11ENGLISH7 PLAYING MP3 FILESThere are many sites on the Internet from which youcan download music files in MP3 format. These filescan be downloaded following the instructions on thesite and stored on CD-R/RW discs which can then beplayed on the DN-C635.The music on commercially available music CDs canbe converted into MP3 files on a computer using MP3encoding programs. When this is done, the data isreduced to approximately 1/10 the original size. ThisMP3 data can then be stored on a CD-R/RW disc,allowing you to create a single 12 cm CD-R/RW disccontaining about 10 times more music than a normalmusic CD, that is some 100 tracks or more (*).* This is an approximately value for MP3 files oftracks about 5 minutes long converted at a standardbit rate (128 kbps) and stored on a CD-R/RW discwith a capacity of 650 MB.✽ Recordings you make are for your personal use andshould not be used in ways infringing upon thecopyright holder as per copyright laws.✽ MP3 may require time for reading.✽ With disc condition it may not play properly.NOTES :• The DN-C635 is compatible with “MPEG-1 AudioLayer-3”, “MPEG-2 Audio Layer-3” and “MPEG-2.5 Audio Layer-3”. It is not compatible with MP1or MP2 standards.SAMPLING FREQUENCY• When writing MP3 files on a CD-R/RW disc, setthe writing program’s format to “ISO9660 level 1”or “ISO9660 level 2”, “Joliet” or “Romeo”. MP3files written in other formats may not playproperly. With some writing programs it is notpossible to record in “ISO9660” format. Use an“ISO9660” format writing program.• Generally speaking, the higher the MP3 file’s bitrate, the better the sound quality. With the DN-C635 it is recommended to use MP3 files writtenwith a bit rate of 128 kbps or greater.• The writing program may change the positions ofthe folders and files when writing the MP3 fileson the CD-R/RW disc, so the files may not beplayed in the expected order.• Make sure to give MP3 files the extension“.MP3”. Files with extensions other than “.MP3”or without extensions cannot be played. (OnMacintosh computers, MP3 files can be played byadding the extension “.MP3” after the file nameconsisting of a maximum of 8 Roman capitalletters and / or numerals when recording them onCD-R/RW discs.)• To protect copyrights, no digital signals are outputwhen playing MP3 files.• A maximum of 255 folders can be played on theDN-C635. Folders over 8 layers down, however,cannot be played. The maximum number of filesis also 999. If there are 1,000 files, only the first999 are played. (Files other than those with theextension “.MP3” are not counted.)• On the DN-C635, folder and file names can bedisplayed like titles. Roman capital letters and/ornumerals and “__” (underscores) are scrolled.(However, a maximum of 31 characters can bedisplayed.) In addition, folder and file names usingother symbols will not be displayed properly.• The DN-C635 is compatible with ID3-tag (Ver. 1.*,Ver. 2.0).• It may not be possible to play some CD-R/RWdiscs due to dirt, scratches or the disc’sproperties.• Do not apply seals or tape to the label or signalside of CDs or CD-R/RW discs. The glue could geton the disc surface, making the disc get stuckinside the set.• The DN-C635 is multi-session compatible.Only music CDs can be played if the first sessionis a music CD, and only MP3 files can be played ifthe first session consists of MP3 files.• The DN-C635 is compatible with play lists.(.m3u of WINAMP Form) (Preset functions)MPEG 1.0 48 kHzMPEG 2.0MPEG 2.5 12 kHz24 kHz44.10 kHz11.03 kHz22.05 kHz32 kHz08 kHz16 kHzNOTES:• With some writing programs it may not playproperly. In this case, please set to“PLst=OFF”.• Play List may require time for reading.• The maximum number of play lists is also 255.If there are over 255 play lists, only the first255 are performed.1. Press the PITCH button !5.• The pitch LED is flashed.• The play speed decreases when the pitch slideris moved upwards, increases when the pitchslider is moved downwards.2. Press the PITCH button !5 again.• The pitch LED is lit.• The play speed set with the pitch slider is held.In this state, the play speed will not change evenif the pitch slider is moved.• When the playback speed is preset in the presetmode, that play speed is set.3. Press the PITCH button !5 again to return to thenormal speed.• The pitch LED is turned off.( 7) Playing at a different pitch(PITCH)NOTE:• When the play speed is changed, the samplingfrequency of the digital output signal alsochanges, so it may not be possible to receivedigital signals.
