Important Information

The LYRA2 player works with your computer to let you play your favorite music from
files recorded on removable CompactFlash cards. The player plays files encoded with
the popular MP3, Windows Media* Audio and RealNetworks** G2 audio formats and
may allow for future upgrades of some alternative audio compression formats.

Because the player has no moving parts, the audio can be played back virtually any­where without skipping.

You can download MP3, Windows Media and G2 encoded music files from several
Internet sites to your computer hard drive or record your favorite CD using the soft­ware supplied.

Some of the Internet sites you may want to explore are:

www.emusic.com
www.real.com
www.musicmatch.com
www.mpeg.org
www.mp3.com

www.windowsmedia.com

* Windows Media and the Windows Logo are trademarks or registered trademarks of Microsoft
Corporation in the United States and/or other countries.
**G2, RealJukebox, and RealNetworks are trademarks of RealNetworks, Inc.

Warning: Use of this product is for your personal use only. Copying CDs or
downloading music files for sale or other business purposes is a violation of
copyright law. It is also a violation of copyright law to download files
without permission of the copyright owner.

Caution While Driving: Use of headphones while operating an automobile or
moving vehicle is not recommended and is unlawful in some states and areas.
Be careful and attentive on the road. Stop operation of the unit if you find it
disruptive or distracting while driving.

Caution: Exposure to direct sunlight or extreme heat (such as inside a parked
car) may cause damage or malfunction.

Precautions for CompactFlash Card:

• Use a soft dry cloth to clean any dirt.

• Do not bend CompactFlash Card.

• Do not operate or store CompactFlash Card in places with frequent static elec­tricity as recorded data may be damaged.

• It is normal for CompactFlash card to get warm after being used for a long
time.

Helpful Hints

For detailed information on
CompactFlash card file man­agement, creating playlists,
and grouping management,
please consult the online doc­umentation or Help section.

or store files from the PC on
CompactFlash cards.

Note

MP3 files transferred to the CompactFlash card using Lyra compatible software are con­verted to an encrypted form for purposes of copyright protection, but the encryption
process does not change the MP3 encoding characteristics of the file or the file's compli­ance with the MPEG-1, Layer 3 (MP3) standard. Additionally, the original file is left unaf­fected on the user's system.

Getting Started

7. Install the RealJukebox software.

After you have installed the external drive and placed the LYRA2 software CD in
the CD-ROM drive as described on pages 6-8, follow these directions to install the
RealJukebox software.

A. Display the Select Music Software
screen as described in Step 5.

Make sure RealJukebox is highlighted
and click Install.

B. Click Accept or Cancel after you
read the license agreement.

Note: You must Accept to continue.

C. When the Setup of RealJukebox
screen appears, verify the correct des­tination path for the program files.

Click Next.
D. Select how to configure shortcuts

for RealJukebox and click Finish to
start installation of the software.

E. Once the RealJukebox software
has started, complete the Electronic
Registration Card. Enter your Country
and Zip Code. Click Next to proceed.

Note: If you don’t have email, enter
[e-mail]. You must enter an
email address to proceed.

F. Read Information about

RealJukebox window appears. Click
Tell Me More for more information or

click Next to continue.
G. Setup Options screen. Select the

setup option you wish to use. Express
Setup is recommended. Click Next to
continue.

H. Confirm Express Setup screen.
These screens will give a summary of
the most common and default config­uration settings. You can change the
settings or click Finish.

We suggest you click Finish and
not change any of the settings at
this time.

I. If necessary, close the main setup
screen.

Note: You can access the Configuration
Wizard from the Tools menu at any time

later when you are more familiar with the
program.

23

Getting Started

Set basic preferences.

Detailed information, tutorials, and troubleshooting are available through the
Help menu and the RealJukebox Internet site (accessed from the Help and Sites
menus).

Note: We recommend you familiarize yourself with the RealJukebox New User’s Guide and
complete the Online Tutorial before using and recording files.

We also recommend that you log onto the Internet while using RealJukebox to
take advantage of all the features.

We feel the Recording Method and a few of the Audio Quality Preferences need
to be discussed before you start using the RealJukebox software.

A. Start the RealJukebox software.

B. Display the Preferences menu by
choosing Preferences under the Tools
menu.

C. Click Recording to display the
Recording menu.

D. Select a recording method.

1. Check Digital and Use Error
Correction for the best results.
Error checking and correction will
be performed while you are
recording.

Note: Choosing Use Error Correction
will slow down your recording speed.

24

Getting Started

Set basic preferences. (continued)

2. Check Analog if your CD-ROM
drive does not support digital
audio extraction.

E. With the Preferences menu dis­played, click Audio Quality to display
the Audio Quality menu.

F. Select a recording Format and

Quality Level.

1. RealAudio is RealNetworks’
audio format. This format saves
your music as RealAudio (.rmx)
secure or RealAudio unsecured
(.rmj) files. Compression levels
available are (96, 64, and 44
Stereo, and 32 Kbps Mono).
96kbps Stereo has the best quality
sound, but uses the most disk
space.

2. MP3 Audio is MPEG layer 3
Audio available at multiple com­pression levels from 32 kbps mono
to 320 kpbs stereo. 320 kbps has
the best quality sound, but uses
the most disk space. We recom­mend using 128 kbps.

3. Wave Audio is unencoded music
that is not compressed. This format
has the best quality sound but
requires the largest file size, as much
as 650MB per CD. Wave Audio files
are much larger than RealAudio and
MP3 Audio files.

G. Select a Secure Files setting

1. Secure Files On
Files recorded with security on
can only be played on the PC on
which they were recorded.

Note: If you record with the security
feature on, make sure you perform a
security key back up (Backup Security
Key feature located under Options
menu).

2. Secure Files Off
Most people choose to turn the
Secure Files feature off.

Notes: In the future, some music may
require the security feature turned on
to record to your computer.

Turn this feature off if you own two
computers and exchange files
between them.

3. Click OK.
