1. Press the AUTO PUNCH IN key. (Or, press the RECALL key, then press the AUTO PUNCH IN
key.)
The time value of the Auto Punch In point (bar/beat/clock) appears and the D-160 will enter the
data edit mode.
2. Use the HOLD/> key or the SHUTTLE dial to move among the digits of the time value (bar/beat/
clock), and use the JOG dial to change the value.
3. Press the STORE key. (The STORE LED lights up.)
4. Press the AUTO PUNCH IN key.
The changed time value (bar/beat/clock) is stored as a new Auto Punch In point, and the Time
Base indication appears on the display. (The STORE LED turns off.)
5. Press the F.FWD button while holding down the STOP button.
The D-160 will indicate the ABS END (the recording end) point of the selected Program.
* To make sure the data is erased completely, we recommend that you specify a time
after the ABS END point as an erase end point (Auto Punch Out point). To do so, press
the PLAY button following Step 5 so that the ABS time passes the ABS END time. Use the
ABS time, which is now positioned after the ABS END point, as an erase end point.
6. Press the STORE key, then the AUTO PUNCH OUT key.
The ABS END point is stored as a new Auto Punch Out point.
* To check the Auto Punch In/Out points, press the AUTO PUNCH IN/OUT keys
respectively. Or, press the RECALL key, then press the AUTO PUNCH IN/OUT keys
respectively. The display will indicate the time value (bar/beat/clock) stored for the
Auto Punch In point or Auto Punch Out point.

9. Press the EXECUTE/YES key.
This executes the erase operation. The display will indicate "Wait Erasing!". When the erase
operation is complete, the message "COMPLETED!" will light along with the message "Erase."
Press the EXIT/NO key, DISP SEL key, or the STOP button to restore the original display.
The sound data between the Auto Punch In point and the ABS END point has been erased.
