Erasing a Track (Erase)

You can erase a track simply by specifying the respective track number. When you erase a track, the total number of tracks on the MD decreases by one and all tracks following the one that was erased are renumbered automatically.

For example, when you erase track 2, track 3 becomes the new track 2.

(To avoid confusion when erasing more than one track, start erasing from the last (highest numbered) track. This will prevent renumbering of the tracks you plan to erase.) This function allows you to erase tracks after recording, so there is no need to record over previously recorded material (as with cassette tapes).
