(CD-R / CD-RW writing format may be
different, some discs are not acceptable)
About MP3
MP3 (MPEG 1, Audio Layer 3) is a digital audio format
for quick downloading files that sound as good as 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. On a normal CD of
74 minutes you can store over 130 songs.
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.
