MP3 Encode Schedule
The ENCODING indicator on the MCX-2000 front panel lights
up while the unit is converting the recorded audio into MP3
format. In this screen, you can view a list of song titles in MP3
conversion schedule. The first song in the list is currently in
conversion process and shown with "Encoding" on the right of
its title. Songs that finished MP3 conversion automatically
disappear from the list, and the ENCODING indicator goes off
when the list becomes empty.

mode. During conversion process, the unit may automatically enter
sleep mode, but doesn't automatically enter standby mode until it

MCX-2000 wakes up from standby mode. No operation is required.
