Penny,

An interesting question about "tracking out" mp3 files.

I notice that  when I perform editing on my plextalk recorders that the
daisy structure gets  more and more messy as if its  actually not
changing the original mp3 file but  just indexing it and documenting my
edits in additional files.  However I recently edited some  long
convention recordings on  my  ptp1 and then used the build book function
and backed the file up to a thumb drive.  Guess what! One clean mp3 file
was in the  resulting book.  

So I have not tried this way of making separate track files but it might
be interesting to  experiment  with it.

Take a file that you want to split in to 4 mp3 tracks.  Make a backup
copy of the original. Delete everything but track 1 from the version in
the ptp1 then build and backup to  create track1.   Copy back the
original file and delete everything but the track 2 material then build
and backup to  the track 2  file.  And so on.  

It would also be interesting to know if serial copy protection prevents
this process.  Since you are not creating  compact disks there is really
no reason for it.  I am not  sure if the copy protection  is even
implimented on the  ptr1.

More than one of us would like this information.
I'd also like to know if I can make plain mp3 recordings on 
the  plextalk-pocket.
Can I cut them in the plex-pocket and track them out as I am used to 
doing with the plextalk 2?  Except in the plex2, I cannot  cut apart 
a long file into mp3s.
Can that be done on the pocket?
