How to enter a name
<Notes>
• Pressing the different character entry key
automatically moves the cursor right.
If the two adjacent characters are assigned
to the same key, use the jog dial to move
the cursor after entering the first
character (as shown in step 4 above).
• For a song name with eight or less
characters, you cannot use "+" (for
example, "AAA+BBB" is illegal). You can
use "+" for a song name with more than
eight characters (for example,
"AAA + BBBBB" is legal).
8)
After entering the desired name, press the
[MENU/ENTER] key.
The name is set, while the cursor moves to
"[ENTER]".
<Note>:
If you enter the same name as an
existing song, the display shows "Illegal Song
Name!" and returns to the song name edit-
ing screen. In such a case, enter a different
name.
9)
While "[ENTER]" is highlighted, press the
[MENU/ENTER] key.
The second song (whose song name is
"Memory") is created, while the MR-8mkII
exits the MENU mode and the display shows
the home screen of the newly created song02.
As described above, you can create more than
one song before you start recording.
Note that when more than one song is created,
you must select the desired song before you
start recording or editing.
See "Song management" on page 90 for details
about how to select the desired song.
<Note>:
When a song of the LP mode is
loaded, "LP" is lit on the home screen as
below, which allows you to recognize the
song mode.
6)
Press the [UNDO/REDO] / [DELETE] key
repeatedly until the entire default name is deleted.
7)
Use the character entry keys to enter a desired
song name.
See "How to enter a name" below for details
about how to enter a song name. A song name
can be up to 16 characters.
