MR-8HD/CD Owner’s Manual (Part editing)
The time (or bar/beat/clock) value changes
in realtime as the recorder moves (i.e. when
it plays, fastforwards, rewinds, locates, etc.).
When you carry out the locate operation to
the LOCATE A or LOCATE B point and the
current position matches the locate point,
"LocA=" (or "LocB=") is shown to the left of
the current position information, as shown
below.
This shows that the recorder is now at the
LOCATE A (or LOCATE B) point.
1) Move the recorder to the desired point
by using the [PLAY], [REWIND] or [F FWD]
key.
2) While the recorder is at the desired point,
press the [STORE] key and followed by
the [LOCATE A/IN] or [LOCATE B/OUT]
key.
The old editing point is overwritten by
the new point. After setting the new
editing point, "LocA=" (or "LocB=") is
shown to the left of the current position
information, as shown left.
After setting the new editing points, you can
edit (erase, paste, move or exchange) data of
newly specified part.
On the screen for selecting the target track(s)
to be edited, you can see the current recorder
position information (in ABS time or bar/
beat/clock). The following screen example
shows the screen for selecting the track(s)
for part erasing.
The LOCATE A or LOCATE B point can be
changed while this screen is shown by fol-
lowing the procedure below.
You can play back audio of the "part" before carrying out edit operation. After setting the
LOCATE A and LOCATE B points, follow the procedure below for checking the part.
You can check the part before entering the menu mode, as well as while the part editing
screen is shown.
1) Press the [PLAY] key while holding down the [STOP] key.
The MR-8HD/CD starts playback between the LOCATE A and LOCATE B points (see also page
44).
2) During playback, raise the appropriate track fader(s) and the [MASTER] fader.
You can monitor only the "part" to be edited, so you can check the editing range.
You can change the LOCATE A and LOCATE B points during the edit operation, as well as
before entering the editing mode (see the following for details).
