MP3 (MPEG 1, Audio Layer 3) is a digital audio
format for quick downloading files that sound similar
in performance to CDs. MP3 uses entropy encoding
to reduce the number of redundant sounds in an
audio signal to a minimum. It takes music from a CD
and reduces it by a factor of 12, with no noticeable
loss of quality. Whereas a typical CD holds only 74
minutes of music you can store over 130 songs with MP3.
Disc information
Sampling rate should be 44.1 kHz and bit rate is
recommended within the range from 128 Kbps to 256
Kbps, in order to achieve the best performance. In
general, higher quality settings result in larger file
sizes.
ATTENTION:
Due to unforeseen software compatibility
issues, certain forms of disc media may not
playback properly. This includes compressed
media formats, i.e. MP3, JPEG files.

TIPS FOR MAKING A GOOD MP3 CD
ON YOUR COMPUTER:
- Using a good quality CD-RW/CD-R
disc is recommended. Up to 650 MB
(74-minute CD) or 700 MB (80-minute
CD) of MP3 files can be recorded.
- Select a high quality and stable CD
Recorder (writer).
- Select an advanced CD burning
software.
- MP3 is data and not WAV information,
therefore Mode 1 must be selected
when compiling and burning your discs.
- Drag and drop must not be used to
compile the disc. The player will not
recognize this format.
- Select Data CD Project in your
software user interface, the file system
should comply with the standard ISO
9660 or Joliet. Or, select MP3 CD
Project for more convenient operation.
- Finalize the CD after it is burned.
