You have to name it BEFORE recording! Like: MUWO_906 willl give files
as this after recording:

MUWO_909_01, MUWO_909_02, et cetera. You have to keep notes as to what
is in which file.

I use it daily for music, sound effects, spoken word, and nature. Just
get used to naming it first as you cannot do anythying with them until
you get them into a computer after recording... I always include the
date in my files names, even if it is as simple as _06 or 91206.

And the folder mode is important too - I use when scene changes, but
you can do it by date and scene also if that is easier to organize for
your use.

Hope this helps,
