Chapter 8: Edit Technique (Edit Mode)

The DPS16 provides various editing capabilities in Edit mode. You can specify a range of audio data in a track to

copy to a different position. You can also delete the specified portion of data. For example, you may use the same

chorus or guitar phrase repeatedly, or you may move all track data to a different position to change the structure of

the song. Edit mode enables you to edit audio data recorded in the tracks of the DPS16 using various methods.

This chapter describes the various editing techniques available in Edit mode.

Using an Edit mode screen

Press the [EDIT] key when the transport section is stopped. The DPS16 enters Edit mode, displaying the following

EDIT screen. The Edit mode screen contains the following information:

1/2 FROM track/TO track

These fields indicate “FROM track” (currently selected source track) and “TO track” (a destination track).

If you selected an edit command that functions only for certain tracks, field (2) indicates an “EDIT track” (a

track to be edited).

3 Select

This field enables you to select a type of edit command.

4 Now Time

Data is overwritten or inserted at this time position. In Edit mode, this field indicates the current position of the

transport section, but you can change the value here.

5/6 In/Out

These are fields to specify the IN/OUT points. In Edit mode, these points specify a region for the edit opera-

tion. Move the cursor to these fields to change the IN/OUT points.
