MR-8HD/CD Supplementary manual

Before creating an audio CD (playing back a stereo WAV file)

The unit provides the "2 MIX file playback mode". In this mode, you can playback a stereo WAV file converted for creating an audio CD in the CD-DA format. You can not only check the file but also set CUE points for track division.

<Note>: To activate the "2 MIX file playback mode", the current song has a stereo WAV file in the "2 MIX folder". If the song does not have a stereo WAV file in the "2 MIX folder", you cannot use the "2 MIX file playback mode". In the "2 MIX file playback mode", you can play back the stereo WAV file, as well as store or edit CUE points, but cannot record audio or make track/part editing.
