What is MP3?
H
MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer-3) is the compression format of digital
21
audio. This 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. (This figure
refers 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 CD writing software programs are not
supplied with this unit.
Points to remember when making MP3 files
¡ High bit rate and high sampling frequency are recommended
for high quality sound.
¡ Selecting VBR (Variable Bit Rate) is not recommended
because playing time is not displayed properly and sound
may be skipped.
¡ The playback sound quality differs depending on the encoding
circumstances. For details, refer to the instructions of your
own encoding software and writing software.
¡ It is recommended to set the bit rate to "128 kbps or more"
and "fixed".
Caution
¡Never assign the ".mp3" file name exten-
sion to a file that is not in the MP3 format.
This may not only produce noise from the
speaker damage, but also damage your
hearing.
