About recorded MP3 files
When recording, “RECORD” folder is automatically created and a subfolder for each source (“CD”, “TAPE” or “LINE”) is also created in the “RECORD” folder. MP3 files are added to the corresponding subfolder.
File names are assigned automatically with a numerical endings in order.
When recorded from a CD “CD001.MP3”, “CD002.MP3” …
If there are, for example, files named “CD004.MP3” and “CD009. MP3” in the USB folder already, and you make a recording, the next new file will be named “CD010.MP3”.
When recorded from a cassette tape “T001.MP3”, “T002A.MP3“ …
When record from an external source “L001.MP3”
During recording from a tape or LINE input, you can divide the file manually (page 30). In this case, consecutive numbers are added to the ends of the file names.
Example:
If “T001.MP3” is divided, files named “T001.MP3” and “T002.MP3” are created.
This unit can record up to 999 files to a USB device. However, if the USB device already contains files, those files are included in the maximum total of 999 files when recording.
The maximum time possible for a recorded file is 240 minutes, and a new file is created when the time exceeds 240 minutes. When a new file is created, recording will pause for a few seconds.
