Some w ords about MP3 The revolutionar y new music compression technology MP3 (MPEG Audio Lay er -3) enables to shrink down original digital audio sound data with a factor of up to 10 without losing significant sound quality . This allows you to record up to 10 hour s of CD-like quality music on a single CD-R OM. Making your o wn MP3-CD Basically there are two sources f or MP3 music on CD . Y ou can either create (“rip”) it from your own digital audio CDs or download legal MP3 m usic from the Inter net. Record (“burn”) the music from your hard disc on CD-ROM with y our home PC (make sur e filename ends with .mp3) . Once finished, you can play y our MP3-CD on this set and enjoy the m usic . Data rate The data rate is of great impor tance with MP3. It indicates how fast bits are transfered. Stereo music on a CD sho ws a data r ate of about 1400 kilobits per second (kbps). T o achiev e a good MP3 quality a bit rate of 128 kbps is recommended. As the encoding rate is user -selectable, make sure to reach this data rate for MP3 as recordings less than 128 kbps will suffer from a degradation in sound quality . Recording Downloading MP3 files from the Internet or r ipping songs from your o wn digital audio CDs is a delicate process, also influenced by the quality of the encoder program and speed of your PC . This may sometimes result in “drop-outs” which you ma y exper ience while listening to your MP3-CD . In any case make sure to use a recording speed not faster than indicated on the CD-ROM and a void r unning other programs simultaneously on your PC during the recording process. It is not possible to “burn” an MP3-CD on this CD recor der. It is not possible to recor d from an MP3-CD. Supported formats Following formats are suppor ted on this CD recorder/changer : – Disc format: ISO 9660 or Joliet – Filename: .mp3 (tracks), .m3u or .pls (playlists) – Bit rate: 32–320 kbps (128 kbps advised) or variable bit rate Note: Use the ISO 9660 disc format when bur ning the CD- ROM. UDF disc format (e.g. ”DirectCD” or “WinOnCD”) is not suppor ted . Maintenance Clean the set with a soft, slightly dampened lint-free cloth. Do not use any cleaning agents as they ma y have a corrosive effect. Do not expose the set, batteries or CDs to humidity , rain, sand or excessive heat (caused b y heating equipment or direct sunlight). The lenses may cloud o ver when the set is suddenly mov ed from cold to warm sur roundings. Playing a CD(RW) is not possible then. Leav e the set in a war m environment until the moisture evaporates. Disc handling For recording it is ver y impor tant to use dust and scr atch free discs. T o take a CD(RW) out of its bo x easily , press the center spindle while lifting the CD(RW). Always pick up a CD(RW) b y the edge and put it back after use . Never write on a CD or attach a sticker to it. Wr ite only on the printed side of a CDR or CDRW and only with a soft felt-tipped pen. T o clean a CD(RW), wipe it in a straight line from the center toward the edge using a soft, lint-free cloth. A cleaning agent may damage the disc! 6 .
