Editing recorded tracks
You can edit your recordings by adding/
erasing track marks or labeling tracks and
MDs. Premastered MDs cannot be edited.
• You cannot edit tracks on an MD that is
record-protected. Before editing tracks, close
the tab on the side of the MD (page 75).
• If you perform an editing operation while
playing, editing results will not be recorded
until you stop the recorder and “TOC Edit”
disappears in the display.
• Do not move or jog the recorder while “TOC
Edit”* is flashing in the display.
• The lid does not open until “TOC Edit”
disappears in the display after editing.
• When the group mode is on, editing can be
performed only for the tracks registered into
the selected group.

About the character palette
During operations on the recorder,
characters can be selected from the
character palette in the display.
The character palette has the following
configulation.
Since only a part of the character palette
is visible on the display, use the control
bar to move the cursor and enter
characters.
Notes
• “NAME FULL” appears when you try to enter
more than 1,700 characters on a disc. Enter a
shorter name for the track, group, or disc
(page 53), or set the “LP Stamp” setting to
“Stamp OFF” when recording in MDLP mode
so that “LP:” is not added at the beginning of
the track name (page 30).
• When labeling a disc which has been recorded
using the group function, make sure group
mode is on in order to prevent the group
management information from being
overwritten by mistake.
• If you enter the symbol “//” between the
characters in disc names such as “abc//def”,
you may be unable to use the group function.
