Tascam MD-CD1 owner manual Disc title input, Title input operation

11 – Title input

Titles can be given to the MD disc, and the tracks and groups on it, using the TITLE sub-menu on the MD menu.

NOTE

Just as with the editing menu, after the title is selected and entered on the disc, and TOC lights up on the dis- play, if the power is turned off, the U-TOC will not be recorded onto the disc, and the titles will not be added.

Disc title input

1In the stop mode, select the “TITLE INPUT?” option on the TITLE sub-menu on the MD menu.

“Title> Disc” will be displayed.

2While “Title> Disc” is displayed, press the ENTER key or the ENT/YES key on the remote control.

The current disc title is shown on the charac- ter display, title edit mode is entered, and the cursor flashes.

NOTE

If there is no current title, nothing will be shown on the display, and only the cursor will flash.

If a group is set, the default title automatically created by the MD-CD1 will be displayed. Refer to “Creating a group” on page 44.

3Add a title following the guidelines below, and press the MD MENU key or the MENU key on the remote control to confirm.

NOTE

For discs with groups, set the Group mode to on before inputting a title. If a title is added with the Group mode off, the group settings may become inoperative.

Title input operation

In Title Input mode, the cursor flashes in the charac- ter display. Since it is more efficient to use the remote control to input titles, the following explanation will center on its use.

NOTE

It is even more efficient to connect a keyboard for title input. Refer to “Title input by keyboard” on page 47.

Follow the guidelines below to input titles on the screen.

To move the cursor position

Use the skip keys.

However, if a different number key is pushed, the cursor automatically moves to the right.

For front panel operation, use the skip keys.

To delete characters

Set the cursor on the character to be deleted, then press the DEL/CLR key.

For front panel operation, use the NO key.

To insert characters

Move the cursor to the location where you wish to insert a character, and press the INS key.

NOTE

As with the Editing menu, after the name is set, if the power is turned off while the MD is still inserted (TOC lights up), the revised U-TOC will not be recorded on the disc, and the title will not be input. The U-TOC is recorded when the disc is ejected.
