gaps between the songs on the CD.
11 Use the dial to set the time in seconds between
songs, from 0.0 seconds (no gap) through 9.9
seconds in 0.1 second steps.
NOTE
When you come to play back the disc on a CD player,
the start of the gap will appear as Index 0 on the
track following the gap, and the start of the track
will appear as Index 1. Because the gap counts as a
part of the track, the total length of the track and gap
together cannot exceed 80 minutes.
Creating an audio CD using Live Writer
When you want to make a CD of multiple pieces that have
been recorded continuously, for example, a live perfor-
mance recorded without break, the 2488neo allows you to
split a single song into several CD tracks. In this kind of
situation, the Live Writer function uses the marks placed in
a song to split a master track into CD tracks when writing a
disc.
NOTE
With this function, the disc is automatically finalized
and you cannot add further tracks to the CD after it
has been made.
To make a CD from the currently loaded song using the
Live Writer function:
1
Insert marks into a song with a recorded master track
at the points where the CD track splits are to occur.
Track lengths must be at least 4 seconds, so there
•
must be at least 4 seconds between marks.
You can insert up to 98 marks (allowing up to
•
99 tracks).

With the 2488neo stopped, select LIVE WRITER
from the AUDIO CD menu, and press the
ENTER
key. The disc tray opens.

The disc is finalized after writing is finished.
CAUTION
DO NOT TURN OFF the 2488neo while this writing
operation is taking place. You will almost certainly
spoil the disc and may corrupt the song data.
NOTE
During writing the CD-RW drive's eject button does
not operate. You can only eject the disc after writing
has finished.
If you use a CD-RW disc, it may not be playable in
audio CD players that are not designed to handle
CD-RW discs
