ENGLISH (7) Playing at a different pitch (PITCH) 1. Press the PITCH button !5. • The pitch LED is flashed. • The play speed decreases when the pitch slider is moved upwards, increases when the pitch slider 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 even if the pitch slider is moved. • When the playback speed is preset in the preset mode, that play speed is set. 3. Press the PITCH button !5 again to return to the normal speed. • The pitch LED is turned off. NOTE: • When the play speed is changed, the sampling frequency of the digital output signal also changes, so it may not be possible to receive digital signals. 7 PLAYING MP3 FILES There are many sites on the Internet from which you can download music files in MP3 format. These files can be downloaded following the instructions on the site and stored on CD-R/RW discs which can then be played on the DN-C635. The music on commercially available music CDs can be converted into MP3 files on a computer using MP3 encoding programs. When this is done, the data is reduced to approximately 1/10 the original size. This MP3 data can then be stored on a CD-R/RW disc, allowing you to create a single 12 cm CD-R/RW disc containing about 10 times more music than a normal music CD, that is some 100 tracks or more (*). * This is an approximately value for MP3 files of tracks about 5 minutes long converted at a standard bit rate (128 kbps) and stored on a CD-R/RW disc with a capacity of 650 MB. ✽ Recordings you make are for your personal use and should not be used in ways infringing upon the copyright 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 Audio Layer-3", "MPEG-2 Audio Layer-3" and "MPEG2.5 Audio Layer-3". It is not compatible with MP1 or MP2 standards. SAMPLING FREQUENCY MPEG 1.0 48 kHz 44.10 kHz 32 kHz MPEG 2.0 24 kHz 22.05 kHz 16 kHz MPEG 2.5 12 kHz 11.03 kHz 08 kHz • When writing MP3 files on a CD-R/RW disc, set the writing program's format to "ISO9660 level 1" or "ISO9660 level 2", "Joliet" or "Romeo". MP3 files written in other formats may not play properly. With some writing programs it is not possible to record in "ISO9660" format. Use an "ISO9660" format writing program. • Generally speaking, the higher the MP3 file's bit rate, the better the sound quality. With the DNC635 it is recommended to use MP3 files written with a bit rate of 128 kbps or greater. • The writing program may change the positions of the folders and files when writing the MP3 files on the CD-R/RW disc, so the files may not be played 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. (On Macintosh computers, MP3 files can be played by adding the extension ".MP3" after the file name consisting of a maximum of 8 Roman capital letters and / or numerals when recording them on CD-R/RW discs.) • To protect copyrights, no digital signals are output when playing MP3 files. • A maximum of 255 folders can be played on the DN-C635. Folders over 8 layers down, however, cannot be played. The maximum number of files is also 999. If there are 1,000 files, only the first 999 are played. (Files other than those with the extension ".MP3" are not counted.) • On the DN-C635, folder and file names can be displayed like titles. Roman capital letters and/or numerals and "__" (underscores) are scrolled. (However, a maximum of 31 characters can be displayed.) In addition, folder and file names using other 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/RW discs due to dirt, scratches or the disc's properties. • Do not apply seals or tape to the label or signal side of CDs or CD-R/RW discs. The glue could get on the disc surface, making the disc get stuck inside the set. • The DN-C635 is multi-session compatible. Only music CDs can be played if the first session is a music CD, and only MP3 files can be played if the first session consists of MP3 files. • The DN-C635 is compatible with play lists. (.m3u of WINAMP Form) (Preset functions) NOTES: • With some writing programs it may not play properly. 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 first 255 are performed. 11
