Manual Track

When the Manual Track (Manual Track incrementing) is on during recording, press the Function
button until "TR" appears on the display, then press the F1 (TR) button to increment the audio
file.
A new audio file is created at that point. The continuity of sound is not guaranteed and depends
on the speed of a card or the audio file size.

Auto Track

With the Auto Track (Automatic Track incrementing) On, a new audio file is begun automatically
at specified intervals of recording time. The Auto Track can be set to increment every 1, 5, 10, 15
or 30 minutes, or every 1, 2, 6, 8, 12 or 24 hours. The Auto Track makes finding a particular point
in a recording easier. For example, if a new audio file begins every minute during playback, the
Auto Track makes finding a particular passage easier because of the relationship between file
numbers and time. During playback, you can select file number 3 to play approximately the 3rd
minute of recording. To go directly to the beginning of the 10th minute, select file number 10, etc.
The continuity of sound is not guaranteed and depends on the speed of a card or the file size.
Setup Auto Track in the preset menu.
Note: New audio file starts automatically when the recorded file size reaches 4GB.
