Basics of the CDR-HD1500
Understanding the basics will set you in the right direction before starting recording.

HDD Structure
Data recorded onto the HDD can be explained as follows.
Track and Group
■
Data is stored in two ways: Track and Group.
Track: Song data as its name implies. When you record song data, or
Tracks, they will be stored in a Group called "Disc."
Group: There are three types: Disc, Album and Bookmark. All
contain Tracks.
A song can also be called a Track; A Group contains more than one
track.
Group Type
■
There are three types: Disc, Album and Bookmark.
Disc: Contains recorded Tracks (up to 99 Tracks). Up to 999 Disc
groups can be recorded on an HDD.
Album: A Group or a play list, made up of any combination of Tracks
on the HDD. The data in an Album is a "shortcut" to data held in a
Disc. If the Disc data is deleted, the Album data will also be removed.
Bookmark: A temporary Group of the Tracks you want to play
and/or to include in an Album. You can create more than one Album,
but as its name implies, you can hold only one Bookmark Group at a
time.
Album and Bookmark groups can help you arrange Tracks on the
HDD for playback of your favorite songs and copy them to a CD.
