Chapter 10 Track and Phrase Editing
Chapter 10
If you are unhappy with the edit you made, press [UNDO].
“UNDO Level 1” will be displayed. Press [YES] to restore
your track(s) to their condition prior to the edit.
Track Copy
This operation copies audio to another location on the
timeline, and simultaneously, to another playback track, if
desired. This is convenient when you want the same chorus
to occur at several different points of the song, but you don’t
want to re-record it each time.

1.
Hold [SHIFT] and press [F2 (TRACK)].
2.
Make sure “Track Edit Menu” appears in the display. If it
does not, press [F1 (Tr/Ph)] once.

Press [F2 (Copy)] for Track Copy. If you don’t see
“Copy” above [F2], press [PAGE] until “Copy” appears,
and then press [F2 (Copy)].

The track [SELECT] buttons are used to select the source
track(s) and the [STATUS] buttons are used to select the
destination track(s). Press the Track SELECT button to
specify the track to be copied. The SELECT button stops
blinking, indicating it is the track to be copied. Press the
Track STATUS button for the desired destination track.
The STATUS button turns red. For example, if you
wanted to copy the section of audio from Track 3 to
Track 7, you would first press the Track 3 SELECT
button, then press Track 7 STATUS.
Alternate method:

If you would like to copy entire sections of your song, you
can press [F2 (All)] to select all tracks for copying.

e. Use the TIME/VALUE dial to specify the V-Track
for the destination. For example, “1-1” indicates
“Track 1, V-Track 1,” and “9L-1” indicates “Track 9,
V-Track 1.”
* Do not designate V-Tracks that have already been specified as
copy destinations for other tracks.
Press [F1 (Back)].
5.
Press [ ], [ ], [ ], and [ ] to move the
cursor. Set the START, END, FROM, and TO values.
A quick way to enter edit points (START, END, FROM, and
TO) is to create a locator for each edit point (p. 45) before
entering the edit screen. Then go to the desired edit screen
(such as Erase, Copy, Cut). You can enter your edit points by
pressing a LOCATOR button and then holding [SHIFT] and
pressing [LOC 1] to enter that point as the START time, [LOC
2] to enter that point as the END time, [LOC 3] to enter that
point as the FROM time, or [LOC 4] to enter that point as the
TO time.
