Moving, dividing, combining, and erasing MD tracks
Five basic functions
• All Erase
This function erases all the tracks and names to
initialize the MD. (“Blank Disc” is displayed.)
• Erase
This function erases the selected track.
• Move
This function moves the selected track to the
desired position.
• Divide
This function divides the selected track.
• Combine
This function combines the selected track and the
immediately preceding track.
Combining basic functions
Erasing part of a track – Divide and Erase
Divide the track at the end or beginning of the portion
you wish to erase. If necessary, repeat this operation
to separate the unwanted portion.
Then, erase the separated track.
Combining separately positioned tracks –
Move and Combine
If the tracks you want to combine are in different
locations, move the track to be merged to a position
behind the other track, then combine them.
Notes on combining tracks
• You cannot combine a digital recording track and an
analog recording track. (If you try, “Impossible” will appear
on the display.)
• You cannot combine tracks recorded in different recording
modes. You can combine only tracks recorded in the same
recording mode. (For example, a track recorded in MONO
mode cannot be combined with a track recorded in LP2
mode.)
Notes
• Information about the edited or erased contents is
recorded to the TOC of the MD when you eject the MD,
turn off the unit, or stop recording. Therefore, do not
disconnect the AC power cord (mains lead) or vibrate the
unit when the TOC indicator lit or flashing. (See page 25.)
• If the MEMORY, RANDOM, or 1TR indicator is lit in the
display, you cannot edit or erase any tracks. In such
cases, cancel the MEMORY, RANDOM, and 1TR
playback mode (see page 36) before starting the
operation.
