points on both the recorder and player. However, once
any three of these points are defined, the last point is
set automatically. For example, if you set the recorder
IN and OUT points, and the player IN point, the player
OUT point is set automatically.

flash and you cannot carry out automatic editing.
• The OUT point is before the IN point.
•All four of the recorder IN and OUT points and the
player IN and OUT points have been set.
Use the DELETE button to delete a redundant edit
point, or set the edit points correctly.
For details of deleting edit points, see the section “Deleting
an edit point” (page 5-6).
