Track Time Compression/
Expansion
This operation allows you to expand or compress the
playback time of a track or a group of tracks by a specified
time. You can specify the amount of time compression or
time expansion in a range of 75-125%, but the more extreme
the setting, the more the sound quality may be affected. We
recommend you try to keep the compression and expansion
within a range of 93-107 %.
fig.04-29
* Track Compression/Expansion creates new performance data
with a different playback time. For this reason, it cannot be
executed if there is not sufficient space on the current drive.
* It is not possible to use Time Compression/Expansion when
the elapsed time from the Start Point to the End Point or from
the Start Point to the To Point is less than 0.5 seconds .

shorter. Any sound 0.5 seconds or shorter will not be played.
