Dividing a track (Divide)

You can divide a track with a track mark while playing, creating a new track from the part following the track mark. This function can be set on the recorder only.

Note

You cannot divide a track if:

the track has been transferred from a computer.

the track has been recorded in Hi-MD mode using the MD Simple Burner software.

the dividing point is at the beginning or end of the track.

the division would cause the total number of tracks on the disc to exceed the maximum allowed (2,047 tracks for a disc used in Hi-MD mode or 254 tracks for a disc used in MD mode).

1While playing or pausing, press T MARK at the point you want to mark.

You can make fine adjustments to the track mark position before making the actual division.

1While playing or pausing, press T MARK for 2 seconds or more.

Four seconds of the track from the point T MARK is pressed is played back repeatedly.

“MARK ON” appears in the display and the track is divided.

You can use the Speed Control function (page

53)during the Divide Rehearsal function. This allows you to reduce the playback speed to carry out the division more accurately.

Note

It is recommended that you use the recorder to divide long tracks recorded in LinearPCM. Transferring such tracks and dividing them on the computer may require extremely long time.
