Erasing Performance Data

(Track Erase)

This operation erases playback data from the specified area. If this operation is used to erase playback data, even if playback data exists after the area that was erased, it will not be moved forward. To use the analo- gy of a tape recorder, this operation is like recording silence over an unwanted section of the tape.

*Do not leave sound within 0.5 seconds before or after the area to be erased. Any sound which was within 0.5 sec- onds of the erased 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 Erase proce- dure, the free disk space shown in the display does not change.

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

2.Press [YES].
