4.2.4
Restricting the number of tracks
When making a recording using the CD-RW700, it is
possible to restrict the number of tracks that may be
recorded at one time. This applies whether the tracks
are being divided manually, as described above
(4.2.3, “Manual track division”) or being divided
automatically (4.3.2, “Automatic track division”).

At any time within record or record ready mode, turn

.
This sets the number of remaining tracks, as shown
to the right of the time display. The maximum num-
ber here is limited by the standard limit of 99 tracks,
and the number of tracks currently recorded. In other
words, if 8 tracks have already been recorded on the
disc, the maximum value that can be set here is
to the right of the time display. The maximum num-
ber here is limited by the standard limit of 99 tracks,
and the number of tracks currently recorded. In other
words, if 8 tracks have already been recorded on the
disc, the maximum value that can be set here is
91
(91+8=99). If 49 tracks have already been recorded
on the disc, the maximum value that can be set here
is

Every time a track division is made, the number
shown at the right of the display goes down by one.

If recording a long program, and the number of
tracks has not been restricted, when there is no space
remaining on the disc for recording, as shown by the
time display (see 4.2.2, “Time display while record-
ing”), just before the end of the disc is reached, the
unit starts a fade-out over a few seconds (the display

If the disc is a CD-RW, the final track can be erased,
if required (see 5.2.1, “Erasing tracks”) and the disc
then finalized. If the disc is a CD-R, it must be final-
ized prior to use (see 5.1, “Finalizing”).
