Advanced Operations (VF80EX)
You can check the "start point" and "end point"
which are automatically registered after finishing
mastering. The following procedure is assumed that
a mastered program is loaded.
Checking the "Start point" and "End point"

part later by shifting the "End point" backwards

<Note>
You can edit the "Start point" and "End point" be-
fore creating an audio CD, allowing adjustment

point" of the new program created by the inter-
nal mastering function to desired time values
before creating an audio CD.
