Recording MP3 files on a CD-media
¡
You are recommended to minimize the chances of
making a disc that contains both CD-DA files and MP3
files.
¡
If CD-DA files are on the same disc as MP3 files, the
songs may not play in the intended order, or some
songs may not play at all. Do not record CD-DA files
and MP3 files on the same disc. Failure to observe
this may cause either of these two types to be
unplayable.
¡
Do not record files other than MP3 files and unnecessary
folder on a disc.
¡
The name of MP3 file should be added by rules as
shown in the following descriptions and also comply
with the rules of each file system.
¡
You may encounter trouble in playing MP3 files or dis-
playing the information of MP3 files recorded with cer-
tain writing software or CD recorders.
¡
The file extension “.mp3” should be assigned to each file
depending on the file format.
¡
This unit does not have the play list function.
¡
Although Multi-session recording is supported, the use
of Disc-at-Once is recommended.
¡
Discs recorded by the packet writing software are not
supported.

What is MP3
MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer-3) is a compression format of digital audio. MP3 is developed by MPEG (Motion Picture Experts
Group). Using this compression format, you can record the contents of about 10 music CDs on a single CD media (This fig-
ures refer to data recorded on a 650 MB CD-R or CD-RW at a fixed bit rate of 128 kbps and a sampling frequency of
44.1 kHz).
Note:
¡
MP3 encoding and writing software is not supplied with this unit.
¡
CD writing software is not supplied with this unit.
Points to remember when making MP3 files
¡
High bit rate and high sampling frequency are recom-
mended for high quality sounds.
¡
VBR (Variable Bit Rate) is not recommended because
playing time is not displayed properly and sound may be
skipped.
¡
Sampling frequency 16 kHz of MPEG-1 is not repro-
duced.
¡
The playback sound quality differs depending on the
encoding circumstances. For details, refer to the user
manual of your own encoding software and writing soft-
ware.
¡
It is recommended to set the bit rate to “128 kbps or
more” and “fixed”.
