5 - Song Management

Deleting unnecessary audio data

from a song

In addition to audio data for a track, a song may also

contain "unused" audio data. When a track is overwritten

in this unit, the overwritten audio data is not erased,

but remains on the SD card. Audio data that has been

completely overwritten is "unused" audio data.
As shown in the illustration, if old audio data is not

completely overwritten by new audio data, old audio data

cannot be deleted.

"Unused" old audio data in any virtual track that has not

been assigned to a physical track can also be deleted. (See

"Virtual tracks" on page 56.)
Follow these procedures to delete "unused" audio data

and create room on the SD card for additional storage (this

operation cannot be undone).
1. When the recorder is stopped, press the MENU

button to open the

MENU

screen.

2. Use the JOG/DATA dial or the CURSOR (5/b/g/t)

buttons to select (highlight green)

SONG

, and then

press the F4 (t) button.
The

SONG LIST

screen opens.
