How to EDIT TAGS
Tags are editable information that the CDR420 're-
members' about each track.
NOTE:
Track tags have similar names and purposes but are not the same as
'CD Text' in that they are not recorded with a track so they can be
read and displayed in a CD player that is CD Text capable.
The date and time the track was recorded and the track
type (.wav or .mp3) are automatically created by the
CDR420 and are not editable.
The editable tags are TRACK NAME, ARTIST
NAME, GENRE, and COMMENTS.
How to enter a track name while recording:
By default, a track is named with the date and time the
recording was begun.
With an attached keyboard, you can edit the track
name while the track is being recorded.
1 While recording with
an attached keyboard,
press and release F1.
2 The fi rst character of
the track name fl ashes
in the display.
3 Type the name using
the keyboard.
As you type the typed
letters replace the
fl ashing letter and
advance.
