MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer-3) is the compression format of digital
audio. This is developed by MPEG (Motion Picture Experts
Group). Using this compression format, you can record the
contents of about 10 music CDs on a single CD. (This figure
refers to data recorded on a 650 MB CD-R or CD-RW at a fixed
bit rate of 128 kbps and a sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz.)

MP3 encoding and CD writing software programs are not
supplied with this unit.

¡

High bit rate and high sampling frequency are recommended
