What is MP3?

MP3-CD, CD-R/RW Playback

You can play back MP3-files on CD-R or CD-RW discs.

+10 Button

One MP3-CD can contain over 100 MP3 music files. This button is used to skip through tracks in multiples of 10, in order to find the track you want more quickly.

Shock Prevention

Even if the CD player is knocked or jolted while listening to a CD, the sound will not skip but will continue normal playback.

MP3 means MPEG1 Layer 3, the global standard for audio signal compression technology. It uses digital compression technology to compress original sound data by up to 12 times without sound quality degradation.

File Compatibility

● The unit will playback files created in MP3 format (Mpeg1.Layer 3) with *.mp3 as

their extension.

● Files created in MP2 format (Mpeg1.Layer2) with *.mp2 as their extension can also

be played back.

How many MP3 files can a CD-R or CD-RW disc record?

● The maximum capacity of one CD-R or CD-RW disc is 650MB.

Normally, one MP3 file has a capacity of 4MB, therefore approximately 170 files can be recorded on a single disc.
