Points to remember when making MP3 files
¡ High bit rate and high sampling frequency are recom-
mended for high quality sounds.
¡ Selecting VBR (Variable Bit Rate) is not recommended
because playing time is not displayed properly and sound
may be skipped.
¡ The playback sound quality differs depending on the
encoding circumstances. For details, refer to the user
manual of your own encoding software and writing soft-
ware.
¡ It is recommended to set the bit rate to “128 kbps or

ed.)
Caution
Never assign the “.mp3”, file name extension to
a file that is not in the MP3 format. This may
not only produce noise from the speaker dam-
age, but also damage your hearing.
Notes:
¡ This unit counts the number of folders irrespective of the
presence or absence of an MP3 file.
¡ If the selected folder does not contain any MP3 files, the
nearest MP3 files in the order of playback will be played.
¡ Playback order may be different from other MP3 players
even if the same disc is used.
