While using group function

Symptom
The group function
does not operate.
A track cannot be
recorded to a new
group. A new group
cannot be created.
Cause/Remedy
• The power sources have been disconnected during recording or editing,
or the battery have been exhausted.
, Set the power sources again, or replace the exhausted battery with
new ones.
• The power source has been disconnected or a power outage has
occurred during editing.
, The editing done to that point is not saved to the disc. Do the
editing operation again.
• Non-audio data cannot be erased with the Erase function.
, Confirm the contents by connecting the recorder to your computer.
If it is okay to delete the contents, then perform the Format
function (page 69).
• This is due to the MiniDisc system limitations. When the tracks are
scattered and the length of each track is short*, you may not be able to
combine the tracks.
* Combining tracks of the following lengths may not be possible.
Hi-MD mode
Linear PCM stereo: 9 seconds or less
Hi-SP stereo: 8 seconds or less
Hi-LP stereo: 32 seconds or less
MD mode
SP stereo: 12 seconds or less
LP2 stereo/Monaural: 24 seconds or less
LP4 stereo: 48 seconds or less
• You cannot combine tracks recorded in different recording modes, e.g.,
a track recorded in stereo and a track recorded in monaural; nor can
you combine a track recorded with digital connection and a track
recorded with analog connection.
• The component does not support MDLP or Hi-MD.
, Edit on other component that support MDLP or Hi-MD.
Cause/Remedy
• While using a disc without group setting, an attempt was made to select
some group-related menu.
, Use a disc with group setting.
• This is due to the MiniDisc system limitations (in MD mode only).
Group information has been written to the area where the disc name is
stored. The disc name and track names are recorded in the same area,
which can store a maximum of approximately 1,700 characters. If the
total number exceeds this amount, a new group cannot be created even
though group mode is on. It is also impossible to make group settings at
this time.
