cursor. Set the START and END values. You can enter
the START and END times in a number of different ways
such as using LOCATOR buttons, markers, the

A quick way to enter edit points (START, END, FROM, and
TO) is to create a locator for each edit point (43) before
entering the edit screen. Then go to the desired edit screen
(such as Erase, Copy, Cut). You can enter your edit points by
pressing a LOCATOR button and then holding [SHIFT] and
pressing [LOC 1] to enter that point as the START time,
[SHIFT] + [LOC 2] to enter that point as the END time,
[SHIFT] + [LOC 3] to enter that point as the FROM time, or
SHIFT+ [LOC 4] to enter that point as the TO time.

Track Cut

This operation cuts audio from the specified area. The area of
audio between the Start point and the End point is removed
completely, and the remaining section of audio is spliced on.
When a section of audio is cut, audio following the section is
moved earlier on the timeline to fill in the gap. Compared to
a tape recorder, this is like using a razor blade to slice out a
region of tape, and then splicing the two remaining ends
together.
