Erasing a portion of a track
You can easily erase a portion of a track by specifying the
starting and ending points of the erasure.
This is useful for erasing the unnecessary portions of a
track recorded from a satellite or FM broadcast.
Example: Erasing portion “B2” of the second
track
AAA BBB
B1 B3B2
CCC
1 2 3
AAA
B1 B3
CCC
1 2 3
BBB
1 While the deck is stopped, playing, or paused,
press MENU/NO.
“Edit Menu” appears in the display.
2 Press ./> repeatedly until “A-B Erase ?”
appears, then press YES.
3 Press ./> repeatedly until the number of the
track containing the portion to be erased appears,
then press YES.
“-Rehearsal-” and “Point A ok?” alternate in the
display and several seconds of the track from the point
where you pressed YES play back repeatedly.
4 While monitoring the sound, press ./>
repeatedly to locate the starting point of the
portion to be erased (point A).
You can shift the starting point by 1-frame* intervals
(stereo mode) (frame = 1/86 second). The time
indication (“m (minute),” “s (second),” and “f (rame)”)
of the current point is displayed and several seconds
of the track from that point play back repeatedly.
*
When recording in monaural or LP2 mode, you can shift the
starting point by 2-frame intervals. When recording in LP4
mode, you can shift the point by 4-frame intervals.
To find a point quickly
Specify a unit (minute, second, or frame) by which the
MD is advanced when you press ./>
repeatedly.
To do this, press m/M in step 4 repeatedly to select
“m,” s,” or “f.” The selected unit flashes in the
display.
5 Repeat step 4 until you’ve located point A.
6 Press YES to enter point A.
“Point B set” appears and several seconds of the track
from point A play back repeatedly.
7 Continue playing the track or press M to locate
the ending point of the portion to be erased (point
B), then press YES.
“A-B Ers” and “Point B ok?” alternate in the display
and a few seconds of the track before point A and after
point B play back repeatedly.
8 Repeat step 4 until you’ve located point B.
9 Press YES to enter point B.
“Complete!!” appears for a few seconds and the
portion between point A and B is erased.
To cancel the operation
Press MENU/NO or x.

Note
In the following cases, “Impossible” appears and you can’t erase
a portion of a track:
• The point B you entered comes before point A.
• After repeated editing kf a track, it may become impossible to
erase a portion of the track any further. This is a technical
limitation of the MD system and is not a mechanical error.
