MR-8HD/CD Owner’s Manual (Basic operations)
This section describes how to create a new song for recording on the hard disk, while keeping the

beginning (ABS ZERO) of the demo song.
1) While the recorder is stopped, press the
[MENU/ENTER] knob to enter the menu mode.
The display now shows the first page of the
menu selection screen, where "
Back " is
highlighted initially.
2) Rotate the [MENU/ENTER] knob to select "Song ",
and press the [MENU/ENTER] knob.
The display now shows the first page of the
song menu screen, where "
Back " is
highlighted initially.
3) Rotate the [MENU/ENTER] knob to select
"Select Song ", and press the [MENU/ENTER]
knob.
The display now shows the first page of the
song selection screen. You can see the list of
the song numbers/names on the hard disk.
Currently, only the demo song is created, and
"
S01: FOSTEX_FEVER " and " ---:(New Song) " are
shown.
"
---:(New Song) " is used to create a new song.
4) Rotate the [MENU/ENTER] knob to select
"- - -:(New Song)", and press the [MENU/ENTER]
knob.
5) Enter the desired song name.
<Note>: By selecting " Back " and pressing

the display to the previous screen by press-
ing the [

<Note>: You may leave the default song
name as it is. Also, you can edit the song
name after creating a song using the "Re-
name Song" menu item in the song menu
of the menu mode (see page 99).
The display now shows the screen for entering
a new song name. The rightmost character on
the default song name is flashing (in the ex-
ample below, "
2 " of " Song02 " starts flashing).
Use the character entry keys to enter the de-
sired character at the flashing point.
Rotate the [
MENU/ENTER ] knob to move the
flashing point. Use the [ UNDO/REDO ]/[ DELETE ]
key to delete the character at the flashing point.
Therefore, when the rightmost character is
flashing as in the screen example above, you
can delete all characters by pressing the [
UNDO/
REDO ]/[ DELETE ] key repeatedly. You can en-
ter up to 16 characters for a song name.
See <How to enter characters> on the next page
for entering the song name as "
