About MP3

The music compression technology MP3
(MPEG1 Audio Layer 3) significantly reduce
the digital data of an audio CD while main-
taining CD quality sound.

•

Getting MP3 files:

you can either down-

load legal music files from the internet to
your computer hard disc, or create such files
by converting audio CD files in your com-
puter through appropriate encoder software.
(128kbps bit rate or higher is recommended
for MP3 files.)

•

Creating a MP3 CD:

burn the music files

from your computer hard disc on a CDR or
CDRW using your CD burner.

Helpful hints:

–

Make sure that the file names of the MP3 files
end with

.mp3.

– 

Total number of music files and albums: around
350 (with a typical file name length of 20 char-
acters)

– 

The length of file names affects the number of
tracks for playback. With shorter file names, more
files can be burned on a disc.
