Deleting unnecessary audio data
from a song
In addition to audio data for a track, a song may also
contain "unused" audio data.
When a track is overwritten in this unit, the overwritten
audio data is not erased, but remains on the SD card.
Audio data that has been completely overwritten is
"unused" audio data.
You can delete such "unused" audio data by following the
procedure below.
As shown in the illustration, if old audio data is not
completely overwritten by new audio data, old audio data
cannot be deleted.
"Unused" old audio data in any virtual track that has not
been assigned to a physical track can also be deleted. (See
"Virtual tracks" on page 59.)
Follow the procedure below to delete "unused" audio data
and create room on the SD card for additional storage (this
operation cannot be undone).
