Combining Tracks (COMBINE)
This allows you to combine any two tracks into a single track. The two tracks do not have to be consecutive to be combined. Tracks from the end of the track order can be combined with those in the front. Several independently selected portions of tracks can be combined into a single track. When two tracks are combined, the tracks are reordered and unneeded track numbers are deleted.
Notes
•Only tracks of the same recording mode (stereo, monoural, LP2 stereo, or LP4 stereo) can be combined.
•If “Impossible” appears in the display, the tracks can’t be combined because repeated editing has been done to the track(s). This is a technical limitation of the MD system, and is not a mechanical error.
•It is impossible to use the “Undo?” function when combining multiple tracks, so make sure to be careful before completing the combination.
