Combining Recorded Tracks (Combine Function)

Use the Combine Function to combine tracks on a recorded MD. The two tracks to be combined need not to be consecutive and the latter track to be combined can be the track which comes before the former one in the track number order. This function is useful for combining several songs into a single medley, or several independently recorded portions into a single track. When you combine two tracks, the total number of tracks decreases by one and all tracks following the combined tracks are renumbered.

Example: Combining B and D
