Editing Recorded MDs

Notes on Editing

You can edit the recorded tracks after recording, using the following functions:

•Erase Function allows you to erase recorded tracks simply by specifying the corresponding track number.

•Divide Function allows you to divide tracks at specified points so that you can quickly locate those points afterwards, using the AMS function.

•Combine Function allows you to combine two consecutive tracks into one.

•Move Function allows you to change the order of tracks by moving a specific track to a track position you want.

•Title Function allows you to create titles for your recorded MDs and tracks.

If “Protected” appears in the display

The deck could not edit because the record-protect slot on the MD is open. Edit after closing the slot.

When “TOC” flashes in the display

Do not move the deck or pull out the AC power cord. After editing, “TOC” lights continuously until you eject the MD or turn off the power. “TOC” flashes while the deck is updating the TOC. When the deck finishes updating the TOC, “TOC” goes off.

Erasing a single track

You can erase a track simply by specifying the respective track number. When you erase a track, the total number of tracks on the MD decreases by one and all tracks following the erased one are renumbered. Since erasing merely updates the TOC, there is no need to record over material.

zTo avoid confusion when erasing multiple tracks, you should proceed in order of high to low track number to prevent the renumbering of tracks that have not been erased yet.

When the track selected in Step 1 has been erased, “Complete” appears for a few seconds and the total number of tracks in the music calendar decreases by one.

If you erase a track during playback, the track following the deleted track begins playing afterwards.

4Repeat Steps 1 to 3 to erase more tracks.

To cancel the Erase Function

Press EDIT/NO, p, or turn AMS to change the track number.

Note

If “Erase!! ?”appears in the display, the track was recorded or edited on another MD deck and is record-protected.

If this indication appears, press YES to erase the track.
