Erasing Part Of A Performance (Erase); Exchanging Performance Data Between Tracks (Exchange) - Roland VXpanded VS-880 Owner's Manual

Erasing part of a performance
(Erase)
This operation erases playback data from the specified area.
If this operation is used to erase playback data, even if play-
back data exists after the area that was erased, it will not be
moved forward. To use the analogy of a tape recorder, this
operation is like recording silence over an unwanted section
of the tape.
