“Edit Menu” appears in the display.
2 Turn AMS (or press . / > repeatedly) until “All
Erase ?” appears, then press AMS or YES.
“All Erase ??” appears in the display.

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
1 While the deck is stopped, playing, or paused,
press MENU/NO.
“Edit Menu” appears in the display.
2
Turn AMS (or press
.
/
>
repeatedly) until “A-B
Erase ?” appears, then press AMS or YES.
3
Turn AMS (or press
.
/
>
repeatedly) until the
number of the track containing the portion to be
erased appears, then press AMS or YES.
“-Rehearsal-” and “Point A ok?” alternate in the
display and the deck repeatedly plays several seconds
of the track from the point AMS or YES was pressed.
4
While monitoring the sound, turn AMS (or 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
(1 frame = 1/86 second).
The time indication (minute, second, and “f ” (frame))
of the current point is displayed and the deck plays
several seconds of the track to that point repeatedly.
* When recording in Stereo mode, you can shift the starting
point by 2-frame intervals (in Monaural mode and LP2
Stereo mode) or by 4-frame intervals (in LP4 Stereo
mode).
To find a point quickly
Specify a unit (minute, second, or frame) by which the
MD is advanced when you turn AMS (or press
./
> repeatedly).
To do this, press
m/M in step 4 repeatedly to select
minute, second, or “f” (frame). The selected unit
flashes in the display.
5 Repeat step 4 until you have located point A.
6 Press AMS or YES to enter point A.
“Point B set” appears and the deck starts playing from
point A until the track ends.
7 Continue playing the track or press M to locate
the ending point of the portion to be erased (point
B), then press AMS or 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 have located point B.
9 Press AMS or 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
If “Impossible” appears in the display, you cannot erase a
portion of a track. This happens when you have edited the same
track many times.
This is due to a technical limitation of the MD system and is not
a mechanical error.
