and Windows TM compatible file format. Each track
recorded on the card is stored in its own folder, which
carries the same name as the track file. Below is an
example of the file structure on a card.

Notes
• Files on a card recorded by the PMD690 that are modified by a
PC will no longer be able to be read by the PMD690.
• Each PC Card formatted in the PMD690 will contain, in
addition to the audio tracks, an EDL and TOC (mztoc.inf) file
that can only be read by the PMD690. Do not attempt to edit or
delete these files on a PC.
