Editing a CF Card (continued)

More Functions

When recording an instrumental or vocal performance, you
might start recording somewhat earlier than the actual
beginning of the performance and stop recording somewhat
later than the actual end, so as not to lose any of the
performance.
In such cases, there may be an unwanted silence at the
beginning or end of the track.
The CD-2 lets you trim such silences from the beginning or
end of the track, so that the sound will begin the moment you
start playing the track.

MEMO

• If the CF card does not have enough remaining free

space, you won’t be able to execute the Trim In/Out
operation.

If you want to trim silent regions from the beginning or end of
a track, you must first specify the desired Start Point and End
Point. The silent regions will be trimmed as shown below,
according to the Start Point and End Point you specify.

Start Point:

The location at which the sound begins.

End Point:

The location at which the sound ends.

MEMO

• You can’t specify Start Point and End Point locations that

would cause the edited song to be less than four seconds
long.
