Deleting Performance Data (Track Cut)

This operation cuts playback data from the specified area. When playback data is cut using this operation, any playback data following the data that was cut will move forward to fill the gap. To use the analogy of a tape recorder, this operation is like cutting an unwant- ed portion out of an audio tape, and splicing the ends.

*Do not leave sound within 0.5 seconds before or after the area to be cut. Any sound which was within 0.5 seconds of the cut data will not playback.

*While it may seem that the performance data has disap- peared, the data itself is not deleted from the hard disk. Thus, even when you carry out the Track Cut procedure, the free disk space shown in the display does not change.

1.Press [TRACK] several times until “TRK Track Cut ?” appears in the display.

2.Press [YES].

3.Press CURSOR [ ] several times until “TRK Cut Tr.=?-?” appears in the display.

4.Press [STATUS] for the track on which you want to carry out Track Cut.

The STATUS indicator will light red.
