Combining Tracks
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.
Example: Combining the second track and the fourth track

Notes
•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.
•You cannot combine tracks which were recorded in different recording modes.
