Checking What's at the End of a Disc

You don't have to record a whole disc at once. Until you finalize the disc, further recording is possible from the end of the last track you recorded (assuming there are fewer than 99 tracks already on the disc). Here's how to check what's on the last recorded section of the disc before recording new material:

	ë￿				1	Press ¦ RECORD.
	FADER	FINALIZE		REC		The recorder goes into record-pause mode.
	DIGITAL		AUTO/	TRACK NO.	1
		ERASE
	SYNCHRO		MANUAL	WRITE

						forward) buttons

2	1			❖ If you press ¦ RECORD again while the track's playing, the recorder
				jumps to the end of the track and goes into record-pause mode again.

REPEAT	3	Once the player is back in record-pause mode you

		If you decide you don’t want to record, just press 7 (stop).

Recording Blank Sections

This feature is useful when you want to put some space at the end of a recording session so that the next recording doesn't start after the last too closely, but use it wherever you need some blank space recorded on the disc. There are a couple of restrictions on using record mute: you can only record one mute per track; and you can’t begin a recording with a muted section—you can use it only after the recording has started, or at the end of a recording.

1 While recording or during record-pause mode, press ¥ REC MUTE.

A blank space of about four seconds is recorded, then the recorder goes into record-pause mode.

❖If you press and hold ¥ REC MUTE, you can record a blank for as long as you hold down the button.

❖Pressing ¥ REC MUTE, (without holding) in record-pause mode records four seconds of silence from the current position. Use this to create a space between tracks when recording in 1-track synchro mode, for example.

2 Press 7 (stop) to finish the recording session.

❖To restart recording, press either 3 (play) or 8 (pause).
