DISCARD (SHIFT+ERASE)

The ERASE key's shift function will discard material either side of the IN/OUT area but will
not slip any subsequent audio.
Pressing DISCARD will show this LCD:
Pressing EXECUTE will complete the action.
The main use for DISCARD is to get rid of any rubbish in a cue before a certain point and
after a certain point. For example, you may have a sound effect of a door slam which you
recorded especially and, either side of the effect is talking, background noise and other
such noises. To get rid of this, mark the start and end of the door slam and press
DISCARD (SHIFT+ERASE) - this will keep the slam and remove the unwanted material
either side of the IN/OUT marks.
Because this function's primary use is purely to clear out unwanted 'handles', you cannot
discard the material either side of the IN/OUT marks to a clipboard or a library. If, for some
reason, you really want to keep this material for later, you should mark these regions
specifically and use ERASE and place them in a clipboard or library.
