* Due to audio CD standards, songs on a CD must be at least
four seconds long. Thus, you cannot set two CD track markers
within four seconds of each other. If you attempt to do this,
"Can't Set Marker" appears in the display, and the process
cannot be carried out. Make sure your CD markers are at least
four seconds apart.
The placement of a CD track marker in a VS-1824 song sends
a command to the CD-R to increment the track number on
the CD-R disc by one. It is not possible to create a CD-R with
non-sequential track numbers, or to skip track numbers.
Do all your editing first. Use Track Cut and Track Insert to
create exactly the desired transitions between songs. If you
CD Track Number Tip
When setting up CD track markers for a full length CD-R, it's easy to get confused by the discontinuity between the CD track
marker number and the actual CD track number created. During the CD-R writing process, regular markers—placed by
pressing [TAP]—are ignored by the CD-R. By placing two regular markers during the first song, the subsequent CD track
markers match the actual CD track numbers which they will create.
Before using the CD Write function, place two "dummy" markers somewhere during the first song. It doesn't matter where
the two dummy markers are placed, as they will be ignored by the CD-R. The first two marker numbers are 000 and 001.
Place the next marker using [PLAY (DISPLAY)]+[TAP] (to indicate a CD track number) where you want the second track of
the CD to begin. This will be marker 002c.

markers.
Once you are completely satisfied with the timing and
transitions between songs, place your CD track markers.
Check them by pressing [NEXT] then [PLAY]. If you need to
erase a marker, press [CLEAR]+[SONG]+[TAP].
If you are only recording one song to the CD-R, it is not
necessary to place any CD track markers, whether or not
Finalize is on or off.
