Dividing recorded tracks

— Divide Function

You can use this function to mark track numbers after recording. You can also use this function when recording from tapes or radio programs and track numbers are not marked automatically, and want to mark tracks. The total number of tracks increases by one and all the tracks following the divided ones are renumbered.

Example: Dividing track 2 into two tracks
