MDs Recorded Editing
Combining tracks (COMBINE)
This function allows you to combine any two tracks into a single track. The two tracks need not to be consecutive nor chronological. You can combine several tracks 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 track are renumbered.
You can also use this function when you want to delete unnecessary track numbers.
Example: Combining the second track and the fourth track
1 | AAA |
| 2 | BBB |
| 3 | CCC |
| 4 | DDD |

If both of the combined tracks have a track name, the name of the second track is erased.
1While the deck is stopped, playing, or paused, press MENU/NO.
“Edit Menu” appears in the display.
2Turn AMS (or press ./> repeatedly) until “Combine ?” appears, then press AMS or YES.
3Turn AMS (or press ./> repeatedly) until the number of the first track of the two to be combined appears, then press AMS or YES.
The display for selecting a second track appears and the deck plays the portion where joining will occur (the end of the first track and the beginning of the second track following it) repeatedly.
4Turn AMS (or press ./> repeatedly) until the number of the second track of the two to be combined appears, then press AMS or YES.
“Complete!!” appears for a few seconds and the tracks are combined. The deck starts to play the combined track.
To cancel the operation
Press MENU/NO or x.
Notes
•Tracks recorded in different modes (stereo, MONO, LP2 or LP4) cannot be combined.
•If “Impossible” appears in the display, the tracks cannot 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.
Moving tracks (MOVE)
This function lets you change the order of any track.
Example: Moving the second track after the third track
