Sony MDS-501 - Manual (Page 36)

Dividing Recorded Tracks (Divide Function)
Use the divide function to create a new track number for a specific portion of an
existing track during playback. By creating track numbers for specific potions, you
can use the AMS function to randomly access those portions afterwards.
When you divide a track, the total number of tracks increases by one, and all tracks
following the divided track are renumbered.
To create track numbers during recording, see "Writing Track Numbers While
Recording (Track Marking)" on page 32.
