8 - Editing Tracks Editing on a conventional tape recorder in the past required advanced techniques, but with this unit editing tracks is easy and accurate. Moreover, with a tape recorder, an editing error could not be undone, but this unit uses nondestructive editing, allowing you to edit without altering the original data. This means that the undo function can be used to correct an edit easily (see "Undoing the last operation (single undo)" on page 50). Overview of track editing This unit has the following track editing functions. •• COPY/PASTE (copy and paste) •• COPY/INSERT (copy and insert) •• MOVE/PASTE (move and paste) •• MOVE/INSERT (move and insert) •• OPEN (insert a silent section) •• CUT (remove part of a track) •• SILENCE (erase part of a track) •• CLONE TRACK (duplicate a track) •• CLEAN OUT (erase a track) Editing points Among the track editing functions, COPY/ PASTE, COPY/INSERT, MOVE/PASTE and MOVE/INSERT use the IN and OUT points as editing points. They also use the current position when the editing operation is begun as the TO point. SILENCE, CUT, and OPEN use the IN and OUT points. These IN and OUT points are the same IN and OUT points used during repeat playback. See "Setting IN and OUT points" (on page 55) for instructions about how to do this. IN point The IN point is the starting point for the part of the track subject to track editing. Press the IN/OUT key to open the I/O SETTING screen. The IN point is saved as the time when the F3 (IN) key is pressed. OUT point The OUT point is the ending point for the part of the track subject to track editing. Press the IN/OUT key to open the I/O SETTING screen. The OUT point is saved as the time when the F4 (OUT) key is pressed. TO point The TO point is used as the PASTE destination point for COPY and MOVE operations. The position where playback is currently stopped before opening the TRACK EDIT screen is set as the TO point. The IN, OUT and TO points can also be changed on various editing screens. Basic editing procedures 1 When the recorder is stopped and the Home Screen is open, press the MENU key to open the MENU screen. 2 Use the DATA wheel to select the TRACK EDIT menu, and press the F4 (¥) key to open it. 3 Use the DATA wheel to select the desired track editing function, and press the F4 (¥) key to open that function's screen. 58 TASCAM DP-008
