Hi, Marilyn, I appreciate your thoroughness here. It might be different when recording to a music cd directly. Or it might be different when recording to a card. I've taken to recording all the stuff I want to a card and then dropping it to a cd. It's an extra step, I'll admit, but it is probably better in that I don't make as many useless cd's. The other day I pressed the round "record" button at the end of each track and for the majority of them, it would also generate a new track when the pause was taken off; that is, when the recording was re-started. That may not be what it should do, but it does it--at least it does so when recording to the internal card. I thought that all I would really have to do to get a track is to hit the heading button. It does say: "heading" when I am recording on the card; this is a daisy recording. When I'm done I make a cd-copy of the daisy recording. So when I'm doing the daisy recording it does indeed say Heading. When I am recording directly to a cd in music mode, I believe that that "heading" button says: track. Maybe I'll try recording a couple more cd's directly without the intervening use of the card. Now correct me if I am wrong. If I press the square button at the bottom between the arrows, this will also stop recording, give me a track, and when I press the round "record" button it will get me back into the recording and have forced a track to occur. I hate to be confused, but sometimes I am. Thanks for your email on the subject. It's very clear. I could write more, but I'll save it for another time.
