Editing Recorded MDs
You can specify a portion within a track and erase the portion with ease. It is convenient when erasing unnecessary sections after recording satellite broadcast or FM broadcast.

For frame, the number of frames appears when you turn the AMS control; for second and minute, “s” or “m” flashes in the display.

Press MENU/NO or p.
Note
If “Impossible” appears in the display, this means:
–You specified point B comes before point A. Point B should be specified after point A.
–The specified portion cannot be erased.
This sometimes happens when you’ve edited the same track many times, and is due to a technical limitation of the MD system, not a mechanical error.
