Erasing a single track

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 erased one are renumbered. Since erasing merely updates the TOC, there is no need to record over material.

zTo avoid confusion when erasing multiple tracks, you should proceed in the order of high to low track numbers to prevent the renumbering of tracks that have not been erased yet.

Example: Erasing B
