Folders and music  les

With this system, the music recorded in the CD-ROM, SD card, USB device or digital audio player is referred to as "audio  le(s)" or " le(s)".

When an SD card or USB card is recorded using this system:

The  les recorded into an SD card or USB device using this system are grouped in folders, and management numbers are automatically given to the created folders and  les.

Management number given automatically to a folder: A_A001…A_A999…A_Z999

•

Management number given automatically to a  le: T001.WMA, T002.WMA……

•

When a folder is recorded after the title information has been acquired from the AMG database, the album name is attached automatically after the management number of the  le, and the  lename is attached automatically after the management number of each  le.

This system uses the WMA and WAV formats for recording audio into the SD card and USB device.

When a CD is recorded:

Inside of the SD card or USB device

AL_A001 folder is automatically created.

When an SD card or USB device is

recorded for the  rst time using this system, the KWD folder is created automatically. The folders and  les recorded hereafter are managed in the KWD folder.

Hold a CD taking care not to touch the played surface.

Discs playable on the system

This system can play back the audio part of a CD (12 cm,

• 8 cm), CD-ROM, CD-R, CD-RW or CD-EXTRA disc.

The 8 cm CD adapter cannot be used.

•

Notes on CD-ROM/CD-R/CD-RW discs

If the CD-ROM, CD-R or CD-RW disc in use has a printable label surface, the disc may be unable to be taken out of the system due to sticking of the label surface. To prevent malfunction of the system, do not use such a disc.

Cautions on CD discs

Always use a disc carrying the marking.

A disc without this marking may be unable to be played back correctly.

The disc rotates at a high speed during playback. Never use a cracked, chipped or greatly warped disc. Otherwise, damage or malfunction of the player may result.

Also, do not use a disc with a non-circular shape as this may result in malfunction.

AAC stands for "Advanced Audio Coding" It is the audio compression method use with the video compression of digital broadcasting, etc.

Music CD in which the character information such as the disc titles, artist names, track titles, etc. is recorded.

An audio compression method developed by Faunhofer IIS, Germany. It achieves a high compression rate by thinning out the data of the sound that is less audible to human ears. It can compress music CD data into about 1/11 (128 kbps) while maintaining similar audio quality.

Standard on the data read/write speeds of the SD and SDHC memory cards. Three steps of Classes 2, 4 and 6 are standardized and their data transfer rates for read/write are guaranteed respectively at 2 MB/s or more, 4 MB/s or more and 6 MB/s or more. When writing continual data such as music data, it is required that the card is compatible with a speed higher than a certain data transfer rate. With this system, it is recommended to use SD cards of Class 4 or higher.

This is Kenwood-original band interpolation technology for reproducing audio files in an SD card or USB device with sound properties that are extremely close to the original properties. It employs a unique algorithm to estimate and interpolate the high frequencies lost due to compression for natural, realistic reproduction of music.

Standard for interfacing between the PC and peripheral devices. This system is compatible with USB 1.1 and 2.0.

Standard for controlling a USB device from a PC. Also, refers to the action that a PC recognizes a USB device connected to it as an external storage device.

Technology for assigning the bits by varying their quantity according to the amount of music information.

Stands for "Windows Media™ Audio". This is an audio compressed encoding system developed by Microsoft Corporation.

Number of times analog signal is converted into digital signal per second. It is 44.1 kHz with music CD. In general, higher sampling frequencies offer higher audio quality.

Information written in audio file, including the title name, artist name, album name and genre.

Figure expressing the amount of information per second. A higher bit rates offer higher audio quality.
