• 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.

Before editing, press MD (or set CD/MD to MD) to switch the function of the buttons to MD.

If “Protected” appears in the display

The player 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 unit 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 player is updating the TOC. When the player finishes updating the TOC, “TOC” goes off.

Erasing Recordings

(Erase Function)

There are three methods for erasing recordings:

Erasing a single track

Erasing all tracks on an MD

Erasing a portion of a track

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.

Unlike cassette tapes, there is no need to record over a previously recorded track in order to erase it.

To 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.

Erasing a single track

You can erase a track and the track title simply by specifying the corresponding track number.

Example: Erasing B

1Turn AMS until the track number you want to erase appears in the display (or press the corresponding number button on the remote).

2Press EDIT/NO repeatedly (or ERASE once) so that “Erase ?” appears in the display.

The track number you selected starts flashing in the music calendar.

3Press YES (or ENTER).

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 one begins playing afterwards.

4Repeat steps 1 to 3 to erase more tracks.
