Editing recorded tracks
Before editing
You can edit your recordings by adding/
erasing track marks or labeling tracks and
discs.
• When you edit the contents of a 1GB Hi-MD
disc, connect the AC power adaptor to the
recorder or use a new alkaline dry battery
(battery level indication shows
). When
you attempt to edit on a 1GB Hi-MD disc,
“NotENOUGH POWER TO EDIT” may
appear and editing cannot be done even if the
battery level indication shows sufficient
remaining power while the recorder is stopped
or playing. This is because of a mechanism
that disables editing when the remaining
battery power is estimated by the recorder to
be insufficient due to the high power
consumption required for 1GB Hi-MD disc
editing.
• Before making an editing while using the AC
power adaptor, always insert a new alkaline
dry battery into the recorder first to ensure that
the editing operation completes successfully.
• Premastered discs cannot be edited.
• Close the record-protect tab on the side of the
disc before editing.
• Do not move or jog the recorder or disconnect
the power source while editin or “SYSTEM
FILE WRITING” is flashing in the display. If
you do, the data edited up to that point may
not be recorded to the disc, or data on the disc
may be damaged. “SYSTEM FILE
WRITING” flashes while the editing results
are being recorded.
• While “SYSTEM FILE WRITING” is
flashing, the lid becomes locked.
Adding titles (Title)
You can add titles to tracks, groups and
discs. You can add artist names and album
names to tracks on a disc used in Hi-MD
mode.
Available characters

for English and European languages
1)
• Numbers 0 to 9
• Symbols 2)
1) European alphabets appear only for discs used
in Hi-MD mode.
2) The available symbols will differ for Hi-MD
mode and MD mode (see “About the character
palette” (page 57)).
Maximum number of
characters per name
Track names, group names, and disc
name: Approx. 200 each (containing a
mixture of all available characters)
Maximum number of
characters that can be input
per disc
In Hi-MD mode:
A maximum of about 55,000 characters
In MD mode:

The number of titles that can be stored on
a disc depends on the number of
characters that are input for track names,
group names, artist names, album names
and disc name.
