Erasing a file
You can erase the current file in the following way:
1
Select the
EDIT
sub-menu from the main menu.
Renaming a file
When the DV-RA1000HD records files, it numbers
them in sequence, starting at 0, which is probably not
very useful in the future.
To rename files, and provide them with meaningful
titles for future reference:
1
Select the
EDIT
sub-menu from the main menu.
2
From this sub-menu, select
Figure 6.8: Editing file names
Editing files
CAUTION
These editing operations are destructive, but there
is one level of undo available which applies to the
operations in the edit menu.
Combining files
If two recordings have been made in the same project
which are to form one track, the files can be joined
together.
NOTE
This operation is not possible with files recorded in
DSD mode.
You cannot join together files that are transferred
from a CD if the CD has its copy ID set to "prohibit."
The current file is joined to the file following it in the
play list (so if two files are to be joined and they are not
next to each other in the play list, the play list must be
edited). (See "Play lists" on page 46.)
TIP
Although this technique simply appends one file to
the end of another, it is possible to remove unwant-
ed heads and tails using the editing functions. (See
"Dividing files" on page .)

combining two files will create a file larger than this,
a popup message alerts you to the fact, and you
cannot proceed with the combine operation.
