If the L (left) or R (right) position is selected, that channel of the recording will be output to both the left and right channels of the headphones and line out jacks.

The PMD690 allows only two ways to directly manipulate the recorded tracks on a card, Erase and Renumber. Erasing a track will permanently delete a recorded track from a card. The track number of the deleted file is eliminated but a higher number track does not take its place. The deleted track number remains gone until the Renumber function is performed.
Note � The next recorded track is always the last track on the card. Therefore, if a deleted track is the last track on a card or a deleted track is the last track on the card and other tracks directly previous have been deleted, then the next recorded track number will be a number of a track that has been deleted.

To enter single track play mode, press the REPEAT button so that the "1" is indicated in the display as shown below. After playing the track, the PMD690 pauses at the beginning of next track.

The Renumber function will re-order all the tracks on a card in a sequential order starting from number 1. For example, if a card has three tracks numbered 2, 4, and 6, the Renumber function will change the track numbers to 1, 2, and 3. So the old track 2 becomes track 1, the old track 4 becomes track 2, and the old track 6 becomes track 3.
