Erasing a single track (Track Erase
Function)
You can erase a track simply by specifying the
respective track number.
When you erase a track, the
total number of tracks on the MD decreases by one and
all tracks following the erased one are renumbered.
Since erasing merely updates the TOC, there is no need
to record over material.

To avoid confusion when erasing multiple tracks,
you should proceed in order of high to low track
number to prevent the renumbering of tracks that
have not been erased yet.
