Registering tracks in
groups

— Group Function

What is the Group Function?
The Group Function allows you to play, record
and edit the tracks on an MD in groups. For
example, you can register tracks 1 to 5 on an MD
to the "Rock" group, and tracks 6 to 9 to the
"Pops" group. Then you can listen to the tracks
in only the desired group, add new tracks to a
group, and perform other operations. In
addition, the Group Function can be easily
turned on and off simply by pressing MD
GROUP.

When the group function is turned on, track
numbers within groups are renumbered, starting
from track 1. In the above figure, for example,
