About “MP3”

What is the MP3?

MP3 (MPEG 1 Audio Layer-3) is a standard technology and format for compressing a sound sequence. 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.

Notes

When naming, be sure to add the file extension “mp3” to the file name.

If you put the extension “mp3” to a file other than an MP3 file, the player cannot recognize the file properly and will generate random noise that could damage your speakers.

The file name does not correspond to the ID tag.
THE USABLE NUMBER OF FOLDERS/FILESMaximum folder number: 255Maximum file number: 255SETTINGS FOR COMPRESSION SOFTWARE AND WRITING SOFTWARE

To compress a source for an MP3 file, we recommend setting the transfer bit rate of the compression software to “44.1 kHz”, “128kbps”, and “Constant Bit Rate”.

To record up to the maximum capacity, set to the “halting of writing”.

To record 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 files on the disc, it may take a long time for play to begin or for the next MP3 file to start play.

Do not save unnecessary folders or files other than MP3 ones in the disc to be used for MP3 listening.

We recommend that you do not save other types files or unnecessary folders on a disc that has MP3 files.
