When a track mark is erased when you combine two tracks, the title and recording date of the second track changes to those of the first track.

Note

When you erase a track mark between the two consecutive tracks that are assigned into different groups, the second track is re-assigned into the group containing the first track. In addition, if you combine a track that is assigned to a group with a track that is not assigned to a group (two consecutive tracks), the second track takes the same registration setting as the first track.

Notes

•By formatting a disc, all data (including non- audio data) will be erased. If you think a disc contains such data, insert the disc into the recorder and connect the recorder to the computer to check the contents of the disc.

•If you format a disc, the transferred tracks on the disc will also be erased and the number of transfer authorizations for those tracks will be decreased by one. To prevent the reduction in transfer authorizations, restore the transfer authorization by transferring the tracks to the computer again before formatting the disc.

•The operation mode set in the “Disc Mode” menu is applied to a blank 60/74/80-minute standard disc used on the recorder even if a different operation mode was selected in the SonicStage software or a different operation mode appeared on the display after the disc was formatted by the SonicStage software.
