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 not a mechanical error or malfunction. 20
