Dividing Songs

The Song Divide function allows you to divide songs into several independent songs. Songs can also be arranged as a program for playback. See Program Playback on page 60 for more information.

1.Locate the position where you want to divide the song and press the [PAUSE] button.

See Quick Search Functions on page 51 for how to locate the desired position.

2.Press the [EDIT] button and use the DATA dial to select the Song Divide function.

3.Press the [ENTER] button.

The display shows Divide EXE?

4.Press the [ENTER] button to divide.

Press the [EXIT] button to cancel.

The song is divided in to two. WritingTOC appears on the display as the TOC is updated.

If the song contained markers, those markers before the divide point stay with the original song and those markers after the divide point are renumbered and moved to the new song, as shown below.

When a song is divided, subsequent songs are renumbered. For example, Song 1 is divided into Song 1 and Song 2. The previous Song 2 then becomes Song 3, and so on.
