To change the transfer method

Before transfer, the software converts WAV, WMA, AAC, and ATRAC files to formats playable on the server — WAV files to LPCM or MP3; and WMA, AAC, ATRAC files to MP3. You can select the conversion settings.

1 On the “Tools” menu, click [Options].2 Select the format for WAV files, from LPCM or MP3.3 Select the bit rate for MP3 files.

When [Auto] is selected, the optimum bit rate will be assigned to each MP3 file.

Bit rate is fixed to 128 kbps when converting WAV to MP3 with [Bit Rate] set to [Auto].

zHint

You can turn off the server by pressing \/1 while “Music Transfer” is running. The operation continues even after the server is turned off.
