Tips
To create a group without registering any tracks, turn 
AMS (or press ./> repeatedly) until “None” 
appears, then press AMS or YES.
“Complete!” appears for a few seconds and new 
group is created.
You can also register tracks that were recorded on a 
system that does not support the Group function.
Notes
You cannot register the same track to multiple 
groups.
If all the tracks on an MD are registered into groups, 
“Assign None” appears after step 4 and you cannot 
register tracks.
When creating a group without registering any 
tracks, you must enter the group name.
If you do not enter a group name in step 4, 
“Group ** (group number)” appears instead of the 
group name.
These functions allow you to release group 
registrations simply by specifying the group for 
which you want to release the registrations. In 
addition, you can also release the group 
registrations of all tracks on an MD at once.
Releasing a single group
— Group Release Function
You can release the group registrations of all 
tracks within the specified group and erase that 
group. (However, note that the tracks are not 
erased.)
