What is MP3?
MP3 is an audio compression method and clas-

This audio compression method has penetrated
into PC users and become a standard format.
2. Tracks are played in the order that they were
recorded onto a disc. (Tracks might not always
be played in the order displayed on the PC.)
3. Some noise may occur depending on the type
of encoder software used while recording.
This MP3 features the original audio data com-
pression to about 10 percent of its initial size
with a high sound quality. This means that about
10 music CDs can be recorded on a CD-R disc
or CD-RW disc to allow a long listening time
without having to change CDs.
Multisession function
When a disc contains both normal CD type tracks
and MP3/WMA type tracks mixedly, you can se-

between CD type or MP3/WMA type. The follow-
ing indication appears in the title display when

agement) for WMA remaining ON, no audio is
output.
