MP3 Recommendations
• Use .mp3 as the extension when converting audio files into MP3 for saving onto CD-R(W) or CD-ROM,
e.g. Rocky08.mp3. Do not use any other extension e.g. .doc, .pdf.
• Do not use the .mp3 or WMA extension for other text or non-audio data files as this may result in seri-
ous malfunction and harmful noise interference.
•
In order to get audio CD quality, you need to record your MP3 CD at 128 kbps. You can record from 32
