Operation
3. Inserting a blank space
into the track data
(Insert Track)
This operation inserts a blank space into the speci-
fied area (IN–OUT) of a recorded track. When the
blank is inserted, the original data will be moved
toward the end of the song to make room for the
blank. A blank can be inserted into a single track,
or into multiple tracks at once. If you wish to add
phrases to the middle of previously recorded data,
use this operation to insert a blank space of the
appropriate length, and then record onto that area.
■ Inserting a blank space into the IN–OUT area
of a track
As an example, here’s how to insert a blank space
into the IN–OUT area of track 1.
1 As described in “1. Storing IN, OUT and TO loca-
tions”, store the IN and OUT locations.
2 Press the [EDIT] key, and then press the [SONG/
TRACK] key several times to access the “Edit-
Track” display.
3 Press the [ ] key, and then press the [SONG/
TRACK] key several times to access the “Ins” dis-
play.
4 Rotate the [VALUE] dial to set the destination track
(the track into which the blank space will be
inserted) to 1.
5 Make sure that you have made the correct settings.
If you are sure that you wish to execute the Insert
Blank Space operation, press and hold the [ ] key
for approximately one second. When the blank
space has been inserted, the display will indicate
“Completed”.
6 Move to the IN location, and playback to check
that the blank space was inserted correctly. If it was
inserted into the wrong location, press the [UNDO]
key to return the data to the previous condition,
and then perform the Insert Blank Space operation
once again.
4. Erasing data from a
track (Erase Track)
This operation erases data from a specified area
(IN–OUT) of a recorded track. Single tracks or mul-
tiple tracks can be erased simultaneously. The
erased area will be blank, and even if recorded
data exists following the erased area, it will not be
moved forward.
■ Erasing data from the IN–OUT area of a track
As an example, we will show how to erase the IN–
OUT area of track 1.
1 As described in “1. Storing IN, OUT and TO loca-
tions”, store the IN and OUT locations.
2 Press the [EDIT] key, and then press the [SONG/
TRACK] key several times to access the “Edit-
Track” display.
3 Press the [ ] key, and then press the [SONG/
TRACK] key several times to access the “Ers” dis-
play.
4 Rotate the [VALUE] dial to set the destination track
(the track from which data will be erased) to 1.

If you are sure that you wish to execute the Erase
Track operation, press and hold the [ ] key for
approximately one second. When the data has
been erased, the display will indicate “Com-
pleted”. Press the [ ] key to restore the previous
display.
6 Move to the IN location, and playback to check
that the data was erased correctly. If the wrong
data was erased, press the [UNDO] key to return
the data to the previous condition, and then per-
form the Erase Track operation once again.
