It is possible to erase the last recorded track. It is also possible to erase a whole disc.

Erase procedures are possible only on an unfinallized CD-RW disc. If a CD-RW disc has been finalized, unfinalize it prior to erasure. Remember that it is not possible to perform any erase or unfinalize procedures on a CD-R disc.
