Portable for adding index marks to long tracks

[miawj]

Are any portables particularly suitable for easily breaking long recordings into individual tracks? Preferably blind with one hand? Or are they all equally fiddly monsters that will have me erasing the whole rest of the track if I don't unbuckle the machine and sit down and stare at the display (as seemed to be the case with a couple I looked at in store.)

(I don't need to shuffle the tracks.)

All MD recorders have a track mark button which allows you to break up a long recording just by pressing a button. So yes, you could do it blindfolded whilst listening (in real-time of course). Most recorders also allow you to automatically add track marks at specified intervals too whilst recording (eg. after 5 minutes etc.)...

Thanks, but with the minisystem I have, the one touch track marker only works during the recording of a new track. To add a mark while listening to an existing recording requires the use of three different buttons being pressed four or five times!
