Creating a new Program

You can manage individual songs by setting multiple programs on the disk, as explained in the “Managing Songs by Program Selection” section of the “Before Starting” chapter. You can set up to 99 Programs. One Program is automatically created on the disk when the disk is newly formatted with this equipment.

Follow the steps below to create a new Program. The prerequisite of this operation is that the disk is in an “initial state” where there is only one Program on the disk.

<Note>

•When a new program is made, the same initial setup of the currently active program will be copied as the initial setting for the new program. If you wish to make a new program under the same settings as those of a previous program, call up the desired program to be copied before making the new program.

•A new compilation is possible only when the "Chain Play MD?" (Setup of the chain play mode) menu in the SETUP mode is set to "Off." If the [PGM SEL] key is pressed when the "Chain Play MD?" menu is set in other than the "Off" mode, the D2424 will enter the "Chain play mode." Before starting compilation, check that the "Chain Play MD?" is "Off" and if it is not, be sure to reset it to "Off."

1. Turn on the power to the recorder.

Upon starting up the recorder, “Initialize...”-> “Current IDE Drv” -> “Hard disk model number”-> “Storage mode (“Standard format” in this case) messages are followed with an ABS time base, then show the top of the Program (ABS 0). At this time, the current Program is indicated as “P01”.
