Chapter 8: Edit Technique (Edit Mode)
The DPS16 provides various editing capabilities in Edit mode. You can specify a range of audio data in a track to
copy to a different position. You can also delete the specified portion of data. For example, you may use the same
chorus or guitar phrase repeatedly, or you may move all track data to a different position to change the structure of
the song. Edit mode enables you to edit audio data recorded in the tracks of the DPS16 using various methods.
This chapter describes the various editing techniques available in Edit mode.
