ABOUT “MP3”
WHAT IS MP3?
MP3 (MPEG 1 Audio Layer-3) is a
standard technology and format for
compressing a sound sequence or song.
The file is compressed to about 1/10 of its
original size. Sounds outside the range of
human hearing are compressed while the
sounds we can hear are not compressed.

To compress a source for an MP3 file,
we recommend setting the transfer bit

“44.1 kHz”, “128kbps”, and “Constant

of your CD-R / CD-RW as they come
in a different capacity ranges.
• To rec ord at one time up to the
maximum capacity on media that has
nothing recorded it, set to “Disc at
Once”.
NOTES FOR SAVING FILES ON
THE MEDIA
When the disc is inserted, the player reads
all the files on that disc. If there are many
folders or non-MP3/WMA files on the disc,
it may take a long time for play to begin or
for the next MP3/WMA file to start play.
Do not save unnecessary folders or files
other than MP3 or WMA ones in the disc to
be used for MP3 listening.
DO NOT record any other files other than
MP3 or WMA files on the CD disc. If you
record non-mp3 files onto the CD disc, the
player may not operate properly. Please
record only MP3 or WMA files onto the CD
disc.
NOTE: While this player can play most
MP3 files it cannot play all files
and may not play all MP3
formats.
