Step 10. Track editing
1. Track editing functions
The following functions are provided for track editing.
Copy Track: copy a track
Insert Track: insert a blank

Delete Track: delete a track
Reverse Track: flip a track end-for-end

In some cases, track editing functions may not be
usable if you have insufficient hard disk space. You
must allocate sufficient free space (equivalent to
the IN–OUT or TO–END time) for the track editing
operation.
Basic track editing procedure
1 Specify the region (time) that will be edited.
• In order to edit a track, you must first specify the
region (area of time) that will be edited.
• Move to the location that you wish to register.
• Press the [STORE] key, and then press one of the
following keys to register the corresponding
location.
[IN/LOC1] key: IN time
[OUT/LOC2] key: OUT time
[TO/LOC3] key: TO time
[END/LOC4] key: END time
The IN, OUT, TO, and END times are used as fol-
lows by each editing command.
How the editing commands use the IN, OUT, TO, and
END times
Depending on the “EditType,” the “Wave” button
may appear, allowing you to view the waveform as
you specify the location more precisely. (→p.82)
2 Access the [TRACK] “EditTrk” tab page.
3 Select the type of operation that you wish to exe-
cute (copy, insert blank, etc.).
Select “EditType.” Select the area to the right of the
“ ” button, and rotate the [VALUE] dial to select
the desired editing operation.
Alternatively, you can select the “ ” button and
press the [ENTER] key to display “Select EditTrack
Type,” and select the type of editing.
4 Select the track(s) that you wish to edit.
The LCD screen will differ depending on the “Edit-
Type” selection. The screen shown in step 2 is
when “EditType” is set to “CopyTrack.”
For “CopyTrack,” use “SourceTrack” to specify the
copy source track, “DestTrack” to specify the copy
destination track, and “Times” to specify the num-
ber of copies.
You can use “Wave” to view the waveform as
you specify the editing region.
5 Execute the selected track editing command.
Select the “Exec.” button and press the [ENTER]
key to execute the selected track editing command.
In the example shown in step 4, the data in the
IN–OUT region of track 1 will be copied three
times starting at the TO location of track 2.
