11.Rotate the TIME/VALUE dial.
St (Start point)
Specifies the starting time of the copy range.
12.Press PARAMETER [ ]. “TRK Frm=” appears in the display.
13.Rotate the TIME/VALUE dial.
Frm (From point)
Specifies the time of the copy source playback data in relation to the “To” point. Normally you will set this to be the same as the Start point.
Using “Frm” Effectively
Normally, the data is copied starting at the speci- fied copy destination time. However, if you want to have the copy made with reference to a point within the designated range where a specific sound occurs, set this with “Frm.”
For example, suppose that you wish to copy a sound effect of a time bomb ticking and then exploding, and that you want to place the explo- sion at a specific timing location. Normally, in order to specify the copy destination time, you would have to calculate the time until the explo- sion occurs. In such cases, however, you can spec- ify “Frm” as “the copy source time at which the explosion begins” and “TO” (the reference time of the copy destination) as “the copy destination time at which you want the explosion to occur.” This lets you copy the data with the explosion placed with precisely the right timing.

An Easy Way to Specify the Time Settings
Times for the “St,” “Frm,” “End,” and “To” can be specified directly without having to display the Track Copy page. In Play condition, use the fol- lowing procedure.
1.Move to the beginning (“St”) of the copy source performance data.
2.Hold down [TRACK] and press [LOC1/5].
3.Move to the time location in the destination to which the performance data will be copied (“Frm”).
4.Hold down [TRACK] and press [LOC2/6].
5.Move to the end location of the copy source performance data (“End”).
6.Hold down [TRACK] and press [LOC3/7].
7.Move to the basic time of the copy destination (“To”).
8.Hold down [TRACK] and press [LOC4/8].
If you now access the Track Copy page, the times that were specified in steps
