CD-R/RW MASTER RECORDER CR500 (MENU mode: DISK UTILITY menu)

Deleting an unnecessary audio file [Delete File]

The [Delete File] menu item deletes an unnecessary WAV file on an unfinalized BWF disc. This menu item is not available with CD-DA discs and finalized BWF discs.

<Note>: After deleting an audio file, do not forget to rewrite the file system using the "Rewrite File Sys" menu item described on the previous page. However, each time you rewrite the system file, the number of remaining recordable files decreases by one and the remaining disc space decreases. Therefore, we recommend rewriting the system file after you complete all file editing operations.

If you attempt to eject an edited disc without rewriting the file system, the popup screen for rewriting the file system appears (see the previous page).

<Note>: A deleted file still exists as a "hidden file" on the disc. You can restore a hidden file by the "Restore Del File" menu item described on the next page.
