BEFORE USING

Do not place objects on top

Cautions on handling batteries

Misuse of the batteries can result in electrolyte leakage,

rupturing, corrosion, etc.

• Refrain from placing any objects on top of the player.

Bear in mind the following points when using batteries.

Cautions on handling power cord

• Remove the batteries from the remote control unit if the

unit is not going to be used for a prolonged period (a month

or more).

• Do not touch the power cord with wet hands.

• When disconnecting the power cord, always make sure

that you take hold of the plug. Yanking out or bending the

cord can damage it and/or cause electric shocks or a fire.

• Do not use an old battery together with a new one.

• Insert the batteries while ensuring that their

and

poles

are properly aligned with the corresponding markings on

the remote control unit.

• Get into the habit of disconnecting the power plug before

leaving home.

• Batteries with the same shape may have different voltages.

Do not use different types of batteries together.

Do not attempt repairs yourself

• If electrolyte has leaked, thoroughly wipe the inside of the

battery compartment, and then insert new batteries.

• Refrain from lubricating the player: doing so can cause

malfunctioning.

• Only qualified engineers with specialized expertise are

authorized to repair the pick-up and parts inside the player.

Precautions

• In winter, droplets of water form on the insides of the

windows of a heated room: this is called condensation.

This CD player uses an optical lens, so the condensation

may form in the following cases.

- In a room immediately after the heating has been turned

- In a room where the humidity level is high

- When the player has been suddenly brought from a cold

location into a warm room

Since, in cases like this, the track numbers may not be

read and the player is prevented from operating properly,

wait about 30 minutes, and then operate the player.

• This player may cause interference on a tuner or TV set. If

this is the case, place it further away from the tuner or TV

set.

• Compact discs have much less noise than analog records

and hardly any noise is heard before play starts. Bear in

mind, therefore, that if the volume control on the amplifier

is set too high, you will risk damaging other audio

components.

• This player is designed to play music CDs only. It cannot

play CD-ROMs used with personal computers, game CDs,

video CDs or DVDs (video/audio).

3. FEATURES

• Play of unfinalized CD-R and CD-RW discs

• Manual cue function

supported

By setting the play start position in advance, play can

always be started at the preset position.

The PMD325 can play even partially once-written CD-R

and CD-RW discs that could not be played by conventional

CD players. Since unfinalized discs which have some

recording time left can be played, even partially edited

discs can be played.

• End warning function

When the end of the track being played is approached,

the end warning indicator starts flashing to signal that the

end of the track now playing is near.

• MP3 play and ID3 tag display supported

The PMD325 supports not only the play of CD-R and CD-

RW discs recorded with MP3 files but also the ID3 tags

which are the text information of MP3 files so that text giving

the track information or artists’ names can be displayed.

(Japanese characters cannot be displayed.)

• Wide range of play modes

Among the many play modes featured by the PMD325 are

single play (STOP, NEXT, RECUE), programmed play,

repeat play (ALL, 1-track, A-B) and auto pause.

• External control interfaces

• CD-TEXT displays supported

The PMD325 features RS-232C, parallel control I/O and

remote I/O as external control interfaces.

• Pitch control function

The PMD325 comes with a pitch control function that

enables the play speed (pitch) to be varied in a -12% to

+12% range. This is useful when practicing to play a

musical instrument.

• Timer play supported

• CS4396 high-performance D/A converter (made

by Cirrus Logic)

• Quick replay function

High-linearity play is achieved by oversampling the PCM

signals to 128fs inside the D/A converter and combining

dynamic element matching (DEM) with multi-element

switched capacitors.

By means of a single-touch action, the quick replay function

returns play to a position, which is a number of seconds

(setting range: 1 to 30 seconds) that has been set, before

the position of the track now playing. This enables you to

return and listen again to the section a little before the

position where the track is now playing.

• Digital and analog areas configured separately

The digital area consisting of the servo, decoder and

microcomputer circuitry is mounted en bloc on the CD

mechanism PCB away from the analog (audio circuitry)

area.

This keeps out the pulsive noise generated from the digital

area and yield a pure sound reproduction.

• End monitor function

By means of a single-touch action, the end monitor function

plays the end part of the track now playing for the duration

(setting range: 1 to 30 seconds) which has been set. This

makes it easy to check the end part of the track which is

now being played.

• Auto cue function

This enables play to start automatically from the position

where the sound begins.

“CD-TEXT” refers to a new kind of music disc which differs

from a conventional music disc in that album titles, track titles

and other text information are recorded on it. CDs with the

following logos support this function.

This means that discs with recorded CD-TEXT can be played

in the same way as in the past on existing CD players but the

text information can be viewed only when they are played on

a player that supports CD-TEXT.

This player automatically identifies whether a disc supports

OTHER FUNCTIONS

CR-R/CD-RW disc play

MP3

This player can play CD-R/CD-RW discs as well as discs

available on the market recorded using MP3 files (*).

The ID3 tag (*) is supported by this player. The album title,

track title and name of the artist can be displayed for the

track (file) on which the ID3 tag information has been recorded.

In addition to conventional music CDs and CD-R (recordable)

discs, this player can also play CD-RW (rewritable) discs. It

also supports the unfinalized discs that cannot be played by

regular CD players.

* “MP3” refers to music data which has been compressed by

a file format known as “MPEG-1 Audio Layer 3.” Files with

the “.mp3” or “.MP3” extension are called MP3 files.

• Playing unfinalized CD-R/CD-RW discs

CD players normally play only those discs on which the

TOC information (*) has been recorded. This means that

in order for a CD player to play a CD-R/CD-RW disc with

music recordings, the disc had to be “finalized” by writing

the TOC information onto it.

Discs for which this finalizing job has not been done are

called unfinalized discs, and this player is designed to

support the play of these unfinalized discs as well.

Consequently, even CD-R/CD-RW discs on which more

material is to be recorded can be enjoyed without further

ado using this player.

* “ID3 tag” refers to a format which adds the album title, track

titles, names of the artists and other text information to the

MP3 files.

• MP3 file playback

Playing albums in sequence

1. As with a music CD, place the disc recorded using the

MP3 files on the disc tray, and retract the disc tray.

2. Press the

button on the player or the button on the

remote control unit.

* “TOC” stands for the table of contents which contains

the total number of tracks, the total play time and other

such information on the disc. This information has been

recorded on the inner circumference area of the disc.

Play now starts in sequence from the first album (on a

folder by folder basis (*)). (See next section.)

With a disc recorded with MP3 files, it takes about 40

seconds after the player’s power has been turned on

∗

for the player’s system to be switched before initial play.

• Precautions for unfinalized CD-R/CD-RW

Selecting and playing albums (folders)

Select the desired album (on a folder by folder basis (*)) using

discs

the

button on the player or remote control unit.

Take care not to scratch or dirty the area near the innermost

circumference of unfinalized CD-R/CD-RW discs.

Scratches, dirt or other abnormalities in this area may make

it impossible for the disc to be read.

Play now starts in sequence from the selected album. The

album number appears on the display.

(AL xxx)

On unfinalized CD-R/CD-RW discs recorded using a CD

recorder for audio applications, provisional TOC information

is recorded in the PMA area (*) which is further inside from

the TOC information area. This player supports unfinalized

discs by reading the information in the PMA area, but

because this area is extremely narrow, any scratches, dirt

or other abnormalities here may make it impossible for discs

to be read.

On some discs, this area may be very difficult to read. In

cases like this, use the disc after using a CD recorder to

do the finalizing. It is recommended that the finalizing be

done before scratches or dirt makes it hard for the discs to

be read.

• Displaying the ID3 tag information

The following display appears when the TEXT button on the

remote control unit is pressed while playing an MP3 file disc

on which the ID3 tag information has been recorded.

During play

switched to the time display.)

* “PMA” stands for program memory area, and it refers to

the area where the provisional contents information such

as the number of tracks and play times recorded on the

CD-R/CD-RW discs is recorded. Discs cannot be played

by this player unless the PMA has been recorded properly.

This player supports the discs which have been recorded

by any recorder that complies with the “Orange Book” of

CD-R/CD-RW standards.

∗

The player can play only those discs recorded in the music

format (CD-DA) or using MP3 files.

∗

If there is not much recording time, it may be difficult for

the data to be read out, and it may cause error.
