Playing MP3 files
The internet offers lots of websites on which you can download MP3 music files, following
the instructions on the site. These files can be stored on CD-R/RW discs. It’s possible to play
these discs on the MCD15.
With an MP3 encoding program, you can convert the music on regular CD’s (sold in shops)
into MP3 files. When doing this, you reduce the data to approximately 1/10 of the original
size. When storing these converted files on a CD-R/RW disc afterwards, it’s possible to
create a single 12cm CD-R/RW disc which contains about 10 times more music than a
regular music CD.
Pay attention:
These values count for MP3 files or tracks that are about 5 min. long, which are converted at
a standard bit rate (128kbps) and stored on a CD-R/RW disc with a capacity of 650MB.
The recordings you make are for your personal use. Do not use them in a way that infringes
on the copyright holder, taking into account the copyright laws.
More information about the use of MP3 files can be found at the end of this chapter.
1. Normal play
1.1. Starting Play
The MCD15 is compatible with discs with up to 256 tracks.
Turn on the power with the Power button. Open the disc drawer with the Open/close
button and place the MP3 disc in the disc drawer. Press the Play button (after pressing this
button, the disc drawer will close automatically).
The player will play the disc that was loaded. Disc and track number, elapsed playing time and
other information about the currently playing disc will appear on the display.
When you press the Open/close button during Play, Play will continue, but the disc drawer
will open, which makes it possible to replace four discs. If you want the disc tray to rotate,
press the Disc skip button on the front panel. When you’re finished, press the Open/close
button again to close the disc drawer. Do not close the drawer with your hands.
