Erasing a single track
You can erase a track simply by specifying the
respective track number. When you erase a track, the
total number of tracks on the MD decreases by one and
all tracks following the erased one are renumbered.
Since erasing merely updates the TOC, there is no need
to record over material.
To avoid confusion when erasing multiple tracks, you
should proceed in order of high to low track number to
prevent the renumbering of tracks that have not been
erased yet.
1 Turn AMS until the track number you want to erase
appears in the display.
2 Press EDlT/NO repeatedly imtil "Erase ?" appears
in the display.
The track number you selected starts flashing in the
music calendar.
3 Press YES.
When the track selected in Step 1 has been erased,
"Complete" appears for a few seconds and the total
number of tracks in the music calendar decreases by
one.
If you erase a track during playback, the track
following the deleted track begins playing
afterwards.
4 Repeat Steps 1 to 3 to erase more tracks.
To cancel the Erase Function
Press EDIT/NO, ■, or turn AMS to change the track number.
Note
If "Erase!! ?"appears in the display, the track was recorded or
edited on another MD deck and is record-protected. If this
indication appears, press YES to erase the track.
Erasing all tracks on an MD
Erasing a recordable MD deletes the disc name, all
recorded tracks, and titles (see page 29).
1 While the deck is stopped, press EDIT /NO
repeatedly until "All Erase ?" appears in the display.
