Combine; Divide - Yamaha MDX-596 Mode D'emploi

COMBINE

This function lets you combine two consecutive tracks
into one. After you combine the tracks, the total number
of tracks decreases by one and the tracks following the
combined tracks are renumbered.
Example: Combining tracks 2 and 3

Press EDIT repeatedly to display
"Combine ?", then press ENTER.
"Check" appears momentarily, then the MD recorder plays
the 4 seconds before and after the point where the tracks
will be connected. "(track number) + (track number) OK?"
appears in the display.
4
Press ENTER again.
The tracks are combined and "Complete" appears
momentarily.
Notes
• This operation is not possible when track 1 is selected.
• You can also divide the track later using the DIVIDE
function.
• If "Can't Edit" appears in the display, the tracks cannot be
combined. This sometimes happens when you have edited
the same track many times. This is due to the technical
limitations of the MD system and is neither a mechanical
error nor a malfunction.
