as the END time,

[SHIFT] + [LOC 3] to enter that point as the FROM time, or [SHIFT]+ [LOC 4] to enter that point as the TO time.
