Quick Random Access
Like CDs, MDs offer instantaneous random
access to the beginning of any music track.
Premastered MDs are recorded with location
addresses corresponding to each music
selection.
Recordable MDs are manufactured with a
"User TOC Area" to contain the order of the
music. The TOC (Table of Contents) system
is similar to the "directory management
system" of floppy disks. In other words,
starting and ending addresses for all music
tracks recorded on the disc are stored in this
area. This lets you randomly access the
beginning of any track as soon as you enter
the track number (AMS), as well as label the
location with a track name as you would a
file on a diskette.

Restrictions on the editing of
tracks checked out from your
computer
This unit was designed so that editing
functions (i.e., erasing tracks, adding track
marks, and erasing track marks) do not
function for tracks that have been checked
out from your computer. This is to prevent
the loss of check-in authorization by the
checked-out tracks. To edit these tracks, first
check them back into the computer, and then
edit them on the computer.
