About recording MP3 files
• When recording MP3 files, the files are converted to
audio CD format. This may cause the data volume to
increase beyond the capacity of the disc.
• To protect copyrighted music contents, the following
restrictions are applied when recording MP3 files on
the deck:
1) Only normal-speed CD synchro recording is
supported.
2) The digital signal of the MP3 files is converted to
an analog signal before it is recorded.
3) The recording level cannot be adjusted.
• During recording, the elapsed time for the CD and
MD on the display may differ slightly. This does not
constitute a probrem.
Notes
• You cannot pause the recording.
• If the MD play mode is set to the Shuffle Play or
Program Play, the play mode switches to Normal
Play in step 5.
Tips
• For details about LP2/LP4 recording, see "Recording
for long times" on page 29.
• For details about High-Speed CD-MD Synchro
Recording, see page 29.
