Editing with the TRACK EDIT Buttons

This section describes how to perform seven of the
most common track phrase and region edits using
the TRACK EDIT buttons, the cursor buttons, SHIFT
and the TIME/VALUE dial.

To clear an edit point, hold down CLEAR and press the desired IN, OUT, FROM or
TO button.

Once you’ve set a project’s IN, OUT, FROM and TO points, their buttons can be
configured so that pressing an edit point’s button:
