Dividing Recorded Tracks
(Divide Function)
With the Divide Function you can assign a track
number at places that you want to randomly access
afterwards. Use this function to add tracks to MDs
recorded from an analog source (and therefore contain
no track numbers), or to divide an existing track into
multiple portions for locating positions in the middle
of a track. When you divide a track, the total number
of tracks on the MD increases by one and all tracks
following the divided track are renumbered.
Example: Dividing track 2 to create a new track for C
