Checking the number of track events
The “
Checking the number of track events
” menu
enables you to check the number of events on each
track. Each track (including Additional tracks) of
recorder Programs consists of consecutive audio files
(and “zero” files). The number of events represents
the total number of audio files and 0 files. Each
track can contain up to 512 events.
If you are editing a song of typical length (about six
minutes), repeated editing operation does not
usually cause this maximum number to be exceeded.
(Exceeding this limit is called “
event number
overflow
.”) Even a 20-minute song will not cause
event number overflow. This is because the recorder
system always optimizes the data structure by
keeping the number of events low. However, if a
recording on a track is scattered in different areas
of the disk, or if you have made a very long recording
on a single track and performed many edits, you
should be wary of “
event number overflow
.”
To avoid this problem, use the “
Checking the number
of track events
” menu to check the number of events
on each track prior to recording or editing.
(1) While the recorder is stopped, press the [SETUP]
key to enter SETUP mode.
(2) Turn the Jog dial to select “No Of Event?” (“?”
flashes), and then press the [EXECUTE/YES] key.
The screen changes as follows, indicating the
number of events on track 1. (In this example, track
1 includes five events.)
