8 – Editing Tracks
Editing on a conventional tape recorder in the past required advanced
techniques, but with this unit editing tracks is easy and accurate. Moreover,
with a tape recorder, an editing error could not be undone, but this unit uses
nondestructive editing, allowing you to edit without altering the original data.
This means that the undo function can be used to correct an edit easily. (See
“Undoing operations (undo)” on page 58.)
Overview of track editing
This unit has the following track editing functions.
•
CLONE TRACK (duplicate a track)
•
CLEAN OUT (erase a track)
•
SILENCE (erase part of a track)
•
CUT (remove part of a track)
•
OPEN (insert a silent section)
Editing points
Among track editing functions, SILENCE, CUT and OPEN use the IN and OUT
points for editing. These are the same as the IN and OUT points used for repeat
playback.
For instructions about how to set IN and OUT points, see “Setting IN and OUT
points” on page 65.
