the track recorded in Monaural mode or LP2
Stereo mode, and by 4-frame intervals on the
track recorded in LP4 Stereo mode.
Tip
In step 5 and 7, if you want to shift point A or point B
by a certain number of seconds or minutes, press
m/M repeatedly. You can change the unit by
which the counter advances when you turn AMS (or
press ./> repeatedly).
Note
If “Impossible” appears in the display, you cannot
erase a portion of a track. This happens when you have
edited the same track many times.
This is due to a technical limitation of the MD system
and is not a mechanical error.
You can use this function to mark track
numbers after recording. The total number of
tracks increases by one and all the tracks
following the divided ones are renumbered.
Example: Dividing track 2 into two tracks.
