Overlap Recording

•If you set “OVERLAP REC” to “ON” in Step 6, deck B starts recording simultaneously from the point when there is 10 minutes remaining on the MD in deck A. This is useful when you do not want a track to be divided into two portions and recorded separately on two MDs while recording a music program, etc.

Note

To combine portions of the same track recorded on the MDs in decks A and B into a single track, perform the following operations.

1Move the longer portion from the MD on which it is recorded to the other MD using the 1Tr Move Function (see page 42).

2Combine the portions into a single track using the Combine Function (see page 35).

At this time, do not dub the longer portion or move the shorter portion in Step 1, as the sound may drop out part- way through the track after the edit.
