Once a track is loaded into a track index, it is removed from the “pool” of tracks available for direct
loading, but it may be moved from its current track index position to another track index position. If a
track from the project is already loaded into a track index, then choosing (scrolling to) that track name in
the list of tracks will cause the MMP to ask if you want to Move that track to the currently selected Track
index. If a track is moved from its current track index position to a new track index by this method, the
previous Track index will then be empty and will show *Blank* when viewed using the TRACK key
(View Track state). If you do not wish to move a currently loaded track into an empty Track Index, use
the arrows or Wheel to scroll through the list of available tracks to find currently unloaded tracks which
may then be loaded into the empty track index. If track information is stored into a track location that is
already occupied by a previously loaded track, the previously loaded track is automatically “unloaded.”
Press TRACK again (or press CLR) to exit the Track state and return the MMP-16 to the Normal state.
Viewing Tracks
To view which tracks are currently loaded, press TRACK, which puts the MMP-16 into the View Tracks
state. Use the Wheel, the arrow keys, or the Select keys to select which track index to view. If nothing is
loaded for a given track, the word “*Blank*” is displayed for that track in the LCD.
Unloading Tracks
To “unload” a loaded track and return the track to the “blank” state, while returning the loaded track back
to the pool of unloaded tracks, put the MMP-16 into “view tracks” mode by pressing the TRACK key.
Select the track you wish to unload, and press SHIFT+TRACK. The displayed track will be “unloaded”,
and the word “*Blank*” will appear in the display.
Deleting Tracks from the Disk
To delete a displayed track, enter the Load Tracks state by pressing the LOAD TRACK key, and
descending through the project/file hierarchy as detailed above. Select the track you wish to delete, and
press SHIFT+LOAD TRACK. Deletion simply removes the track edit information (the “EDL”), not the
associated sound files, so very little disk drive space is reclaimed by this operation. However, sound files
not associated with any track edit information may be deleted from the disk by using the Disk Cleanup
function (found in Setup Menu 720). This is the typical method by which space on a given disk drive
volume is reclaimed. The other method is by using Tape Mode or Auto Cleanup Record mode on an
MMR-8 recorder to record over existing material.
Backup
Pressing SHIFT+SLIP places the MMP into the Backup state so that a backup copy of the currently
displayed project or track can be made to any mounted drive volume. The Backup state may only be
accessed via the Load Track state by choosing (scrolling to) the desired Project and then pressing SHIFT
+ SLIP to enter the Backup state. The three Backup options will be displayed in the LCD menu,
corresponding to three styles of Backup. Use the Up/Down arrow keys or the Wheel to toggle between the
three Backup options. The three Backup menu items allow for choosing either normal, Tape Mode, or
OMF Export style backup. Use the Wheel or Up/Down arrow keys to switch between these three menus
after entering the Backup state.
Normal backup will copy the project or track file including all edit information and associated audio
clips to the target drive.
