corder.
Playing MP3 files
MP3 files may be found in two formats: Constant Bit Rate (CBR) and Variable Bit Rate (VBR). This component supports playback
and DJ play with both CBR and VBR type MP3 files, but in comparison with CBR files, files recorded in VBR format will experience
slower search and super-fast search speeds. As a result, when operating speed is most important, the use of the CBR recording
format is recommended for MP3 files.
MP3 files must follow the format requirements listed below.

Notes:
¶ Some CD-R/CD-RW discs recorded on standalone record-
ers or computer drives may not be playable back on this

istics, scratches, dirt, player lens dirt or condensation, etc.
¶ Some discs recorded on computer drives may not be
playable on this player, depending on the recording appli-
cation used, its settings, and operating environment. Be
sure to use the correct formatting for the discs used. For
details, consult the application author.
¶ This unit cannot play partially recorded CD-R or CD-RW
discs that have not been finalized.
¶ For detailed information regarding the handling of CD-R/
CD-RW discs, consult the handling precautions supplied
with each disc.
I Regarding CD-R/RW discs
Due to the unique construction of CD-R/RW discs, leaving
them for extended periods of time in the pause (or cue
standby) mode at a single point may result in the discs' be-
coming difficult to play at that place. The same symptom may
also occur if the loop function is used to play back a single
point on the disc excessively.
As a result, users are advised to construct backup archive
discs when playing discs containing important data.
